After the first rate cut this year, stocks shot up. Why did it drop so much this time? Why arent investors happy about the rate cut and want to invest more?

I have been thinking about this question recently, i hope someone can help me clear this up. When a stock "splits" i.e. its share price halves and quantity doubles, how does it appear in the stock market the following day, is the price quoted as half of original value, with a drop of 50% quoted, or is there a different system?

We basically have to pick a scenario and give financial advice. The scenario I picked was the following:
" A 35-year-old married couple with two young children want to sell their townhouse and buy a larger house in a time of low interest rates and low inflation. The would also like to trade their 8-year -old minican for a nw fashionable SUV"

How will low interest rates and low inflation affect the advice I give?

If i buy shares in a company and then, at the end of the year, the company makes huge profits does some of that profit go to shareholders? or the only profit to make off of shares is if the price goes up and I sell the shares?

I am 17 years old, almost 18. I am interested in investing in the stock market. My grandpa has taught me a little bit about it. I need more advice...maybe from somebody who recently invested and succeeded or somebody who works in this field.

Things I don't understand:
-How much money I'd need to put in an investment(for example I don't know if I can just put $100 or if it has to be thousands, so please help with that)
-How to buy stock without a broker

I'd like to hear from anyone if they feel they can help me out.

Thanks,
Sam

i miss the long bond ! yes they brought it back3 yrs ago but it ain't the same..that lower risk 10 year remains the bellwether. i miss trading bond futures...they're not as liquid and haven't been for a decade. trading ten year futures is boring...5 yrs more so... need to bring back the days when bonds moved 3-4-5 points like in the 80's and early 90's..with a steep curve, and even at sub-5%, our idiots at treasury still think that financing america through lower 2 yr treasury rates is cheaper than through long bonds. treasury is committing a mistake similiar to those who in the last 4 years financed their mortgages with low teaser rate arms and now face higher long term fixed rates as opposed to having bot homes at long 30 yr fixed costs of 5%. but of course, uncle sam bailed them out last week and froze their rates ( in a free makt economy ???) through the HOPE NOW ALLIANCE ( you gotta be kidding me...HOPE!)
