However, considering current metrics, I consider the short term return / attraction of a buyback is fairly even
balanced against the
potentially higher returns on offer from a (gradual) investment of their
cash into distressed assets.
To sum it up, there are cards out there with
potentially higher cash back earning, but Chase Freedom Unlimited ® strikes a good
balance of flat - rate
cash back, tempting welcome offer, introductory low APR on purchases and
balance transfers and other card benefits.
