It buys them for your country, because your country was the original owner of those shares. So they were bought back when you retracted the order. You can click "perform a public offering" to issue new shares. |

But you used to be able to spend corp money to reduce the number of overal shares that is what I want to do and why can't I do that |

You're right. Retracting shares is a different thing than the majority share owner buying shares, but unfortunately this game doesn't allow us to do that. |

Nothing is changed in the share market for a very long period. (except for some parameters that regulate IPO activity).
The country can retract shares and can try to purchase all the shares of the corporation it does not own.
In the real world, corporations can purchase their own shares back.
This is not a major feature in the real world and does not make sense in the game.
If a corporation has 100M shares and it owns them all, or 50 million shares and it owns them all, does not make a difference.
In fact, we could extend the share split and reverse split feature to private corporations and have the number of shares depend on their value. |
