What do we mean when we say "share cannibals?" We're talking about companies that are so acquisitive that they regularly buy back their own stock. Why might this be an interesting strategy for value investors? Because share cannibals are typically companies with strong balance sheets and a lot of cash on hand. They're usually in industries with high barriers to entry, which means they have a lot of pricing power. And they're usually run by shareholder-friendly management teams. In short, share cannibals are usually high-quality businesses that are trading at attractive prices. If you can find one that you think is undervalued, it could be a great investment.
