What Does Ex-Dividend Mean?
A dividend is a part of the profit of a company distributed among the shareholders. The ex-dividend date is very important:
- After a stock goes ex-dividend, the price tends to shift down to indicate the amount paid out of the company.
- The dividend will not be paid to investors who purchase the stock on or later than this date.
- This is limited to those who are already in possession of the stock before the ex-date.
This timing would help investors make intelligent, properly timed income plans.
