Well go to the leaning Tower of Pisa and try it. Drop a 1 kg Cannonball and 1 kg of feathers. Lets see which on hits the ground first. Were on earth were there is an atmosphere.

Well I am not talking about percentage returns. I am talking about
the value of Ballard's stock. If I had 160K to invest and could only put in one stock, I certainly would not put it all in Ballard at
its current price. Nor would I put 160K all in a $10 stock.

>>>And another thing, wasn't it Galileo who proved that two objects dropped from the same height will fall to the ground at the same speed? Something about dropping cannonballs off the leaning tower of Pisa I believe. Not only do you suck with investment theory CR, you don't know much science either.<<<

No its not my reckoning, Splitting Ballard 10:1 still gives Ballard
a $4B Market Cap. Your comparing Ballard with Ballard at the present time when I am comapring Ballard @ $160 with Ballard at $10 years ago at a much smaller market cap.

>>>I think you ought to look up an investment book and study the chapter re percentage returns. It doesn't matter what price you buy a stock, if you lose your investment in either, you are down 100%. By your reckoning, if the stock splits 10 for 1 and the stock then trades at $16.50, Ballard has just had it's risk reduced substantially. Therefore, you will be in buying big time. Time for a reality check
buddy.<<<
