2 Stock-Split Stocks That Could Plunge Up to 89%, According to Select Wall Street Analysts
During periods of heightened uncertainty on Wall Street, it's not uncommon for investors to seek safety in profitable, time-tested, outperforming businesses. While the "FAANG stocks" have been somewhat of a mainstay for investors over the past decade, it's companies enacting splits that have been garnering plenty of attention over the past two years.
A stock split allows a publicly traded company to alter both its share price and outstanding share count without affecting its market cap or operating performance. Think of it as a purely cosmetic change that can either make a company's shares more nominally affordable for retail investors, or increase a company's share price to ensure it meets the minimum listing standards of a major stock exchange.
