REX Shares and Tuttle Capital Management (“T-REX”) announced significant changes to two of their exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including a forward share split for the T-REX 2X Long MSTR Daily Target ETF (Ticker: MSTU) and a reverse share split for the T-REX 2X Inverse MSTR Daily Target ETF (Ticker: MSTZ). These adjustments will take effect on December 16, 2024, with no impact on the total market value of the shares outstanding, except for the redemption of fractional shares.
MSTU: Forward Split
T-REX has planned a forward 10-for-1 share split for MSTU. Shareholders of record as of the close of trading on December 13, 2024, will receive ten shares for each share they currently hold. This split will increase the total number of outstanding shares by approximately tenfold.
