### Comment:
No that makes sense. Splitting stock is just that, splitting stock. U have pie, I split pie, u now have 2 'pies' but really is still just one pie. Issuing new shares is you have pie, I now sell more pies flooding the market with pie lowering the value of your pie

### REPLY:
A reverse split is the opposite, so much stock dilution that they are giving you 1 stock for the 2 you own, or 1 stock for the 10 you own. Causing stock to jump in price and reduce the outstanding shares in the market. Used on stocks of low value as last resort to keep them on the market. Check dryships stock for an example
