Slightly disagree

No, the biggest beneficiary of stock buybacks are pension funds and mutual funds

While the Union of Centrists might acknowledge the benefits of stock buybacks to pension funds and mutual funds, they would likely still support measures to ensure that these practices do not contribute to wealth inequality. Therefore, they might not fully agree with this statement, hence the slightly negative score.

Slightly disagree

No, there is no evidence that firms that engage in buybacks reduce their investments

The Union of Centrists might not fully agree with this statement as it implies a laissez-faire approach to corporate behavior, which is not fully aligned with their political ideology. However, they might also recognize the validity of the argument that buybacks do not necessarily reduce investments, hence the slightly negative score.
