The parent company of #Walgreens spent $69M on stock buybacks in Nov 2023.
As best as I can tell from this chart, #CVS buys back about $3bil every March (https://www.tipranks.com/stocks/cvs/buybacks)
So #CNN, when you write an article about how companies are downsizing, be sure to include #stockBuybacks.
These corporations are enriching their leadership and their stockholders because that is what #Capitalism says they should do. The could choose to be stewards of #healthcare. They don't
