There has been a LOT of changes over the last few years, as far as the market goes…
Old strategies that used to work like buying low and selling high just aren’t feasible in a record-setting bull market – and the fact of the matter is – it doesn’t look like this bull is going to slow down any time soon.
So, as we figure things out, and as more and more truths are being revealed…
It’s time to admit this is a new market unlike ANY we’ve ever seen before.
There are new tricks and new things to consider…
And one of the BIGGEST tricks companies used to pull to entice more stock purchases – has seemed to go the way of the Dodo…
Can you guess what it is and why they’re not doing it anymore?
It’s nothing groundbreaking…
It’s nothing that you’ll hear and wonder why you’ve never thought of it before. In fact, once you understand what’s going on – or better, what’s NOT going on – you’ll probably nod your head and say, “Ohhhh, yeah… I guess I HAVEN’T seen that in a while.”
Have you figured it out?
One of the things that have disappeared, or at least seen a DRASTIC reduction in occurrences…
Are stock splits.
Years ago – it seemed we were getting 3 to 4 stock splits a month…
But since the bull has left the pen – we’ve watched stock splits drop down to almost NOTHING.
Are you wondering why so few stocks on the major exchanges are splitting these days?
It’s easy…
They don’t need to.
To understand this, you need to understand why a company would split its stock in the first place.
A company splits its stock because share prices hit a point where the everyday investor stays away from buying, as higher price points can leave many investors looking on from the outside.
They see a stock priced above $500 and they tend to balk.
It’s too rich for their blood.
They’d rather buy 10 shares of a $50 stock or 100 shares of a $5 stock because to them – it’s more palatable. They don’t feel like they’re putting too much on the line – and therefore, it’s easier to pull the trigger.
Management knows this…
So, instead of watching its company’s stock stagnate – it’ll go ahead and split its stock to entice more average investors to buy.
This comes at a price, though…
As a company splits its stock, they may achieve lower share prices – but volatility also tends to work its way in.
It’s a small price to pay when your company needs an influx of cash.
But they’re not doing it anymore…
They’re making enough money these days without having to initiate a split.
So, they don’t need to worry about volatility as much…
They don’t have to worry about anything right now – so companies are content keeping the stock price right where it’s at, even if that excludes many of the “little guys” from being able to participate.
And again, that doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon.
This bull may run for another 10 years or LONGER, according to some experts…
And if that’s the case – you can bet that most companies won’t be splitting their stock anytime soon.
And this topic works right into what we talked about last week…
We’ve got to take everything we ever thought we knew about the markets – and throw it out the window.
This is a new day…
