President Donald Trump said he wants a massive coronavirus stimulus bill under debate in Congress to ban stock buy-backs by companies that receive federal aid.

“I don’t want to have stock buybacks,” he said Friday at a White House news conference. “I don’t like buybacks. I didn’t like them the first time.”
