Default COKE STOCK SPLIT 2 for 1

Well good morning gents....


Any of you hear about the COKE (KO) TWO FOR ONE STOCK SPLIT?? Splits July 27th and you should see the shares in your account early August...


Does this mean anything? Well.... yes and no.

A stock split all by itself just means that you'll now have twice as many shares at half the cost per share. So there is ZERO value change. BUT.... at some point it becomes what I call the "law of large numbers"... so a .10 share price move is now multiplied by the number of shares you have... and any dividends etc - should they decide to raise them also see that same affect.
