The Split Skinny on MLNM and LTR

Why are you not looking at MLNM, which is splitting on 4/19, or LTR Loews Corp. for a post split run? Any comments regarding these two?


Well, the reason we are not looking at Millennium Pharmaceuticals (MLNM) is because it's trading at $29.88, a slight discount to its 52-week high of $89.81. What's more, MLNM isn't slated to split its stock on 4/19. In fact, its last split was on April 18, 2000 when its stock was fetching $114.88 a share. In all honesty, we don't consider MLNM to be a split candidate at current levels.

As for LTR, we did follow that stock on our Current Play list for two weeks on early March. What's more, we posted a nice 6 percent gain during that period. LTR began trading split adjusted on March 21, so its split run is over.
