divy 3-1 stk, forward split 3-1 F/S

with a divy, you keep the 1 you have, they give you 2 more exactly like it. no D added to symbol. DTC can't screw with it. PPS will adjust same as a split. everyone should have shares in 5-6 days including xdate. will depend on your broker.

with a forward split, something changes, usually the cusip. you have to exchange your 1 share for 3 NEW ones. D will be added for at least 20 trading days. PPS will adjust. DTC has been pulling the companys eligibility and making them reapply on splits. locks up shares for pre-split owners for weeks (2-6) with the norm being 5 1/2 wks.

divy is better way to go.
