In the "whatever it's worth department" Charles Schwab has no idea what date you have to buy the "P" in order to get the dividend. They initially said yesterday but today they said today and then they said they were going to have call in the "EXPERT"... I assume that means Mr. Schwab.. Merrill Lynch gave me two answers as well. The problem seems to be that there was no ex-dividend date stated so if you take the position that record date and ex-div date are one and the same and in the absence of further info from the company then it seems to be tomorrow all the way up to 3:59:59
