Case update: can bonus clawback be a restraint of trade?
As a matter of public policy, individuals should be free to carry out work without undue interference. Contractual terms that attempt to restrict an individual’s freedom to work will as a result be subject to particular scrutiny and can be deemed an unreasonable (and so unlawful) restraint of trade. Terms will not amount to undue interference if they go no further than is necessary to protect the legitimate commercial interest of the employer.

In Lycatel Services Ltd v Schneider the proper approach to assessing which was the more appropriate judicial venue was examined by the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT).

Can Billion Dollar Buybacks Boost Stock Prices
Buybacks can also be a way for companies to return excess cash to shareholders, as they can provide an alternative to dividends. Instead of paying out cash to shareholders, the company can use the cash to buy back its stock, which can then be sold by the shareholders for a profit.

How to Play the Coming Market Cleanup - Including Five Names To Watch
The sell-side argument is that interest rates are rising, and rising rates raise the carry cost for holding gold. That is, physical gold is “just metal” and doesn’t pay a dividend. So, every ounce in the vault is a missed opportunity to generate cash. And the imputed loss on gold (i.e., versus holding cash) is greater when interest rates are high. It’s not difficult to understand the argument, but I don’t buy it. Because look at the situation from a different angle.
