Sonki, re. stock split, see the following excerpt from a Bloomberg article (seems it is Dec. 9 we should be looking at): Vioxx and a similar drug from Monsanto Co., Celebrex, could eventually have combined sales of $5 billion because they can treat pain and inflammation without irritating the stomach, analysts have said. Prospects for Vioxx have helped boost Merck's share price in the past month, leading to speculation it might announce a stock split at its Dec. 9 analyst meeting. ''It sure seems like they should,'' said Cynthia Beach, an analyst with Gerard Klauer Mattison, who has a ''buy'' on Merck. ''They're overdue for one.''
