Hi All,
Sorry to go off the topic of BHP a bit although i'm looking to buy into BHP at some point in the future.
Just a question from a newbie, put simply.
What is the minimum amount of thime that I must hold shares in a company in order to be entitled to be payed a dividend? For example if company xyz is going ex-dividend on the 1st of November & has a record date of the 7th of November. If I bought 10000 shares in that company just after the opening of trading *on* the 7th (record date) & then sold those 10000 shares a few minutes later, would company xyz still be entitled to pay me a dividend per 10000 shares at some later point (the pay date)??? Is it this simple or more complex. Basically i'm just looking at the possibility of making a *quick* quid buying shares that are paying dividends & holding them just for long enough to be entitled for that payment.
Thanks for any responses & best of Luck with BHP (the greatest miner on earth, far superior to RIO)
