Equity Residential Properties Trust (EQR) Stock Split History

Equity Residential Properties Trust has split its stock once since its initial public offering (IPO). The stock split of Equity Residential Properties Trust occurred on October 12, 2001 on a 2-for-1 basis, meaning that for 1 share of EQR owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares.

This action has increased the stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that a stock split only changes the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Equity Residential Properties Trust's total market capitalization.

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. Equity Residential Properties Trust has not made an official announcement regarding whether it will enact a stock split or reverse stock split, but it has a history of doing so when EQR stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by Equity Residential Properties Trust's board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
