But In The Record Of

If I buy a stock before the ex dividend date but sell before the record date, do I get a dividend?

Yes, if you hold it past the ex-dividend date.The ex-dividend date is the first trade date a stock trades without rights to the dividend. So you bought before the ex date and held it until some time after the ex date, and then you sold. You get the dividend.Record date is the date you become owner of record. In other words the trade has settled. The difference between trade date and record date is due to the 3-day lag in settlement. You must be the owner of record to get the dividend.Example: Buy on 5th, a Monday. Trade settles on 8th- you are then the owner of record. Stock goes ex on 6th. You sell on the 7th. You are the owner of record until the sale settles, on Monday the 12th. When you bought the stock on 5th, you bought rights to the dividend also.Remember, the stock price falls by the amount of the dividend when it goes ex. Otherwise there would be an opportunity for arbitrage.

Why does my record player platter spin but not my record?

Without seeing your turntable it’s hard to say, but here are some things to check. Some players have a spindle that does not turn with the platter. If this is the case your record may be sticking on the spindle. Gently ream out the hole in the record with a small knife. If the record is sitting flat on the platter, the spindle turns with the platter but the record is not turning, well, you’ve got me here. Try cleaning the platter and the record. Also, a severely warped record will not turn properly with the platter. While I’ve never seen this, if the stylus is digging into the record and holding it in place that would also keep the record from spinning — although this is a real longshot.
