WSJ: Nvidia's Buybacks Created Phantom Value
Original: How Nvidia's Buyback Created Phantom Value https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/how-nvidias-buyback-created-phantom-value-
The Wall Street Journal reports that Nvidia's massive share buyback program has inflated the company's market value beyond what its underlying business fundamentals justify, describing the effect as phantom value. The piece examines how repurchasing shares boosts earnings per share and stock prices without creating real economic gains, raising questions about how much of Nvidia's trillion-dollar valuation reflects genuine demand for its AI chips versus financial engineering.
Why now: Nvidia's stock has been central to the AI-driven market rally, so scrutiny of whether its valuation is real is drawing wide attention
