Stocks Going Ex Dividend November 2019


Please note that this is a sister publication of WallStreetNewsNetwork ( http://WStNN.com ) and eventually everything on this site will be transferred over there.



The following is a short list of some of the many stocks going ex dividend during the next month.
Many traders and investors use the stock trading technique called ‘Buying Dividends,’ also commonly referred to as ‘Dividend Capture.’ This is the strategy of buying stocks before the ex dividend date and selling the stock shortly after the ex date at about the same price, yet still being entitled to the dividend.
This technique generally works in bull markets and flat or choppy markets, but you need to avoid the strategy during bear markets. In order to be entitled to the dividend, you have to buy the stock before the ex-dividend date, and you can’t sell the stock until after the ex date.
The actual dividend may not be paid for another few weeks. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has compiled a downloadable and sortable list of the stocks going ex dividend in the near future. The list contains many dividend paying companies, lots with market caps over $500 million, and many with yields over 2%. Here are a few examples showing the stock symbol, the ex-dividend date, the periodic dividend amount.
Intel Corporation (INTC)11/6/20190.315
E*TRADE Financial Corporation (ETFC)11/7/20190.14
Target Corporation (TGT)11/19/20190.66
Lockheed Martin Corporation (LMT)11/29/20192.40
The additional ex-dividend stocks can be found HERE . (If you have been to the page before, and the latest link doesn’t show up, you may have to empty your cache.) If you like dividend stocks, you should check out some of the other high yield stock lists HERE . Most of the lists are free.
Dividend definitions:
Declaration date: the day that the company declares that there is going to be an upcoming dividend.
Ex-dividend date: the day on which if you buy the stock, you would not be entitled to that particular dividend; or the first day on which a shareholder can sell the shares and still be entitled to the dividend.
Record date: the day when you must be on the company’s books as a shareholder to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is normally set for stocks at two business days before the record date.
Payment date: the day on which the dividend payment is actually made, which can be as long at two months after the ex date.
Don’t forget to reconfirm the ex-dividend date with the company before implementing this technique.

How to Get 500 Stock and Option Trades for Free

If you trade stocks like me, you could trade ten or twenty trades a week. Assuming ten dollar commission per trade, you might end up paying $800 a month just on commission. That's not chump change! One way to look at it is that your account has to increase by $800 just to break even for the month. Ten dollars a trade might not seem like much but it adds up for an active trader.

One way to get a head start on your trading is by looking for deals that online stock brokerage firms are offering. Sometimes these firms offer cash bonuses to sign up and sometimes they offer free trades.

Free Trading for 60 Days

Right now, E*Trade (ETFC) is offering a special deal of 500 trades free of commissions for stock or option trades during the 60 day period after funds have cleared in the new account. This offer is available for Individual, Joint or Retirement accounts. Restrictions include:

  • the account must opened by 12/31/2013
  • the account must be funded within 60 days of opening the account
  • account must have at least $10,000

    There are some other restrictions. However, one additional bonus the company is offering is a $200 bonus if you deposit at least $25,000 and higher bonuses if $100,000 or more is put into the account.

    How to Invest in the Super Bowl

    This year, the American Football Conference [AFC] champion New England Patriots and the National Football Conference [NFC] champion New York Giants are in the Super Bowl XLVI held at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. The game used to be a popular indicator of the future of the stock market. The indicator states that if the NFC team wins, we will have a bull market this year, but if the AFC team wins, it will be a bear market. The indicator has been correct about 80% of the time.

    Corporations are shelling out $3.5 million for a 30 second television commercial. Most of the companies that have chosen to advertise during the Super Bowl XLVI broadcast are publicly traded stocks, so if you think these companies will benefit from this advertising, now is the time to take a closer look at them and get a touchdown with your picks. Here is a list of the advertisers along with their stock ticker symbols.

    Toyota ( TM ) has a couple commercials promoting its Toyota Camry, plus a Lexus ad. Toyota trades at 11 times forward earnings and yields 1.2%.

    General Motors ( GM ) advertises the Cadillac, plus it is really pushing various Chevy brands including the Chevy Volt, the Chevy Silverado, and the Chevy Sonic through three different Chevrolet commercials. GM has a forward price to earnings ratio of 7 but does not pay a dividend.

    Anheuser-Busch Inbev (BUD) is marketing Bud Light beer though its commercial. The stock has a forward PE of 15 and yield 1.5%.

    Pepsi ( PEP ) tries to show how Pepsi MAX is better than Coke Zero. Pepsi pays a nice yield of 3.1% and trades at 15 times forward earnings.

    E*TRADE ( ETFC ) used the famous baby to promote the E*TRADE's new 360 investing dashboard. The stock has a forward price to earnings ratio of 13.

    Groupe Danone ( DANOY ) is the company that makes Dannon Oikos Greek Yogurt, another Super Bowl advertised product. The stock has a forward PE of 16.

    Bridgestone ( BRDCY ) is another advertiser. The stock has a price to earnings ratio of 12.

    Honda ( HMC ) is pushing its Acura NSX and Honda CR-V. The stock has a forward PE of 9 and a CD beating yield of 2%.

    Procter & Gamble ( PG ) is publicizing its Downy Unstopables product. It trades at 15 times forward earnings and has a fairly high dividend payout of 3.3%.

    Coca-Cola ( KO ) has its 'Polar bears like Coke' commercials. Coke yields 2.8% and trades at 17 times earnings.

    Skechers ( SKX ) is promoting, guess what, Skechers. The stock has a forward PE of 28.
