Got mine on the 12th, TD. Did you sell/buy on the wrong date. Many here are confused with ex-dividend and number of days to clear a trade. Following their information may have cost you. I hope not.

Again...do not get caught up in number of days etc etc. it just causes confusion. the x div date means AS of that day if you buy you do NOT get the div THUS if you buy any day BEFORE the x div day you get the $$ don't get hung up on clearing , the exchange has done that fir you by giving you the x date

Of course , you owned the stock the day Before, the x date. that is why in many cases the share price decreases on the x date because it trading without the dividend It's the buyers on the x date who do not get the divi the sellers do

Good News for you Hope it was back dated to the 12th & your brokerage firm DIDNOT use your cash during the payment delay.... All the best in your Investments Regards, TimeBuilder
