RE:LCS SPLIT 14 shares extra for each 100 you own or 14%Actually think the day the stock split they will adjust the price to reflect the new shares if I am remembering how others were done. The value of what you held before the split will be the same, after the adjustment BUT you will be getting added distribuions. If I have about 5000 shares it will turn into about 5,700 i believe , and extra distributions cash would be around 500$ every month. So over time the split works out in your favor, IF you are long. Of course capital losses could happen, and then it doesnt matter. Lower interest rates are not in LCS 's favor, and when they were near 0 it was tough times for lifecos and insurers. Luckily these 4 are more diversified and income is created from several parts of the globe.
