Apparently, the record date isn't particularly meaningful to you, the stockholder. It is, however, apparently important for the company. There's an article on The Motley Fool that discusses Apple's last stock split, in 2014. The relevant dates for that split were
Announcement: April 23, 2014. Apple declared they would be splitting their stock Record date: June, 2, 2014 Effective date: June 9, 2014 (What follows comes from the section "Forward split case study: Apple's 2014 stock split.)
As a stock holder, for every share of Apple stock you owned at the close of business on June 8, 2014, you would wake up on the morning of June 9th and see an additional 6 shares of stock in your portfolio. The distinction is, where exactly did those additional shares come from?
If you owned prior to the record date, they came from Apple itself.
Let's say that Apple had traded for $700 per share at the market's close on June 8, the day before the split went into effect. For investors who already owned Apple stock and who held through at least June 9, the process was pretty straightforward. For every share of Apple they had in their brokerage account on June 8, which was worth $700, six more shares of Apple appeared in their brokerage account before trading began on June 9. Each of the seven shares was worth $100 immediately after the split went into effect. If you bought after the record date, those shares technically came from whoever owned the shares on the record date. They receive the shares from Apple, but those shares are immediately transferred to you.
Here's where the corporate accounting concept of a record date comes in. Let's say that someone bought a share of Apple on June 4, 2014 -- after the record date but prior to the effective date. In this case, the new shares would technically be given to that share's prior owner. However, because they sold their share prior to the split's effective date, those new shares would be transferred (by the brokerage) to the investor who bought the shares.
如果在8/21登记日之后但在8/31之前买入TSLA，按裂谷前的价格购买股票。裂谷之后，仍然收到裂谷产生的多余股票。例如：如果在8月26日以每股2,500购买了100股，需支
付250,000美元。如果于8月31日仍然持有； 股票裂谷后，将获得400股额外的股票，股价将降至裂谷后的价格。
如果在登记日之后但在8月31日之前卖出TSLA，按裂谷前的价格卖出它们即可，但是无
权获得裂谷的股票。
关键的区别在于谁给你额外的股票。在登记日之前你有股票，Tesla 公司（画重点）给你额外的红股。 下周再买入一直抱到九月份，Broker 给你额外的红股。
right on!
looking forward to buying some tsla stocks next week at $2500 per share!
所以下一个周的走势其实很微妙的，因为broker (做市的交易商）要从自己的角度考虑，怎么MAXIMIZE profit??? 大家自己想吧
还真没想到这一层面。我不怎么懂这里面的弯弯绕，我自己肯定想不出个所以然来，呵呵。

。。。你真的懂股票？懂公司运作？居然还有模有样的“公司给你股票，券商给你股票”！
股票不都是你出钱买的，第一个日期，不过是记录在公司股东名单上，跟行驶投票权有关而已！其他只不过是怎么记账报税而已！

同学们可以看看下面贴子里的链接，里面有人仔细解说了8月24号之前和之后只有股票
的细微差别，这些差别对我们小三可能没什么，但对于特斯拉、券商来说，怎么对待作为利息而产生的而外4只股票，从accounting的角度看，还是有区别的。

你们不是在开玩笑吧。弱成这样还是不要炒股了
尼玛一个split就能pump股票，也真是活久见了
下面估计Apple/amzn 是不是要依样画葫芦了？split一下，苹果2T变3T
老巴眼珠子都要掉出来了，早知道这样brk.A使劲split啊，1分5搞个7/8次都没问题啊！

呵呵，国内有一种NB的填权行情，早说了美股价值投资已死，像A股前进
照着这个思路分析下去，这一周Tesla应该基本是以跌势为主，包括下一周的前几天。
但是特斯拉股东们，不要紧，长期投资，风物长宜放眼量，别在乎一时一地之厉。我预测的Tesla EPS 2022 大概$30， 2023 $45 2024 $68 2025 $80; 到2030年EPS $260. FCFF 模型预测的正在进行中。

估计下测1800，然后上2500，呵呵。
