What is share buyback?
Share buyback refers to a behavior of listed companies using cash to repurchase a certain amount of outstanding shares on the stock market. After the share buyback, the company can cancel the repurchased shares. This will reduce the number of outstanding shares in circulation, thus achieving positive effects such as market cap management, stock-based incentive, and stable stock price.
