Tesla shares surge day after stock split announced

The split changes nothing fundamental about the stock. It lowers the cost of an individual share. That may appear attractive to retail investors who may have be scared off by a high price tag, though investors are also able to buy fractions of a share for whatever they’re willing to pay.

“Any value in the stock that’s created by this is false,” CNBC’s Jim Cramer said on “Squawk Box.” “But I think the idea of getting newer, younger people involved into the stock market who aren’t just brainwashed to put money into index funds is terrific.”
