Apple Inc. (AAPL)’s $110 billion stock buyback announcement is the largest stock buyback program in recent history, beating its own record set in 2018.
The tech giant has made such dominant share repurchases that no other U.S. company has broken into the top five, and it ties with Chevron (CVX) for the sixth spot, according to data compiled by Birinyi Associates.
Buybacks for rivals don’t even compare. Meta Platforms’ (META) highest is $50 billion from earlier this year, while Google-parent Alphabet’s (GOOGL) peaks at $70 billion announced last week. Microsoft’s (MSFT) $60 billion share buyback announced in 2021 was its largest.
Apple shares were up over 7% on Friday, trading at $185.2 at 2:50 p.m. Eastern.

There are potentially big changes coming to homebuying and selling this summer, and while no one is sure exactly how everything will play out, there’s at least a date: Aug. 17.
That’s the deadline for properties listed on real estate databases called Multiple Listing Services to remove an information box specifying how much buyers’ agents will make in commission when the home is sold, the National Association of Realtors said Friday.
The NAR offered that and other details about how it will implement details of a historic settlement it reached this March, ending a class-action lawsuit by sellers that accused the NAR of colluding to keep agent fees high. Starting on that date, buyers working with an agent will have to sign an agreement before touring any properties together.
Real estate agents and other experts say the changes could result in lower fees for agents representing buyers, or more people house-hunting on their own without one, among other possible changes to the homebuying process.

Fortinet (FTNT) shares tumbled as the cybersecurity firm’s billings and product revenue declined, outweighing higher-than-forecast results for the first quarter.
Billings, a measure that includes unrealized revenue which the company uses to help indicate future business, dropped 6.4% to $1.41 billion. However, overall revenue advanced 7.2% to $1.35 billion, with adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.43. Both exceeded estimates.
Founder and CEO Ken Xie said Fortinet capitalized on the “fast-growing” Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) which is VPN and cloud security-related. However, analysts at Mizuho said competition in the cybersecurity space is fierce and the new initiatives may not be enough to set them apart.
Despite the droll billings reading, the company raised full-year guidance of adjusted EPS to a range of $1.73 to $1.79, and revenue at $5.75 billion to $5.85 billion.
Fortinet wasn't the only cybersecurity firm that posted lower results as companies grapple with enterprise customers tightening their budgets amid an uncertain macroeconomic outlook and intense competition.
Shares in global cloud services provider Cloudflare (NET) also plunged Friday after the company issued a soft current-quarter sales outlook.
Fortinet shares were down 8.5% at $59.68 each as of about 12:07 p.m. ET, while those of Cloudflare were 18% lower at $73.36.
