Nvidia Stock: Is It a Buy Before the Stock Split?

Nvidia's Stock History

Nvidia has completed five stock splits in the past, and shares have performed quite poorly afterward. Nvidia NVDA, 0.75% will complete a 10-for-1 stock split on July 20th.

Will NVidia's stock price go up after the split?

Nvidia's 10-for-1 stock split is in effect giving investors nine additional shares for every one that they already own. So if you own 100 shares of Nvidia stock before the split, you will own 1,000 shares after the split. The value of your investment will remain the same, but the share price will be 10 times lower.

There is no guarantee that Nvidia's stock price will go up after the split. In fact, it is more likely that the stock price will go down in the short term, as investors sell their shares to take advantage of the lower price. However, in the long term, the stock price is likely to recover and continue to grow.
