You have to be on record on ex date, which means you have to buy about four days before ex date



Dividend will be paid on payment date.



How does this work, the price can't be manipulated manually like a unit trust.

Buy ON ex date? Good luck

Eh you are right.. sorry about that, T+3 slipped my mind

Nothing to do with T+3. If you buy on ex date.. you don't get the dividend.

I thought you are 'pro' investor?

Oh no we are arguing again.. why is that nothing to do with T+3? if you can find a way to be on record immediately after you buy it on ex date you should be eligible.

won't get dividend on ex-date.

been there, done that.

bought sunreit on ex-date. habuk also tarak.

lol siapa ajar buy on ex-date get divvy

find "ways"?
can geh, u sendiri call up the seller, ask him to do Standing Instruction and remit HIS dividend to you once he receives it lor
I'm sure many would be pleased to do that for u

and unit trust prices can be manually "manipulated"?

wow, just, wow

Something is weird here.. wait see this :

http://www.bursamalaysia.com/market/listed...cements/3611373

It's not filled in, but it says "both dates inclusive". If it was filled in, it would have the ex-date and payment date. Why does it say "both dates inclusive" if both dates are not inclusive?

Are you saying that the price will drop more that the dividend? if not how does the seller make a profit from that?



You only just realized that? a unit trust is an artificial construct, it isn't listed on Bursa, who determines what the price is at the end of the day?

Allah will determine

LOL, here it comes again

Happy weekend

non-muslim is ban from using the word

Not arguing.. just stating the facts.

There is ex-date and entitlement date. The latter is for record purpose for dividend payment.

T+3 is payment date (bank pay for you first), some securities give T+7, T+11 etc..

Proof here :

See May 19.. dividend $0.65 declared, what is the price on May 20? and what is the price on May 21? did it drop by $0.65 in any of those days?

You want more proof?

https://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE%3ATGT...JCtOhuATtr6CADA

Where is the drop?

Now look at your mutual fund.. I can guarantee you it will drop by exactly the dividend amount after ex date. How can I do that? go ask a fund manager, any fund manager. They will tell you that they set it that way. In a unit trust the price after a dividend is set (ie. manually manipulated) by the fund manager.

In a listed counter, the price is always determined by supply and demand. No one person or agency manually sets the price. There should be no reason why the price of a share should not go up (or down) after a dividend is declared.

Okay.. but what does "both dates inclusive" mean then?

Any dividend amount is immediately deducted from closing date before ex date and on opening of the ex-date.

This is as per rules for KLSE and also on other exchanges.

Don't know where you learn your investing from, but better brush up on the knowledge.

Don't talk driving if u can't even tell accelerator pedal from the brake pedal, i.e. the BASICS.
Yeah there is drifting, there is heel-and-toe braking and other advanced techniques...
But u don't even know...the basics.

U are wasting others' time and make a fool of yourself

Unless that is your intention
