Hi vt,
I think a lot of silly money will be leaving yield for growth if the market stays strong for a while. They shouldn't drop at all vt when divis are paid but after the date of record...

Understand the Dates...
Dividend Date , ex-dividend, date of record .....
-Dividend date... When the distribution is paid.
-Date of Record The day you must be the REGISTERED owner of the issue to qualify for the dividend.
-EX-Dividend Date CALCULATED using Date of Record and 3 day closing rule.
eg:
CALGARY, Aug. 19 /CNW/ - Acclaim Energy Trust (TSX: AE.UN - News) announces that a cash distribution of C$0.1625 per trust unit will be paid on September 19, 2003 to unitholders of record on August 29, 2003. The trust units of Acclaim will commence trading on an ex-distribution basis on August 27, 2003.

On Aug 27 it is too late to buy and get the Sep 19 distribution. Buy the day BEFORE the ex-div date Aug 26 (Aug 26 plus 3 days for closing = Aug 29) , and you qualify for the Sept 19 distribution

Then again from the same post
Buying opportunities:
-Like regular stocks placements often provide windows of opportunity. Be on the watch especially after an acquisition is announced. Placements are not always announced in concert or sometimes they do debt financing instead etc... Also if you use TD-Greenline, one thing they do nicely is the 'New Issues' section where you can place an expression of interest (a buy) on a new issue on line and see a list of new ones.

-Dividend Date , ex-dividend -date of record ..... Watch these dates... sometimes funny things happen due to lack of understanding I suspect of these dates. Dates explained below. Prices often drop more than the payout for some insane reason... yum yum. ;o)

regards
Kastel
