The Investment Thread

IMG_4861.jpeg
Best Buy has seen declining revenues the last 5 years (2020-2024).

They have over a billion dollars in long term debt that they aren’t touching.

Since 2020 Best Buy has spent $5.7 billion on stock buybacks and have paid out $3.1 billion in dividends.

I do not see how that is a wise strategy. They spent $8.8 billion on buybacks and dividends when their business model is failing.

It’s like they looked at Bed Bath and Beyond’s playbook and are doing the exact same thing.
That is because they are all following the same public company C-suite playbook. Extract cash from the company, file bankruptcy, leave the US tax payer on the hook.
