The microscope is being turned on the share buyback schemes in the US and how it is leaving companies unduly exposed to risk for what they are essentially calling a Ponzi scheme.

Alibaba announced yesterday a major share buy back. I guess it depends when share buy backs are acceptable (causing bull runs or during crashes?)

Biggest ponzi scheme is paying income taxes for a service you may or may not receive later on. Can you point me of any ponzi schemes about in today's major market crash? Who's got cash left over to create a ponzi?
