EasyResearch Weekly Dividends Update

This week, one of the largest stock splits in New York Stock Exchange history is set to take place!

Chipotle Mexican Grill will conduct a 50-for-1 split, in which shareholders will receive 49 additional shares for each share they own. In addition, Lam Research Corp and Broadcom Inc. will also perform stock splits at a ratio of 10-for-1.

• Given its history of increasing dividends annually, Lam Research Corp is expected to increase its next dividend (paid in October, with the last date to trade in September); its stock split will take place in October.
• Broadcom Inc., on the other hand, increases its dividend annually. Its quarterly dividend (usually paid in September) was expected to remain the same as the upcoming payout before likely increasing. However, the semiconductor giant announced a stock split expected to occur next month before the payout.

It’s interesting to note that NVIDIA previously increased its dividend by 150% and announced its 10-for-1 split at the same time.

Dis-Chem Pharmacies, Airtel Africa PLC, 4Sight Holdings, and Vodacom Group are among the companies also included in this week’s updates.

EasyProperties' monthly auctions have started. During this period, investors can invest in or sell their shares in specified properties on the platform.
