Why Nvidia Is Buying $150 Billion of Itself?

Nvidia’s board just authorized another $150 billion to buy Nvidia shares. Remaining room: $235 billion, through fiscal 2028. They called it the largest authorization increase in history. A share is a slice of the company. A buyback is the company using cash to buy slices and retire them. Same shop. Fewer slices. Each remaining slice is a bigger piece. That paper is a ceiling, not a truck of cash leaving Santa Clara today. July-quarter cash in the drawer was $22.44 billion. Jensen Huang said cash generation lets them invest in the tech and return capital. Comment **ALLOWED** or **SPENT**. Not financial advice. Educational and entertainment only. Not a buy or sell on Nvidia or any stock.
