Amzn alias the 'Thing' splits its stock and EPS.
<Seattle, Washington, Nov. 19 (Bloomberg) -- Amazon.com Inc., the top online bookseller, said will split its stock 3-for-1.

Seattle-based Amazon.com said shareholders will receive two additional shares for every share held on the record date of Dec. 18. The additional shares will be mailed or delivered on or around Jan. 4.

Amazon.com shares have risen fourfold this year on optimism that the top online book seller will also dominate in other categories such as music and videos. Shares split 2-for-1 on June 1.

Shares fell 10 3/4 to 153 1/3. Amazon disclosed the proposed stock split after the close of regular U.S. trading. >
Jan, finally some more candy bars for the hungry mouths.
regards

When has
Bezos been dishonest?


I cannot recall Bezos being dishonest. I believe Covey did state at the end of the June Quarter that AMZN would be profitable without marketing. That was incorrect and dishonest.
