FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

How Does a Public Service Enterprise Group Share Split Work?

A Public Service Enterprise Group stock split is no different than any other stock split. Public Service Enterprise Group is simply packaging the number of outstanding shares in a different way. For example, in a 2-for-1 split, the amount of shares will double (and the price will be divided by 2, accordingly). Say you have 100 shares of Public Service Enterprise Group, then the day of the split you will receive 2 shares for every 1 share you hold in your brokerage account, meaning you will receive 200 shares on the stock split date. However, the price of the stock will reflect this change and your holding of Public Service Enterprise Group (in terms of value) will remain practically the same.

Benefits of a Public Service Enterprise Group Stock Split?

A stock split does not change the fundamental value of a company. Meaning a Public Service Enterprise Group stock split will not make the business more valuable. However, there is a psychological benefit in that the share price will be lower after the split, making shares seem more accessible to everyone and thus temporarily increasing demand and ramping up share prices.

Buying Before or After a $PEG Stock Split?

While this is not financial advice and we have not run any thorough studies on the matter, general consensus is that price tends to go up after the announcement of a stock split and before the stock split itself happens.

Will Public Service Enterprise Group Stock Split?

Unfortunately, we do not know. There might be rumors of a Public Service Enterprise Group stock split, but the truth is that until the board proposes a shares split to its shareholders, it's all just noise.

How Does a Stock Split Affect $PEG Options?

A stock split affects options the same way it affect shares. In the case of a 2-for-1, the strike price of all the options chain post-split will be divided by 2 automatically. So if you're holding CALLs or PUTs, the strike price of the $PEG option will be automatically changed on the day of the split. Also, the number of shares will double. So if you have a CALL in a 2-for-1, after split you will have 2 calls to control 200 shares, and the strike price of those two CALLs would be halved.

Public Service Enterprise Group Shares Split and Fractional Shares

Not all shares splits are even. Some splits, like a 3-for-2 can result in shareholders owning fractional shares. In these cases it's best to contact your broker, to be clear on how they will handle the $PEG shares split.
