Ken: When the stock splits the earnings are adjusted for the split, think about it for a minute. Like I said before the P/E should be the same before and after the split until the stock price and/or earnings change or until there is a secondary public offering or the company executes a share buy-back program or any such measures that might cause a change in either the 'P' or 'E'. Am I confusing you? Perhaps someone can explain this phenomenon better than I can or correct me if I am wrong or both.
