Nucor Corp (NUE) Stock Split History

Nucor Corp has split its stock 10 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on January 05, 1972 with the ratio of 1-for-4, meaning that for 4 shares of NUE owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 1 share. 9 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on June 01, 2006 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased NUE stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that these actions only change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Nucor Corp's total market capitalization.

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. Nucor Corp 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 NUE stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by Nucor Corp's board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
