Assume you have 100 shares worth $100 per share.

If the stock splits 2 for 1, you will have 200 shares worth $50 per share.

In both cases, you have $10,000, so the split itself has no value.

The hope is that at $50 per share more people will be able to afford to buy than at $100 per share. More buyers may mean that the future price will be higher. This is a wish, not a guarantee. Never buy just due to a split. Always consider if the stock is attractive after the split as if it never split.
