redback5,

because the ex dividends date is on the 5th that means that if you sell on that day you will still receive the dividends i believe. Say if you sell on the 6th you'll definitely receive it but payment will be done on the 11th.....

I'm holding to dividends no matter what !!!! ive been waiting 2 years for something like this and it is GREAT to finally see the day... Considering the SP is still so low, i am even considering holding it after the dividends until it is more realistically priced..... GL everyone and hopefully you are all a bit happier about your SIP positions....
