Looking at the Netflix stock split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 14000 today. This does not always happen, however, often depending on the underlying fundamentals of the business. If that increased demand causes the share price to appreciate, then the total market capitalization rises post-split. Often, however, a lower priced stock on a per-share basis can attract a wider range of buyers. When a company such as Netflix splits its shares, the market capitalization before and after the split takes place remains stable, meaning the shareholder now owns more shares but each are valued at a lower price per share. For example, a 2000 share position pre-split, became a 14000 share position following the split. This was a 7 for 1 split, meaning for each share of NFLX owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 7 shares. NFLX's second split took place on July 15, 2015. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 2000 share position following the split.
