<<<Yahoo will announce a split sometime soon. So what? If you're planning on making money by forecasting which way the stock will move after the announcement and/or split, I think you're playing a potentially expensive guessing game.>>>

That would be gambling not investing. I have held yahoo for almost a year now and was just curious to see if others thought there was a split coming.

It'll probably be difficult to make money on the split announcement, since it will most likely be overshadowed by whatever earnings they announce. However, AMZN ran up $33 (around 10%) on the day before the split, and is currently up another $20 or so (pre-split prices) today. Barring news from YHOO around the day the split takes effective, we may see similar action.

James.
