Hi, Just have a couple of questions re: Dividends:
- Anyway other then company announcements to obtain knowledge of an ex dividend date?
- How long do I have to keep my shares after the ex dividend date to be eligible for the dividend distribution? for example if I sell my shares a day after ex dividend date will I still receive the dividend?

If your focus is to receive the dividend, then you need to buy before it goes ex dividend. (Just in case you were suggesting it was the record date that was more important.)
