Although share buybacks are never ever an indication for you to buy the stock, it instills certain confidence when the company deploys its own cash to fund share repurchases.

It is an independent and individual judgement of how you view the issue. Unless you work in the company and have access to management’s decisions, your guess is always as good as ours.
