I wonder what happens after the split?
Market Cap is usually not much affected by splits. . . If anything it may get larger. The market cap is merely the number of shares multiplied by the current trading value. So if the there are four times the number of shares at one-quarter of the price as before, there’s going to be no change. However, more people can afford to buy shares at one-quarter of the price of the previous price, so demand for shares is likely to go up, ergo, price of the shares can go up.
If you owned Apple on Aug 14, then you get an additional 3 shares per one on Aug. 31. Same with Tesla 5/1.

frenzied buying which will drive prices above split price. I plan on picking up 50-100 more shares. Has a great dividend also.

“Market Value”
That’s STOCK value - PAPER VALUE
Something happens and overnight its then ‘worth’ HALF or a QUARTER of that ‘value’.

More people will be able to buy shares of Apple at the lower price. Diversity of ownership of publiclly traded companies is a good thing.
