Although the rise of artificial intelligence has hogged the spotlight for years, it’s not the only trend responsible for lifting the tide on Wall Street. Companies enacting forward stock splits<\/a> are also drawing a crowd and exciting investors.<\/p>\n

The first blockbuster stock split of the year occurred five weeks ago<\/a>, when online travel giant Booking Holdings<\/strong> completed its first-ever forward split (25-for-1). This was followed by five Vanguard exchange-traded funds (ETFs) taking the plunge on April 21<\/a>. Now, it’s online used-car retailer Carvana<\/strong>‘s (CVNA<\/a> +2.73%<\/span>)<\/span> turn to take center stage.<\/p>\n

Wall Street’s next blockbuster stock split is here<\/h2>\n

On Dec. 27, 2022, Carvana shares closed at an all-time low of $3.72, with years of persistent losses and a sizable debt load seemingly portending disaster. Roughly 3.5 years later, Carvana is trading at $379 per share, representing a gain of 10,091%! Perhaps it’s no surprise that its board of directors announced the company’s first-ever forward split (5-for-1) on March 13, which goes into effect before the start of trading today, May 7. <\/p>\n

Carvana’s board stated that this historic stock split is aimed at “keeping our stock accessible to all of our team members.” But it’ll also make the company’s shares more nominally affordable for retail investors who lack access to fractional-share purchases<\/a> through their broker. Once effected, Carvana’s 5-for-1 forward split will lower its share price to around $76 (based on its closing price on May 5).<\/p>\n
