Im trying to find a site or reference of the Ex-Dividend dates of all the companies that offer dividends on the ASX.
The best I seem to be able to find is a list of Dividends coming up in the next month and even then it seems to not have all of them.

Is there a resource somewhere?

Also if someone is able to answer, what normaly happens around the Ex-Dividend date with price movements in the SP?
ie if Company XYZ was going to pay out a 50cent dividend, with people wanting to own a share on that date would it increase the price of the share by around 50cents that date?
 
Re: Ex-Dividend Dates

Usually the SP would reflect the dividend expectation in the months coming up to the ex-date, the price usually falls by the dividend amount on the ex-dividend date. There is often an arbitrage opportunity for the franking credits... Ie the dividend is $0.50 fully franked, but the SP only falls by $0.50 on the ex-date, the franking is a bonus since the SP never fell by the franking amount.
 
Re: Ex-Dividend Dates

Wow ok thats a good point.
I was talking to someone the other day and they were saying they usually buy a couple weeks before the Ex-Dividend date and then sell after it missing the surge in price and if lucky scores from selling at the inflated price.

Having said that if the shares are sold within 45 days youre still taxed arent you?

As for a list of Ex-Dividend dates, I take it one doesnt exist?
 
I don't know of a list of dates, but both broking websites and the ASX website have these dates available if you search by company.

Yeah by using Bell Direct I can use a quick way to select companies to find those dates.
Would be nice to have a chart.
Anyway not to worry.

For the list I just look in Commsec.

As for tax, you'll be taxed on any profits no matter the time frame. But if you hold for more than 1 year the tax is halved. Or if you have a loss from another share, that can offset the profit from another.
 
Ive seen that list previously. JBH goes ex-dividend on the 17th yet its not on the list.
 
If you have the new platform for commsec it is

Quotes & Research > News > Upcoming Dividends
 
Thanks also for the CommSec directions.

I usually just check the dividends section individually for companies or do a google search which usually leaves me at some ninemsn site. I am sure (I could be wrong) that in the past the upcoming dividend has been listed much sooner than it had this month.

For example, I couldn't find a mention of CBA dividend anywhere at all up until including Friday, and now I see that it is listed at CommSec; but it goes ex tomorrow, so I guess I missed that one.
 
Too bad Comsec doesn't allow sorting...or at least they should put them in chronological order.

I do see them in chronological order, but I don't have the new interface that the other guy mentioned. Anybody know how to get the new interface?
 
Pretty sure it is random, I had some issues when i upgraded mine and when I was on the phone to them they told me because I had made lots of trades lately that I was "selected" to get the new interface.

I have also seen other people from this forum ask commsec when they will get the new interface and there response was "As you are a vip client that he had to wait till any bugs had been sorted out"

Not sure where the posts were made but they are on here somewhere

Found the link https://www.aussiestockforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22749&page=2&highlight=commsec
 
BKN and CBA go XD today. So if someone sells thm today they get the dividend or do they have to sell tomorrow - please?
Thanks
Rick

PS: Should add that I bought both last week.
