Share repurchases increased in each following quarter, approaching $199 billion again in the second quarter of 2021.<blockquote>标普500的回购额从2020年第一季度的近1990亿美元骤降至第二季度的略低于890亿美元，因为受疫情爆发影响的公司纷纷采取行动节省现金。接下来的每个季度，股票回购都在增加，2021年第二季度再次接近1990亿美元。</blockquote> Repurchases can support stocks by reducing a company’s share count, boosting its per-share profits.

Ms. Wickland said she believes the shares are undervalued and continues to like them.<blockquote>她的团队在夏天购买了洛克希德·马丁公司的股票，部分原因是该国防公司的股票回购计划和股息收益率。10月26日，洛克希德公司股价下跌12%，此前该公司公布的季度销售额低于预期，并下调了全年销售预期。威克兰女士表示，她认为这些股票被低估，并继续看好它们。</blockquote> Stock buybacks have come under fire from politicians who say companies should use cash to invest in their businesses instead of supporting their share prices. The version of the&nbsp;$2 trillion education, healthcare and climate spending package&nbsp;that passed the House in November would create a 1% tax on the net value of a company’s stock buybacks.<blockquote>股票回购受到了政界人士的批评，他们表示公司应该使用现金投资于业务，而不是支撑股价。众议院11月通过的2万亿美元教育、医疗保健和气候支出计划将对公司股票回购的净值征收1%的税。</blockquote> The Senate hasn’t voted yet, but the buyback tax has so far generated less corporate opposition than the bill’s other tax increases. Strategists at BofA Global Research project that the proposed tax would result in a 0.3% reduction to S&amp;P 500 per-share earnings, assuming that companies didn’t change the amount of stock they repurchase.<blockquote>参议院尚未投票，但迄今为止，与该法案的其他增税相比，回购税引起的企业反对较少。美国银行全球研究策略师预计，假设公司不改变回购股票的数量，拟议的税收将导致标普500每股收益减少0.3%。</blockquote> Several investors said they don’t believe the tax would have much of an effect on companies’ behavior if it became law. “The 1% tax on buybacks is so low that I don’t think it will impact anything,” said Olivier Sarfati, head of equities at wealth-management firm GenTrust.<blockquote>一些投资者表示，他们认为如果该税成为法律，不会对公司的行为产生太大影响。财富管理公司GenTrust股票主管Olivier Sarfati表示：“1%的回购税非常低，我认为不会产生任何影响。”</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Buybacks Hit Record After Pulling Back in 2020<blockquote>回购在2020年撤回后创下历史新高</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nBuybacks Hit Record After Pulling Back in 2020<blockquote>回购在2020年撤回后创下历史新高</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nThe Wall Street Journal2021-12-13 07:18\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nTrend expected to continue as S&amp;P 500 companies top $234 billion in third-quarter repurchases<blockquote>标普500公司第三季度回购额突破2340亿美元，预计这一趋势将持续</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c9ced9a4cf63d42d213b2637cf6e6251\" tg-width=\"1290\" tg-height=\"884\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Hertz Global Holdings is among the companies planning to buy back shares, recently putting the amount at as much as $2 billion of its stock.<blockquote>赫兹全球控股公司是计划回购股票的公司之一，最近回购的股票金额高达20亿美元。</blockquote> Stock buybacks are back.<blockquote>股票回购又回来了。</blockquote> Companies in the S&amp;P 500 repurchased $234.5 billion in shares during the third quarter, topping the previous record of $223 billion in the fourth quarter of 2018, according to preliminary data from S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices.
