webral,

The big issue issue is lack of buyers.

I believe that relates to not enough people knowing about the company, lack of liquidity and people that do know about DGX think they're one dimensional. That's why I questioned the buyback.

True the buyback will improve the financials of the business, possible higher yield, lower P/E etc, but its share price appreciation that I would be thinking people are after.

An alternative is GCS, its incredibly well run and just pumped out a profit upgrade on top of the recent guidance. The one glaring difference between the two - diversification.

They hit a 30 month high yesterday.
