What impact do stock splits have on historical price data?
When a company performs a stock split, it adjusts the historical price data to reflect the new, lower trading price as if it had always been that way.
This ensures consistency for anyone analyzing the stock’s past prices. The adjustment helps prevent misleading signals on charts, such as false sell signals or bearish trends that aren’t there. For instance, in a 2-for-1 stock split, the price per share is cut in half, which would otherwise appear as a dramatic drop on the chart. If someone didn’t know about the split, they might wrongly think something negative happened to the company. Most technical indicators would also react to this apparent drop by signaling to sell.
A stock split, while making the shares seem more affordable and potentially more attractive to investors, doesn’t alter the company’s fundamental value.
