This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Church-and-Dwight Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Church-and-Dwight Company shares which in turn could have impacted Church-and-Dwight Company's share price.
