that I still do, but my belief based on what I have read in doing some research is that the buyback, if there is one, will be done with post-tax proceeds. I looked for any way possible that a corporate entity could use buyback funds as a sort of traditional IRA. I just don`t believe there is such a way and that of course will limit the purchasing power. But what do I know - I`m a mud Marine with very limited knowledge of business matters. Regards
