Made and then sent to investors for short term gain. If memory serves:
$40B in share buybacks to juice the C-level shares so when it all goes pear-shaped they will already have cashed out nicely.
$20B in share dividends to help the above and pour some oil on the water of investor distress that *maybe* management is taking a short term view for management gain and not investing in the future of the company for the long term.
