Tim A and all: ERICY is having a STOCK DIVIDEND NOT a split. That is why total capitalization goes up in proportion to the shares issued on the dividend. THIS IS NOT A TAXABLE EVENT. There will be twice as many shares outstanding so earnings and book value per share will be so effected. It is somewhat more conservative than a stock split in that total STOCK capitaliztion increases coming out of Retained Earnings. JDN PS: I too find it amazing the stock price has dropped on what I consider outstanding good news.
