This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

You asked if it will "ever split" by The Flash

Just guessing, but I expect not.

A common purpose of stock splits is to reduce the price of stock to a more publicly affordable price so the firm can sell more stock to more people if and when it issues more. Amazon is financing their operations with cash flow generation, not debt or equity offerings.

Who knows if Amazon will want to issue more stock, dilute the current shares, and raise capital through equity? I don't think they need it, but "ever" is a long time for their circumstances and strategic financial planning to change. I checked the history of their SEC filings for prospectuses and Blue Sky reports, and found none.

Cheers.
