I sure do. Whenever I buy a stock ex div I don't expect to receive the dividend. If August 20 is the record date and August 21 the exdiv date, and it opens on August 21 at $25 rather than the $37 1/2 it was the previous close, and if it closes on August 21 at $25 the newspaper will say "no change". I was just wondering if the ex div date was August 20 or August 21? It certainly isn't August 24 or at least I don't think it is. Perhaps someone will get the exact details from the company and post them.
