Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) Stock Split History

Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF has split its stock once since its initial public offering (IPO). The stock split of Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF occurred on June 18, 2008 on a 2-for-1 basis, meaning that for 1 share of VTI 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 Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF's total market capitalization.

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