An independent editorial briefing on every active US buyback program.

BuybackStocks tracks every Form 10b-18 disclosure, every 8-K authorization, every 10-Q issuer-purchase table — and tells you which ones actually matter.

Our mission

Roughly $1 trillion of US corporate cash returns to shareholders each year through share repurchase programs, per S&P Dow Jones Indices and major broker estimates. That demand is the single largest source of US equity buying — and most retail investors have no visibility into who is buying back, when, or how much remains authorized.

BuybackStocks fills that gap with a disciplined editorial workflow: read every relevant SEC filing the day it drops on EDGAR, decode it for context, and publish a daily digest that names what changed, why it matters, and where the source filing lives. Free for readers. Independent in editorial. SEC §17(b) disclosed when coverage is sponsored.

Editorial principles

Filings, not opinions

Every published figure traces to a specific SEC filing on EDGAR. If we can't link the source, we don't print the number. Editorial commentary is clearly distinguished from filed disclosures.

Independence in editorial coverage

Coverage of publicly available SEC filings — 10b-18 tables, 8-K announcements, 10-Q disclosures — is independent and unpaid. No issuer, agency, or sponsor influences the editorial digest or rankings.

Sponsored features are always labeled

When BuybackStocks publishes paid issuer coverage, every surface is labeled: email subject prefix, top-of-email banner, in-body disclosure box, footer reiteration, SMS prefix. The full Securities Act §17(b) compensation disclosure is published at /disclosures/.

Not investment advice

BuybackStocks publishes editorial commentary on publicly disclosed corporate buyback activity. Nothing on the site is investment advice, a recommendation to buy or sell any security, or a personalized financial recommendation. Readers should consult a qualified financial professional before making investment decisions. BuybackStocks is not registered as an investment adviser.

Corrections

If we get a fact wrong, write to editorial@buybackstocks.com. Material corrections are added to the original page and noted in the next day's digest.
