We're not expecting Astro Resources to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Have Astro Resources's shares ever split?

Astro Resources's shares were split on a 1:100 basis on 1 December 2014. So if you had owned 100 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Astro Resources shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 9900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Astro Resources shares which in turn could have impacted Astro Resources's share price.

Astro Resources share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Astro Resources's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.003 up to $0.01. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while Astro Resources's is -0.3951. This would suggest that Astro Resources's shares have been inversely-correlated to the average (for this exchange) – so when the broader market trended up or down, Astro Resources has bucked the trend.
