Have FAR 's shares ever split?
FAR 's shares were split on a 1:100 basis on 24 June 2021. So if you had owned 100 shares the day before the split, the next day you would own 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your FAR shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 9900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for FAR shares which in turn could have impacted FAR 's share price.
FAR share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, FAR 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.34 up to $0.895. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta measures a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while FAR 's is 1.0739. This would suggest that FAR 's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
