Dividend question

Question

I&#x27;m considering selling my GE but the ex-dividend date is coming up on 9/20 and the record date is 9/24. The cash declare date was 9/7. If I sold my shares today, would I still receive the dividend in October on the pay date? Also, if I bought it back before 9/20, would I be entitled to the dividend? Thanks in advance.

FN,The key date is ex-div..gotta hold it by ex-div..The declaration date is not of issue, paydate is when they pay the ammt, but te ex-div date you have to hold it until then or own it by then.

Yep, that&#x27;s my boy! from the Clemson FSU game on Labor day. I yelled touchdown when Clemson scored  their last TD and his arms went up. My wife and I looked at each other in amazement. She went and got the camera and he did it several more times. We are very lucky to have him. Thanks.
