"The Company announced a two-for-one stock split of the Company's common stock to be distributed on or about December 20, 1999 to holders of record on December 10, 1999." I never understand why they say "holders of record", since if you buy the stock the day before the split (or in this case on Dec 17, a Friday), your shares split as well. Anyone who can tell me what this means? Jeff
