I need to buy this share before 17/03/2010 right to get dividend right? When I can sell it? Can I sell after 20th march 2010 or do I need to sell it after the payment date? I need some help

This has been a bad week. Most shares dropped to lowest levels even if they made profits. What is happening? Is this normal for month of March? When this selling pressure will stop?

Will the mother share always decrease in price during ex-dividend?
