And we are way past due, people keep wanting to lie to themselves about if and when, the "if" will for sure happen, it's the "when" that's getting delayed.  And the longer it's delayed, the worst it will be.

Also, essentials will be Water, food, ammo.  Gold will not be as important or valuable as one thinks, only in the time right before a collapse and if you can survive and lug it around long enough, can be valuable again when things are not as crazy which could be a long time.  Think about it.

 
If your wanting to invest in something today, look into bicycle companies, and electric scooter companies, they are about to boom.

I don't really understand the perception of stock splits.   It doesn't matter whether you own 1 share or 20 shares, what you really have is $X,XXX worth of a stock.  A company is worth exactly $X,XXX,XXX,XXX (or whatever).   Company does something to raise or lower their net value (perceived) and each share moves accordingly.  

Buybacks are different, but a split really doesn't do much of anything.  Other than make people think they can afford to own a share of stock, but they could have afforded the same exact percent stake in the company before.  It may have just been as 1/20th a share, not 1 share.  No actual difference though.

You are right. It can be added to the DOW when it splits however. Which SOMETIMES can give the stock a boost. Speculation is that it will indeed happen. Much of it is cosmetic like you said though.
