This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Vornado Realty Trust shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 19.2% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Vornado Realty Trust shares which in turn could have impacted Vornado Realty Trust's share price.
