So investors tend to invest in a certain number of shares instead of investing a certain amount of money? Really interesting. Is this effect something what efficient market theory is talking about? Boris

Ted, I think I didn't explained it very well. I know, after a split the volume doesn't double from one day to the other. What I talked about was the average daily volume, which I think is derived from the last 30, 60 or 90 days. If you see a historical graph of the share prices, they always adjust it for stock splits. You don't see a 50% drop on the day of the split. I thought it was common to do the same for the volume. if we have an average volume of 6 million before the split, this equals to an average of 12 million after the split. But if it's common not to do this, that's ok for me. I'm not that kind of a difficult guy that they have to change their practice just to please me. Bert
