Dividend Dates Explained

Subscribe:
When is the cutoff date for buying a stock in order to get its dividend? When do I actually get my dividend? For investors, the answers to these questions aren’t always clear. We’ll explain how the cutoff date—called the ex-dividend date—works and talk about other important dates related to dividends: the declaration date, record date, and payment date.

We post educational videos that bring investing and finance topics back down to earth weekly. Have a question or topic suggestion? Let us know.
