That's promising news. I began to look at it myself but didn't get to a conclusion yet. I can recommend Yahoo for stock splits. biz.yahoo.com You can scan back month by month and it lists month by month. I'm not sure how far back it goes. You can go to specific months as follows: biz.yahoo.com The above URL goes to Nov (s11) of 2005 (05). A couple of other points: 1. It would be interest to sort according to the level of the split 1:2 vs 2:3 vs 1:3 to see if the greater split does better. 2. I am also interested in the performance of the split stock on the days just before the split. I found a posting on SI: Message 595466 which looks at 3-4 days before stock is split and fades the price after the split occurs. They also talk about using options and making money on the increase in volatility following the split as the range in trading decreases less than the price of the stock especially for 3:1 splits. Please keep me informed. Ciao, Rolatzi
