This study investigates the effect of stock splits on stock prices and stock returns in the capital market. Drawing from the trading range theory and signaling theory, the research analyzes daily data over a five-year period (2015-2020) for 31 purposively sampled companies. The analytical methods employed include descriptive statistics, normality tests, and paired sample t-tests.
