should I "start" new thread or wait until mod "locked" this one first?

as stocks declare dividends a par value.
If they say 10% per share.
Mean 10% of par value right?
So it's not based on the current stock price..

New tHREAD

If got no par value, how to declare a % on par vale

It would not math sense ......

I get it now.. TQ! SKY Gor~

so there's no requirement on how long we must hold the REIT before we can receive the dividend??

let's say, I'm a newbie and never invested in REIT. If I invest just before the Ex-date of the income distribution (like in the case of IGB), do I still get 0.0361 per share? Or does it have to get a purata over the last financial year (or quarter)?

You will get the divd if u own the REIT before Ex date..

I see. That means one can still get the full dividend (for example RM 0.0361 per share for IGBREIT) even if he buys before the Ex date and sell all after the Ex date, and he doesn't hold any REITs throughout the year?

then every year, before the Ex-date, the price will go up, no?

Better learn fast, then u can get some discounts on tuition fees.....

yaya, once on EX date, you can sell, but normally not recommended as price normally adjust back by the dividend given out..

Correct ? SKY gor?

Hehe,
yes Sir..

U make sense now .....surely Bursa would adjust the price down a few x sen according to the x sen given out.as DPU or dividend.....

But there is a possibility someone may push up ....later like some stocks I have ...not always lah
