American Midstream Partners LP (AMID)

[stargazer123]

AMID will pay $0.1031 on August 14 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on August 6, 2018.

The dividend itself won't be paid until August 14. The price that day will drop $0.1031, and as you say, the price usually falls further than the dividend. And it may even be falling between now and Aug 14. Possibly even after that.

I will be buying more on the 14th, or 15th, depending on how it is reacting. As you say, whatever the price, it will be a good buy in price, because the long term stock price will end up much higher.


If AMID starts rising from here, a drop of $0.1034 won't mean much, so if AMID's price starts rising before the August 14 dividend date, I may buy then, rather than wait for the dividend date.
