Apple has declared three 2 for 1 splits throughout its publicly traded life. June of 1987, June of 2000, and February of 2005. A 2 for 1 stock split is accomplished by doubling the amount of shares outstanding and reducing the price per share by one half. While stock splits do not change the fundamentals of a corporation, it may allow investors who deem a certain price per share as out of their desirable range an incentive to engage in ownership. Apple currently trades around $230 per share (as of March 2010). A 2 for 1 split would reduce the price per share to $115 while doubling the amount of shares outstanding. Therefore investors who currently own the stock would not be effected. The new $115 price per share (which has created no additional value in the company) may now attract more investors.
Recently there have been rumors that Apple will perform another stock split. Apple has refuted the statements as incorrect.

Nobody has a crystal ball, not even these financial geniuses out there that blog their opinions and guesstimates. I am no exception to this, and I'll even admit that they are probably more credible with their financial speculations. Having said this, my prediction for Exxon Mobil and the impending stock split will probably be before the year 2016. I formulated this opinion by using previous Exxon Mobil stock split histories that date back from the 1970s. If Exxon Mobil stock can hold around 90 for a long period of time, then I'm sure you'll see a stock split. But for now, enjoy the recent increase in Exxon Mobil's dividends.
