Stock Split! Does GOOG share follow Apple/Tesla/Nvidia?

$Alphabet(GOOG)$ released a wonderful Q4 earnings result, and the company also announced a 20-for-1 stock split that will go into effect in July.Stock split that is the key to push the share price to $3,000 in after-market trading hours.

Alphabet today announced that the Board of Directors had approved and declared a 20-for-one stock split (the “Stock Split”) in the form of a one-time special stock dividend on each share of the Company’s Class A, Class B, and Class C stock. If approval is obtained, each of the Company’s stockholders of record at the close of business on July 1, 2022 (the “Record Date”), will receive, after the close of business on July 15, 2022, a dividend of 19 additional shares of the same class of stock for every share held by such stockholder as of the Record Date.

Assuming that the share price is $3,000,each share of GOOGL will convert into 20 in July 2022, the price per share after split is only $150, which allows more individual investors who love Google to own it!

Actually, the split doesn’t change the fundamentals of the business. Rather, it will lower the price of each share, a move that companies often make when their stock trades in the thousands of dollars. However,Apple ,Tesla and Nvidia witnessed substantial gains ahead of their most recent stock splits in the past 2 years as illustrated below.

On July 31, 2020 $Apple(AAPL)$  announced that a 4-for-1 stock split will be held on August 31, 2020. And the closing price of $106 on July 31 and $126.5 on August 31. The closing price was $174.6 last trading day, with an increase of 65% and 28% respectively in one and a half years.​​

    would buy during significant dip n wait for price to recover. You will get 3 çadvantage. price up after market recover, additional share when stock split n more gains when price up after stock split.

    Perhaps it will hit $4000 and after split will be $200 (20 for 1).

    these stocks split partly cause of employee stock option schemes. if it's too expensive, the stock for the schemes cannot be afforded by the average employee. so they will do split

    As $Alphabet(GOOG)$ has a strong moat, the split will attract more retail investors. Unless there is a major market down turn, I expect the market value of Alphabet to rise after the split

    agree, fundamentally nothing has changed but the lower price shares may allow more investor who are previously priced out to buy and possibly increasing demand for the shares and hence share price.

    $Alphabet(GOOG)$ stock split is a right move for investors keen to invest but can't reach due to high cost per stock.
