How are stock buybacks any worse than dividend payouts to investors?
I get how they are logistically different, but to me, whether you give the investors cash that they use to buy more stock, or you internally increase the value of a stock by buying it back with company funds, the result is the same – Investors get richer at the cost of investment.
Not saying buybacks aren’t bad, but I guess I just don’t understand the hate relative to dividend payments.

Buyback are investigating in yout self. Dividends are investing in others. I see the difference.
