Charles Schwab Corp. (SCHW) Stock Split History

Charles Schwab Corp. has split its stock 8 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on December 03, 1991 with the ratio of 3-for-2, meaning that for 2 shares of SCHW owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 3 shares. 7 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on May 31, 2000 on a 3-for-2 basis.

These splits have increased SCHW 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 Charles Schwab Corp.'s total market capitalization.

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