These are the upcoming stock splits for the week of July 22 to July 26, based on TipRanks’ Stock Splits Calendar. A stock split is a corporate action in which, the company issues additional common shares to increase the number of outstanding shares of the company. Accordingly, the stock price of the company’s shares decreases, which maintains the market capitalization before and after the split. In contrast, there are also reverse stock splits that reduce the number of outstanding shares (consolidate). In this case, too, the market cap is maintained as the share price increases following the reverse stock split.
