At what time do I need to be in a stock to qualify for their dividend?
Also, what is the earliest day that I can sell the stock and get to keep the dividend?
You need to buy the stock prior to the ex-dividend date. You can sell it the day it goes ex-dividend and still get the dividend. So, you only need to own the shares one day, but you need to be aware that the stock price will open down the amount of the dividend on the day it goes ex-dividend. ie, a stock that closed at $20 on tuesday, (assuming wed is ex-date) will open at 19.50 (assuming a .50 dividend). The stock will then trade up or down depending on buy and sell orders. If you are trying to do some dividend capture trading, remember that others are too, and selling pressure on the ex-date may preclude your getting out with a profit. And, other market forces are typically greater that the dividend amount, so beware. You will do best if you sort of get to know a stock and how it typically trades. Then compare its chart to a sector etf to get a better timing feel. ie a utility stock and XLU the utility ETF. Good luck.
I checked her name out. IT IS A SCAM!!! NOT REAL!!!! but I want her to stop messaging me, how?
Here’s a copy of her first message_
Dearest,
I’m delighted and honourd writing this letter to you,and I hope and pray that you be the honest man that will bring meaning into my life, Though currently I am seeking asylum in a refugees camp in place called Ouagadougou the capital of Republic of Burkina Faso in West Africa. My name is Miss.Jessica Kipkalya Kones, 22yrs old female and I held from Kenya.
My father was the former Kenyan road Minister. He and Assistant Minister of Home Affairs Lorna Laboso had been on board the Cessna 210, which was headed to Kericho and crashed in a remote area called Kajong’a, in western Kenya. The plane crashed on the Tuesday 10th, June,2008. You can read more about the crash through the below
site:http://edition…cnn..com/2008/WORLD/africa/06/10/kenya.crash/index.html After the burial of my father, my stepmother Mrs,Biatrez and uncle conspired and sold my father’s properties to an italian Expertrate which the shared the money among themselves and live nothing for me.One faithful morning, I opened my father’s briefcase and found out the documents which he have deposited huge amount of money in one bank in Burkina Faso with my name as the next of kin.
I travelled to Burkina Faso to withdraw the money for a better life so that I can take care of myself and start a new life, on my arrival, the Bank Director whom I met in person told me that my father’s instuction to the bank is that the money would only be release to me when I am married or present a trustee who will help me and invest the money overseas. I am in search of an honest and reliable person who will help me and stand as my trustee so that I will present him to the Bank for transfer of the money to his bank account overseas.
I have chosen to contact you after my prayers and I believe that you will not betray my trust. But rather take me as your own sister. Though you may wonder why I am so soon revealing myself to you without knowing you, well I will say that my mind convinced me that you may be the true person to help me. Moreso, I will like to disclose much to you if you can help me to relocate to your country because my stepmother have threaten to assinate me. The amount is( $7.2 USD )Million United State Dollars, and I have confirmed from the bank in Burkina Faso on my arrival, You will also help me to place the money in a more profitable business venture in your Country. However, you will help by recommending a nice University in your country so that I can complete my studies.
It is my intention to compensate you with 30% of the total money for your services and the balance shall be my capital in your establishment. As soon as I receive your positive response showing your interest I will put things into action immediately. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely. Awaiting your urgent and positive response. Please do keep this only to your self. I beg you not to disclose it till i come over because I am affraid of my weaked stepmother who has threatened to kill me and have the money alone ,I thank God Today that am out from my country (KENYA) bUT am now In (Burkina Faso) where my father deposited these money and i have confirmed from the bank with the Documents i have at hand. Here is my picture is for you alone.
Sincerely yours ,
Miss.Jessica Kipkalya Kones.

LETS SAY that a CEO had agreed to a merger with another company. But the Board of Directors had no knowledge of the deal. eventually they find out and pass a Vote of No-Confidence against the CEO would that void the merger?
and yes the CEO if also the majority owner (51%)
The CEO doesn’t have the power to agree to a merger alone, unless the CEO owns all the company’s shares of stock.
