Colfax Corporation's shares were split on a 1:3 basis on 4 April 2022 . So if you had owned 3 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share.

However, indirectly, the new 200% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Colfax Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Colfax Corporation's share price.
