Is it really necessary to post this information considering there is almost zero chance of them not paying out the usual dividend every month...hasn't changed from last month or the month before that and likely won't change next month, next year or likely 10 years from now....please post relevant information not meaningless stuff that we all know is going to happen.

Just bought and the settlement date was the 30th so does this mean I do receive the dividend?

NO, August 28 (August 26 due to the weekend) was the last day to own the stock and still get the dividend. Take the date of record August 31 and subtract 3 days for settlement gives you a x-dividend date of Aug 29.Therefore sellers of AVF on Aug. 29 will get the dividend on September 15. Hope this helps.

If you just bought today the settlement will not be the 30th if you bought a few days ago then yes it could be

if anyone wants to double check they can go to globeinvestor. under the "stocks" tab there is a drop down menu. select "dividends" and it will tell you all the stocks going ex-dividend for the next two weeks.
