think waynes cooking, record date pretty much meaningless. only important date is ex-dividend date (2/26). own it today at the close and you will get the split. makes no dif when you buy, 2 wks ago, 1 wk ago, yesterday, or even today.

JT is correct, I was cooking..........

And also correct, ex-date is all you need to know, record date is meaningless unless you have the stock in certificate form.

So all this means that you can buy whenever you want today up until 3:59:59 and you WILL receive the stock split. Sell, and you owe someone a bunch of shares tomorrow if you sold thinking you already had the split.

This stock should be over a buck, where it likes to trade, so tomorrow over .25
