Good question Mike..... and the answer to A is IDK....

The answer to B is — yes and no.

The P/E ratio doesn’t change - so the stocks actual representative value is static....in the sense that a split doesn’t “Add” value... but making the stock affordable to purchase by a broader range of investors, I think would help it increase in price.

Someone like me that buys 10,000 to 30,000 shares of a name — and I hold 200 of Amazon (AMZN)? But the point of making it more or less valuable doesn’t change....

Let’s say they did a 10 for 1 — so I’d now have 2000 shares... Now does it go up and down $2.00 a day vs $20 ?? Doesn’t really matter... it’s the same money.
