In one of the very first posts you say, that as a part of your Ivey curriculum you guys were taken to meet Warren Buffet and had a video conference with Walter Schloss. Is this a regular part of the Ivey curriculum or was this a one off? Which year did you graduate from Ivey?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />RahimAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15501559053486625675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294165939647321702.post-54103288487595437672012-11-01T15:08:19.755-04:002012-11-01T15:08:19.755-04:00FRS may be able to shed some light on this...

The thing I wonder though is in all their press releases and filling they state October 30th as the date. <br /><br />So would the Nasdaq rule for greater than 25% of the company value apply even if the company states otherwise in a filling?Wade Garetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15190027648604869493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294165939647321702.post-72921360260713616612012-11-01T10:01:46.528-04:002012-11-01T10:01:46.528-04:00Saj,

The stock will trade on an ex-distribution basis (adjusted for the amount of the dividend paid) on the trading day after the dividend date.<br />To be entitled to a special dividend, you need to be a stockholder on the record date. To be a stockholder on the record date, your purchase would need to have been made a minimum of three business days prior to the record date (you also need to own it on the ex-dividend date)."<br /><br />So you would need to own it BOTH on the record date AND the ex-div date.
