Will Amazon's Stock Split Kickstart the Stock?

Will Amazon's Stock Split Kickstart the Stock?

Amazon's (NASDAQ: AMZN) stock has had a rough second quarter. Furthermore, should Amazon's shareholders vote in favor of the impending stock split at the shareholder's meeting on May 25, Amazon's stock will split 20 for one. While primarily a cosmetic move, it could open the door to Amazon's inclusion in the Dow Jones Industrial index and open the door to stock ownership for those without access to fractional shares.
