1:10 stock split effect: Sigachi Industries shareholders earn 700% in YTD

1:10 stock split effect: Ace investor Charlie Munger once said that money is not in buying and selling of stocks but in waiting. The former Vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway wanted to convey from this statement that a stock market investor should try and hold a stock as long as one long because a long-term investor does not just gain from stock appreciation but from various other corporate announcements like bonus shares, stock split, dividend, buyback of shares, etc. These announcements might not look big in the short term but they impact a lot on the returns that a long-term investor gets.

To understand how these corporate announcements impact one’s return, we need to look at Sigachi Industries share price history. This stock traded ex-split on 9th October 2023 in a 1:10 ratio. This means the shareholding of a beneficiary shareholder of the Sigachi share split would have surged 10 times as one stock of the company was subdivided into 10 shares.
