Are you interested in investing in stocks but not sure where to start? One important aspect to consider is stock splits, which can impact the value and affordability of shares. At Extreme Investor Network, we keep you informed about upcoming stock splits to help you make informed investment decisions.
Stock splits are corporate actions where a company issues additional common shares to increase the number of outstanding shares. This typically leads to a decrease in the stock price while maintaining the overall market capitalization. On the other hand, reverse stock splits consolidate shares, reducing the number of outstanding shares and increasing the share price.
Companies often undertake stock splits to improve the liquidity of their shares and make them more affordable for retail investors. Let’s take a look at some of the upcoming stock splits happening this week:
