With the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates by a half point two weeks ago, buyback activity is likely to pick up, and continue the upward trend seen thus far in 2024. Matt Maley, Chief Market Strategist at Miller Tabak shares what he's taking away from the recent buyback action.

He also dives into the latest oil price movements and his sentiments on the earnings guidance given the recent jumbo rate cut by the Federal Reserve.
