Jin10 Data, September 11 - JPMorgan expects that the scale of stock buybacks in the United States will increase by an additional $600 billion on top of this year's record $1.5 trillion. In just eight months, the global buyback scale has reached last year's $1.37 trillion, which means it could reach $1.9 trillion by 2025, an increase of 38%. Despite strong volume, buybacks relative to market capitalization remain below historical peaks (2.6% in 2007 and 5% in 2007). While IPO activity is sluggish, record stock buybacks are reducing the supply of stocks for the fourth consecutive year, continuing to support the market.
