RE:RE:RE:RE:RightsI know so, as the 40,000 rights have been deposited into my trading account as of last night.
The record date was Thursday you are right. That is also know as the settlement date. If you bought shares on Monday the settlement date (or record date) is three days later which was August 14th and I sold Tuesday morning which would have been settled on August 15th. It says it pretty clear in the ELW news release but another way is to look at your trade history and you will see the trade date and the settlement date. Its the settlement date that is the important date to look for. Bottom line IF you held shares after Mondays close then you will get your rights. Hope it works out for you and you get your rights.
