There's also a tremendous amount of stock buy back happening, which means less money is being distributed to investors and more is being used to prop up the prices.
There's plenty of other places to put money though.
- ThrustVectoring 7y agoStock buybacks are a way of distributing money to investors. It's functionally equivalent to a dividend.
- BubRoss 7y agoStock buybacks give money to investors but are taxed as capital gains and not income.
- alasdair_ 7y agoThe whole point of stock buybacks is that they are the same as paying a dividend but the tax impact is much better. I’d prefer that all stocks did a buyback instead of paying a dividend.
