what dissysco, microsoft, oracle and intel have in common? are buying stocks at very high levels because that had so much cash on their books. you heard people say this or that stock has so much in kark and it's cheap. must be bought. as if cash per se is somehow a bullish thing. maybe in a high interest rate environment it might be good because companies get extra income, but unless rates are high, cash by itself actually means very little. what really matters is how companies put that cash to work. sure they can give you nice dividends but those yields haven't met much in terms of a floor. these titans have bought back a lot of stock and bought it back badly. you can buy stock badly, often too high. they buy their own stock at any height, at any time. in short, sysco, microsoft, oracle and intel may have a lot of cash but that's been wasted on undisciplined buy backs and when you see a company doing that, time to walk away. here's what you might not know, it's called windham worldwide run by one of the most shareholder friendly people today
