I have dividend question.
Say you buy 100 shares of xyz prior to the ex-div date at $10.
Dividens are reinvested
The stock rises to $11 and you put a stop in 10.50.

the day the div is paid out the stock drops to 10.40 so you are stopped out 10.50.

What happens to the dividens? Do you get paid them since you were a shareholder the on ex-div date?
Where would they go if you were set up as DRIP because you no longer hold the stock.

I guess bottom line is I am looking for good stop points on div stocks where i wont lose the stock if the price goes down the day the dividend is paid out.
