A lot of companies have very large cash reserves (ex: Apple). Should these companies distribute this cash to investors?

- nemo44x 6y agoDoesn’t Apple pay a dividend? They also use it to buyback shares, which is essentially the same.
- Scoundreller 6y agoToken foreigner here: I prefer buybacks. Dividends have all kinds of messy tax implications. Cap gains don’t! e.g.: Most countries tax foreign dividends at full income tax rates. 15-30% IRS withholding taxes on dividends.
