Too many stock splits are not in the best interest of shareholders IMHO. When the float becomes very large, it's increasingly difficult for the stock price to gain appreciation. I think JDSU is far from that point. If it continues to grow and come through with earnings, there is nothing stopping it from going a lot higher even with larger float. Sorry for repeating this over and over but it is not even in the S and P 500 yet. An example of the large float problem is AOL. However, i don't even think that is the factor for them---it is the free internet issue for them. I don't buy the large float argument for JDSU yet. 1 year from now---i don't know. Large companies like Oracle, Cisco, SUNW, MSFT had no problem going a lot higher even with large floats.
