Stock Split Watch: Is Amazon Next?

There are also a couple of good reasons why Amazon should announce a stock split as soon as later this week. You might think these bookkeeping moves are silly zero-sum games, and that's fair. However, a lot of other market watchers see an Amazon split as the key to attracting even more retail investors while also making life easier for options traders. Let's see why Amazon could be the next major stock to declare a stock split.
