A reverse split is usually an action taken when the price of a
stock is very low -- like, sub-$. By raising the price, the
company can create new markets for its stock. For example,
if a stock is trading at $.75 and splits 10:1, it's new price of
$7.50 will make it optionable and also of greater interest to
institutions.
