Doesn't a NAV of $14.70 ish automatically mean no div ?

You'd think so, but there was a big surprise a couple of months ago. There was no dividend on the announcement day, but a day or 2 later Brompton gave a separate announcement.

But isn't announcement day today ? Is it based on the closing NAV last night ?

I fear this is manipulative dumping based on a lack of knowledge and transparency.....

Just a slight difference in wording. There was NO declaration there would be NO dividend but rather Brompton declared dividends on other stocks but for whatever reason excluded DGS and subsequently advised the dividend "would" be paid. I'm personally hoping for a similar situation this month and assume we'll hear on Monday if not today.

The last time it happened it was on the cusp by a penny or so. Unless today finishes extremely strong, I don't see it happening but will be happy to be wrong.

This. Pretty challenging to make informed decisions if the informers are not principled enough to stick to their guidelines. Annoying to lose out because someone changed the rules in the last inning.

Brompton did change their mind a couple of months ago, however the unit NAV showed $14.99. A penny under threshold ( not counting payment of distributions). Yesterday's posted unit NAV is $14.78, $0.22 difference! We should be so lucky??
