Hopefully in a day or two it shows up.


You not only got a split -- they raised the dividend 6%.... what's not to like about that. I see they also received approval for the split off (AbbVie) to join the S&P 100 and 500 indexes. Usually that means that Mutual Funds and ETFs that mimic, or trade in, those indexes will buy those shares. That should be viewed as a positive.
