If I by Apple stock now would I get the stock split?
There will be a date certain that will be announced. Holders of the stock on that date will get seven shares. I expect the price to go up before that.
Apple has to make certain preparations before they do it. If you are going to buy, I think you should buy ASAP. I am not an advisor, and you need to make your own decision. The nice thing will be after the split it will be easy to buy Apple a share or two at a time.
