I expect CSCO and John Chambers to announce more likely a 3 for 2 stock split rather than a 2 for 1. The reason: they currently don't have enough authorized shares to announce a 2 for 1. Also, in the past few years, Mr. Chambers has preferred the 3 for 2 split since it doesn't drop the price below 50. I don't really understand the theory behind it, but that's what I have seen through holding the shares since 1995. Edward

Are there enough authorized shares to do a 3:1? I don't believe that there are, but I may be wrong. LoD
