You guys dont know much about splits, stock etc. Some people have said AMZN could split 2-for-1, 3-for-1, 4-for-1. Wrong! edgar-online.com On AMZNs Mar 98 10-Q filed mid-May it clearly states AMZN has 100 MM shares authorized. AMZN has ~ 48.3 MM shares outstaninding. It could split 2-for-1. It cant split 3 or 4 for-1 because it does not have the authorized shares to do so. However, it is easy to authorize more shares--and AMZN may have done so recently. From what I can tell though--they only have 100 MM shares to work with right now. If the company comes out and says they are authorizing more shares--then they are showing their cards and a split will probably follow.
