DELL splits 2:1 historically around $100/share on announcement date... Sometimes as low as $90-95 at split announcement. Sometimes not even at $103 on earnings' day (see November 97; many of us were disappointed to not see a split announcement at that time). Split announcements have always (to my knowledge) coincided with quarterly earnings announcements--no special press release just for splits. (NOTE: DELL shareholders must approve the next split since there are not enough authorized shares to effect a 2:1 after March 6.) Therefore, the question is not about the possibility of stock splits in the future, but when will DELL rise and hold above $100 after the March 6 split. Personally, I'm betting on November 98 or February 99 for next 2:1. I'd be surprised if May 98 or August 98 earnings came with an announcement. Also, it has not been the Company's style to do anything except for 2:1. All of this 3:1, 5:1, and 5:2 talk is about the most "speculative" stuff I've read here and elsewhere. I wouldn't put my money on anything other than 2:1 at or around $100, and even then, don't be surprised if the Board waits a quarter to do it (see Nov. 97)
