In addition, as retail investors have expressed a high level of interest in investing in our stock, we believe the Stock Split will also make our common stock more accessible to our retail shareholders.”</blockquote><p>In addition, as that statement highlights, Tesla believes this will make TSLA stock more appealing for retail investors.
