What
Apple's Stock Split Means for You
--------------
In
a stock split， a company increases the number of shares outstanding while lowering
the price accordingly. Splits don't change anything fundamentally about a
company or its valuation， but they tend to make a
company's stock more attractive to mom-and-pop investors. Apple shares rallied
23% from late April，when the company announced the split
in conjunction with a strong quarterly report， through
Friday.
蘋果公司拆股的意義
--------------
通過拆股，上市公司增加了發(fā)行在外的股份數(shù)量，同時相應(yīng)地降低了股價。拆股不會對一家公司的基本面或估值產(chǎn)生任何影響，但往往會增加股票對散戶投資者的吸引力。截至上周五，蘋果公司股價較4月底上漲了23%。該公司于4月底宣布了股份拆分計劃，同時公布了表現(xiàn)強勁的季度財報。
