    Default Dividend Payments

    Here is another amateur investor question for you.

    Do companies with dividend paying stocks anounce when they are going to pay dividends?

    Yes. It's called the Ex-Dividend Date. Yahoo has it under key statistics. Here an example for IBM, http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=IBM

    The Ex-Dividend Date is the date you have to own the stock in order to receive that dividend.
