Tax avoidance

Shouldn't this text mention that stock buyback can be a way to avoid taxation.

According to CNN: "Share repurchases are a way for companies to return cash to shareholders indirectly, without them having to pay taxes as they would on a stock dividend." https://edition.cnn.com/2023/04/25/business/bed-bath-beyond-share-repurchases/index.html 177.224.183.92 (talk) 00:02, 19 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the suggestion and link. I added it. It is not a way to avoid taxation, but to pay taxes when you want (when you sell the stock). ---Avatar317 ^(talk) 00:49, 22 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Well, I guess if you combine that with the stepped-up basis loophole, it can be used for avoiding tax – but the source doesn't mention that, so we shouldn't either. —AlphaMikeOmega (talk) 23:17, 29 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
