Re: "Earnings and/or high expectations for sustainable future earnings is only investment basis that will drive up stock price."

Right!

Re: "Reverse splits in my opinion lack corporate fiduciary responsibility and should be soundly opposed by every shareholder."

Usually right. But a R/S can be of value if the company is doing well and wants to get fund managers into the buying. Then a R/S could access substantially more investor $, through big fund managers, who by charter wouldn't be allowed to buy the company's penny stock. Is it worth the cost of doing a R/S? Maybe. Key words "doing well".

Re: "Dividend splits on the other hand are an excellent method to compensate the shareholder by reducing the per share price too encourage more investors."

There's no payback for a stock split and there's always a cost. Splits are almost exclusively done by U.S. companies - they make no difference . Getting some more small investors has little value. "Earnings and/or high expectations for sustainable future earnings is only investment basis that will drive up stock price."
