if i understand what you are asking, i think prior fundamentals are adjusted to reflect the new amount of shares, so there is continuation. if it is not done, it should be by the investor. i was thinking in terms of shares alone, ie, if the stock xyz had 50m in shares and it took 10m to move it a dollar, with the 100m (post split), would it not take greater volume to move the same dollar amount, proportionally 20m, based on this i always assumed a trend would use up more steam to achieve the same prior move, thereby exhausting the trend more rapidly.

DD 2 for 1 splits. IMO a split would be delutive only if the share were thrown into the open market. If I owned 100 shares of ATPX (forever)and they split I would now have 200 shares of the same stock with the same value as the 100 shares presplit, thus I have lost nothing and now own 200 shares of a solid co. Given the potential of the Co (ATPX) (forever) I stand a great chance of making more money then before. Other people begin to see the true value of such a solid co. and begin to buy their (LONG TERM) shares thus driving up the price of my (forever) holdings. :) :) :) :) :): :) :) FOREVER HOLDING ATPX GET IT!
