US companies are planning to buy back shares at a record pace. According to Birinyi Associates data, as of August 20, announced share buybacks have exceeded $1 trillion, the shortest time on record. Large companies have approved large-scale buybacks in the past few months. Apple announced that it would buy back $100 billion of shares after reporting quarterly results in May. Alphabet, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and others have also announced buybacks of at least $40 billion. The total amount of buybacks announced by US companies last month reached 166 billion US dollars, setting a record for July. Rubin, president of Birinyi Associates, expects the total amount of buybacks announced by the end of the year to reach 1.30 trillion US dollars. However, the buybacks have also drawn the ire of some members of the Trump administration, with Treasury Secretary Vincent Bescent on Wednesday singling out Boeing for "massive" buybacks rather than investing in research and development.
