why would buybacks do a gd thing when organic 10%+ QoQ sequential growth does nothing?

qoq growth doesn't necessarily create more buying pressure with analysts posting about stormy clouds. buy back is guaranteed money being poured into buying the stock. even with a bearish forecast, less shares outstanding will give a bump up to the models/price target.
