CoffeePot Sir
WAKE UP and SMELL the youknowwhat!!!
Are you saying that if you were to buy yhoo on the 4th of feb, they would short change you and not split your shares? Ridiculous!
And since when is a split an investment? Maybe in a tulipmaniadriven universe, people may trip over each other in order to buy split adjusted shares.
No wealth is generated when you get twice as many shares after a split. Please understand that. So its NOT an investment.
Also, consider the case of AMZN. They closed at 106 today. Below the split price. Are the investors who bought AMZN presplit and held on richer because of that? Why would YHOO "investors" who "invest" with the 2-1 split in mind fare any better?
Please feel free to disagree with me...
