As of Q2 2023, our non-financial companies hold the largest cash and marketable securities. Big portion of this amount was from big tech companies.

Apple $167 b

Google $118 b

Microsoft $111 b

Amazon $64 b

Even though these big tech companies have started paying little dividends as well as some large ones, they still hold substantial cash.Now the question is what to do with this money. Do you think they should give another large dividend and/or increase dividends payments substantially to its shareholders or keep buying back their own shares even though their stock prices are up substantially this year? Our focus here is trying to find the best idea that will increase the shareholders' wealth.
