Vodafone Group PLC shares surged 6.4% over five days, peaking above $9.70 after the telecom giant unveiled a €2 billion share repurchase program. The buyback signals management’s commitment to shareholder value despite a €1.48 billion annual pretax loss.

Investor Optimism prevailed in pre-market trading as the capital return initiative outweighed concerns about German market challenges. The stock had reached $9.64 by May 19 before the buyback announcement propelled it further.

This strategic MOVE comes alongside a dividend cut, reflecting Vodafone’s balanced approach to capital allocation. Market participants appear to reward the company’s focus on structural improvements over short-term payouts.
