“Don't buy anything unless it's 15 to 20% below that price. That's how you get equity without market appreciation”
“If companies buy back 10% of equity, static investors must see price rise ~20% to stay at 50-50 allocation.”

What was described
Illustrated how static 50/50 investors cause stock price to rise 20% when companies buy back 10% of equity, because static investors must rebalance to target weights
10% buyback → 20% price rise; 1% buyback → 2% price rise (for 50/50 static investors)
