RE: RE: BUYING OPPORTUNITY!!!

If you bought after the last ex-div date and are looking to cash in on capital gains rather the dividend (better tax treatment) then keep an eye out for the press release announcing the next ex-div date and sell before then. The stock price will drop on the ex-div date. Sounds obvious but just making sure for those of you who don't want to assume the obvious.
