Ex-Dividend Dates Coming This Week: Energy Dividend Stocks

Dear Reader,

We have identified several energy stocks which are expected to go “Ex-Dividend” starting Feb 3rd.

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.
