Example: you buy the stock at 3:00 and it splits at 3:01 on 1/31 and you get the split if your stocks are in the street name. If you hold your own certificates in your name then today's the day.

Michael,
As I understand it, you get the split up until the stock actually splits in January. I believe the actual date is January 20. Today was for accounting purposes. If you sell the stock before January 20 the split goes to the buyer. You don't get to keep it.

Right up to the day before it splits you get it.
