The yield would still be close to 1%. That's how I believe a dividend changes after a 2 for 1 split.<br /><br />As for your recent purchase into Stantec - did you do it on Sept 8th - on the day that you initially made the Stantec posting?Cntryskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927900757157886726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6818486532233792196.post-87981770510337224152014-09-14T22:12:21.617-04:002014-09-14T22:12:21.617-04:00Regarding your question about the dividend after t...Regarding your question about the dividend after the split, the dividend distribution will remain the same.

On the say the split happen, usually, your investment will gain in value. To benefit from the buzz, and if the stock is of quality and its something I had been looking to buy in quite sometime - like Stantec - well, buying before a stock split deal is the best way to benefit from everything.<br /><br />However, you could wait, wait and wait for the stock to go down in value, but you know what, that may never happen.<br /><br />Jump in at any occasion and hold.Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439081666297874311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6818486532233792196.post-65360935768152907462014-09-12T13:16:33.980-04:002014-09-12T13:16:33.980-04:00Is there really an advantage of buying it a few da...Is there really an advantage of buying it a few days before the official split compared to say buying it at a lower possible value than its equal split value after when the split occurs? The stock could go either way after Oct 31st. Also, wouldn't the dividend lower to around 0.50 yield? I have never dealt with a split stock so it is a bit new to me.
