sonki,

mrk's history of split is at 150 3-1. no, i dont think they will spli t any time soon.

bmy's history of split is at 110-120 2-1, so if you are interested in splitville, bmy has a better chance than mrk.

pfe's history of split is at 100-120 2-1.

Hi Sonki, I put in a call to my friend at MRK. I think that 120 is a good opportunity. I also think that we will see a split ANNOUNCED sometime in the next few months, but from what I've heard the actual split will occur towards the end of the year. Since earnings were off by a mere penny but the outlooks are good I would buy more now. I don't think it will stay low for too long.
