hiroller, there are many factors concerning forward stock splits. I would never buy Berkshire Hathaway because it has never split. I cant afford to pay 303,581,00 per share it's closing price Friday.

Successful companies split their stock to satisfy liquidity issues like Canopy will need to do at some point.

Most people can afford to pay 20.00 for a share of stock instead of 200.00
Their is a psychological factor built into peoples mind set concerning how much they want to pay for one share.

If you were to take a poll of 100 CGC stockholders concerning a 3 for 1 split, I would say 95 or more would favor the split.

have you ever heard of split adjusted earnings per share?

Here is a definition of how it works.

Price per share and earnings per share both split the same way. Investors looking at charts will also notice that historical volume will change according to the split ratio, although in reverse. ... Looking at a split-adjusted chart after the split occurs will show 2,000 shares at half the price for that same day.
