RE:After exdividendThat is normal. For example lets say a $1 stock pays a $0.10 divy. If you buy the last day you can to qualify for that divy and you pay the $1 then a few days later you will get $0.10 back in the form of the divy. So really you just paid only $0.90 for the stock. So if you buy this the day after you would qualify for the divy ( the ex divy day) then you would also only want to pay $0.90 just like the person who bought the day before ultimatly ends up paying. Right.
