The buyback comes after a powerful run in the shares, with a year to date share price return of about 69% and a three year total shareholder return above 300%. This suggests momentum is still firmly with the bulls, even if short term moves remain choppy.

If this kind of capital return story has your attention, it could be a good moment to see what else is out there and explore fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.
