ex-dividend date

Read a random definition: excess judgment

A quick definition of ex-dividend date:

Ex-Dividend Date: The ex-dividend date is the day on or after which a person who buys a stock or security will not receive the recently declared dividend. This means that if you buy a stock on or after the ex-dividend date, you will not be entitled to receive the dividend payment. It is also known as the ex-date.

A more thorough explanation:

EX-DIVIDEND DATE

The ex-dividend date is the date on or after which the buyer of a security does not acquire the right to receive a recently declared dividend. It is also known as the ex-date.

Let's say a company declares a dividend of $0.50 per share and sets the ex-dividend date as July 1st. If you buy the stock on or before June 30th, you will be entitled to receive the dividend. However, if you buy the stock on or after July 1st, you will not receive the dividend.

Another example is if you own a stock and want to sell it, you need to make sure you sell it before the ex-dividend date if you want to receive the dividend. If you sell it on or after the ex-dividend date, the buyer will receive the dividend instead of you.

The ex-dividend date is important for investors who want to receive dividends from the stocks they own. It is the date on or after which the buyer of a security does not acquire the right to receive a recently declared dividend. The examples illustrate how the ex-dividend date works and how it affects investors who own or want to buy/sell stocks.

they splurgin out dem rs nd wls at smu but i din get none
16:38
@Law-Shark: they didn't say we had to go? and if they are willing to buy rooms for a bunch of people. they sent me a res because I was over 50 miles away but I didn't even ask for one
16:42
@Law-Shark: also kind of rude for you to be speaking to me like that, the event started at 9am and I had to wakeup at 4 to drive in. i was tired and couldn't even check in until 4pm if I wanted to so I just drove back. it's unprofessional to offer it the night before and not the day after. they also didn't feed us actual food and we were there until 2pm.

The fact you didn't think a reservation in your name is something you need to be responsible for and cancel if you weren't going to show up to by sending a simple email is absolutely iresponsible.
16:43
I didn't make a reservation tho?
16:44
Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances
Law-Shark
16:44
Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain.
16:45

Law-Shark

disconnect*
Law-Shark
16:45
You live and you learn
16:45
because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
16:46
but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all
Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
16:48
goof
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
