Stock splits are debatable no matter how you slice it on this tech edition of Industry Focus. Greetings Fools Fools, Sean O'Reilly here at Fool Headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia.

It is May 6, 2016 Friday, T.G.I.F.

And in studio with me to talk all things tech as always is Dylan Lewis. What's up man?

Not too much Sean. Nice to be back. We had a little break last week because I was hosting with Nathan on the show.

Yeah, how did you do with the chair switch?

I sat in your chair, the host was a weird and he sat over here

It was different it was a good show by the way. Well I realized the camera was getting my right side rather than my left side is that your better side

I don't know I guess you'd have to ask the viewers.

What do you write into us at industry focus at fool.com to tell us which side is doing the good side?

There it is the email plug. Now we can get on the show.

So we're talking about not necessarily a tech theme today,

but it obviously affects a couple of tech companies,

which we'll be talking about, but we're talking about stock splits.

So Dylan, for our listeners that may not know, what is a stock split?

Stock split is basically, if you think about a company's value and their ownership as a pie.

Stock splits are taking that pie and maybe it's cut into Ais, we'll say, to start and then cutting

it into sixteenths.

What kind of pie is it? I like to think it's a pecan pie.

Pecan pie. So if you owned an eighth of that pie and it was a two for one split, you

would be getting now two slices of 16th pie, right?

Why do people do this, Dylan?

No.
