Google has $100B+ of cash and is giving out $10B/yr as a dividend. I think they will be able to scrape something together if they have a good idea.

- endisneigh 2y agoYes - and what they’ve decided is a dividend. It’s the first in their history. I’m not saying it’s good or bad, but it’s something.
- lupire 2y agoThe interesting part is why they chose to issue a dividend instead of sticking only with a theoretically equivalent buyback.

- futureshock 2y agoThat’s not a terrible guess. Together they own 56% of the voting shares and maintain control of the company. A divided puts money in their pocket without needing to sell any of their class B 10x voting shares.
