What is a stock split?: Yahoo Finance Explains

A stock split is when a company divides up each share of its stock into a set amount of shares. When a company does a stock split, it increases the amount of outstanding shares and therefore, increases the liquidity of a stock. It also helps lower the stock price, which makes it more accessible to investors.

And at the close of the trading day, all investors holding the stock will have their shares converted and then the stock starts trading again on this new split adjusted basis.Doing a stock split, increases the number of outstanding shares or shares owned and thus increases the liquidity of the stock making it easier for buyers and sellers to trade.
