Stock-Split Watch: Is Meta Platforms Next?

Meta Platforms' stock surged nearly 30% in September following the launch of its Muse AI assistant, reaching a 52-week high of $779.82. As the only Magnificent Seven member without a conventional stock split, the sharp rise has renewed speculation about a potential split. While fractional shares have reduced traditional split rationale, options contracts tied to 100-share lots could make a split more relevant. CFO Susan Li previously stated the company had no present plans for a split but would monitor market conditions, leaving the door open for reassessment.
