"fogthemogg, you don't know the answer so stop accusing other people who post chat as part of this debate of muddying waters."
I do know the answer and I've told people on multiple occasions, on different boards no less, by just using one sentence to make it clear.
Instead, we get these jumbled essays from ill-informed people, waffling about record dates, settlement days and what the weather is like. Then they're trying to guess how many days before the record date one should be holding, or even worse they're telling everyone they need to be holding ON THE record date to be eligible. You've missed the divi then.
Harbour Energy went ex yesterday for example, yet there were people getting confused and asking if they're still going to get the divi if they're holding on the record date, which is today. It's mental!
