Ex dividend date is the first day the stock trades wihtout value for the upcoming dividend payment.
To make sure you receive your dividend, the earlier you can sell is opening of pre-market on ex-date.
Ex-date is used to identify who is eligible for the upcoming dividend (just before record date). Pay date is when the dividend is actually paid out to eligible shareholders.
The ex-date is one business day before the record date. Record date is the day on which a company identifies shareholders eligible for a dividend payout.
The strategy is to buy shares the day before ex-date and sell on ex-date, usually holding the stock for less than 24h just to capture the dividend.
This may vary, the average is anywhere between 1 and 4 weeks.
Technically for two business days but you buy just before market closes and sell just after market re-opens.
Ex dates are usually announced in a shareholder meeting and press release.
The common strategy is to pick a stable stock and hold for a long time collecting dividends. This strategy is more speculative since you will be holding the stock only for required time to collect the dividend.
It depends on your goal. If you wish to hold a stock, buying right after the dividend ex-date will give you a good dip. If instead you wish to collect the upcoming dividend you need to purchase before the ex-date.
Usually there is a sharp dip (normally in the same amoujnt of the dividend to be paid out) but then it recovers over time.
The person holding the stock before the ex-date will be eligible on record date and receive the dividend.
