When must you buy a stock in order to receive it's dividend?
When considering a dividend while purchasing securities there are several dates that are very important. These dates include the declaration date, ex-dividend date, record date, and payable date. First, lets define these dates...Declaration Date - The date on which the company declares it's dividendEx-Dividend Date - The date on which purchasing the security no longer includes it's dividendRecord Date - The date on which you must be registered on the company's books to still receive the dividendPayable Date - The date on which you actually receive the dividendAn Example of how these dates might look on a calendar:March 3rd declaration dateMarch 18th ex-dividend dateMarch 20th record dateApril 10th payable dateThe confusion and mistakes often occur when not accounting for settlement time on an investment. You do not own a stock on the company's books until your purchase has settled. When purchasing a stock, settlement starts on the trade date and takes three business days. Because of this fact the ex-dividend date (or first day stock trades without it's dividend) is two business days before the record date. This allows the stock that is purchased the day before the ex-dividend just enough time to settle on the record date entitling the investor to the dividend.On the other hand, an investor can sell a stock on the ex-dividend date and still be paid it's dividend regardless of if they own the stock on the day it's actually paid.For more information see Related Links for an explanation from the SEC

What is ex dividend rate?
The ex-dividend date (typically 2 trading days before the record date for U.S. securities) is the day on which all shares bought and sold no longer come attached with the right to be paid the most recently declared dividend. This is an important date for any company that has many stockholders, including those that trade on exchanges, as it makes reconciliation of who is to be paid the dividend easier. Existing holders of the stock will receive the dividend even if they now sell the stock, whereas anyone who now buys the stock will not receive the dividend. It is relatively common for a stock's price to decrease on the ex-dividend date by an amount roughly equal to the dividend paid. This reflects the decrease in the company's assets resulting from the declaration of the dividend. The company does not take any explicit action to adjust its stock price; in an efficient market, buyers and sellers will automatically price this in.
