Here is our latest update on the stock trading technique called ‘Buying Dividends’. This is the process of buying stocks before the ex dividend date and selling the stock shortly after the ex date at about the same price, yet still being entitled to the dividend . This technique generally works only in bull markets. In flat or choppy markets, you have to be extremely careful. In order to be entitled to the dividend, you have to buy the stock before the ex-dividend date, and you can’t sell the stock until after the ex date. The actual dividend may not be paid for another few weeks. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has compiled a downloadable and sortable list of the stocks going ex dividend during the next week or two. The list contains many dividend paying companies, all with market caps over $500 million, and yields over 2%. Here are a few examples showing the stock symbol, the market capitalization, the ex-dividend date and the yield. LTC Properties, Inc. (LTC) market cap: $734.1M ex div date: 3/21/2011 yield: 6.0% Telefonos de Mexico, S.A. (TMXLF) ex div date: 3/21/2011 yield: 4.8% Xcel Energy Inc. (XEL) market cap: $10.8B ex div date: 3/22/2011 yield: 4.3% Portland General Electric Company (POR) market cap: $1.7B ex div date: 3/23/2011 yield: 4.6% The additional ex-dividend stocks can be found at wsnn.com. (If you have been to the website before, and the latest link doesn’t show up, you may have to empty your cache.) If you like dividend stocks, you should check out the high yield utility stocks and the Monthly Dividend Stocks at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com or WSNN.com. Dividend definitions: Declaration date: the day that the company declares that there is going to be an upcoming dividend. Ex-dividend date: the day on which if you buy the stock, you would not be entitled to that particular dividend; or the first day on which a shareholder can sell the shares and still be entitled to the dividend. Record date : the day when you must be on the company’s books as a shareholder to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is normally set for stocks two business days before the record date. Payment date: the day on which the dividend payment is actually made, which can be as long at two months after the ex date. Don’t forget to reconfirm the ex-dividend date with the company before implementing this technique. Disclosure: Author did not own any of the above at the time the article was written.

Amid about as much bad news and uncertainty from Japan as you’d want to deal with, the performance of U.S. equities on Monday was relatively sanguine. While stocks did touch their lowest point in more than five weeks, they also rallied enough to pull themselves essentially even with their level on Thursday, when the market staged a significant selloff. By Monday’s close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had lost 51 points to 11,993, the Nasdaq fell 15 points to 2701 and the S&P 500 was off 8 points to 1296. The weekend’s events in Japan added even more complexity to Monday’s trade, as one would expect. Combining with the selloff itself in Japan’s Nikkei Index, which fell more than 6% on Monday — its biggest decline in more than two years — was the push-and-pull of oil prices: in short, how to compute both the still-uncertain Middle East (higher-price bias) and still-uncertain Japan (lower-price bias, due to lowered demand? For Monday, you don’t, as the oil prices were essentially a push, finishing close to flat at just more than $101 a barrel. But this was down day for stocks and, those that suffered were those that have, for now, taken on more risk as investors — and consumers — are forced to address the near-term and long-term role of the nuclear industry in the U.S. Shares of General Electric (NYSE: GE ), which was a supplier to the Japanese nuclear plant now on the minds of every Japanese citizen, finished 2.2% lower on Monday. The Dow Jones Utility Average slumped 1.4%. But it was also the day to put money to work in other energy suppliers — namely, solar wind and even coal. The Guggenheim Solar (NYSE: TAN ) exchange-traded fund climbed 5.4%, while the First Trust Global Wind Energy (NYSE: FAN ) ETF rose 3%. Coal miner Natural Resource Partners (NYSE: NRP ) added nearly 6% in Monday trading. As it played out, not much in Monday’s market session suggested anything other than uncertainty is the backdrop for this week. Bond traders bid their market higher, pushing the 10-year note’s yield down to 3.36% — its lowest close in nearly six weeks. And the Volatility Index continued to add to its uptrend of the past month.
