A share split is nothing more than an accounting entry. Every Nvidia share held becomes 4 and the price is divided by 4. It's not a share dilution.

Hundreds of companies split shares, the majority of large caps have split at one time or another. The only thing a share split does is perhaps attract a bit of attention and makes shares more affordable for small investors to buy.
