Dear Reader,
We have identified several energy stocks which are expected to go “Ex-Dividend” very soon.
If you purchase a stock on its ex-dividend date or after, you will not receive the next dividend payment.
Instead, the seller gets the dividend. If you purchase before the ex-dividend date, you get the dividend.
If you sell your stock before the ex-dividend date, you also are selling away your right to the stock dividend.
So please keep this in mind.
