Liberty Global's shares were split on a 1957:1000 basis on 3 March 2014 . So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1957 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Liberty Global shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 48.9% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Liberty Global shares which in turn could have impacted Liberty Global's share price.
