Summary List PlacementAs an investor, the idea of "splitting" anything is probably not at the top of your list.  But when it comes to stocks, your portfolio may benefit from a split. A stock split occurs when a company makes its shares more affordable by dividing its existing shares into additional, less expensive shares.  In a stock split, the company's overall value stays the same — a split may reduce the price per share but it doesn't affect the company's market capitalization. There are simply more shares to go around.  If you're already a shareholder in a company when it declares a stock split, not much changes. Nevertheless, it's important to grasp how stock splits work, especially for understanding how the market may react post-split.  What is a stock split? Public companies have...

Just as soon as retailers restock the $500 console online, it swiftly sells out. It's in such high demand, and such low supply, that a robust resale market has sprung up — the PlayStation 5 sells for near...
