Hardly anyone saw that 1/17/19 date, or that press release. In fact, it wasn't even a 'release' -- it was just an article on information the company put out over a week ago. And that information did not include anything about the dividend. The article seems to have other typos in it, this might have been one as well. Who knows? It wasn't an official release from the company. It did not post to any stock sites. I wouldn't get too concerned about it. The only information that matters is what comes directly from the company. And AFAICT, they just decided to move up the dividend. Actually better than having to wait another month, IMO. And it probably arose due to their discussions with FINRA. Why wait if there is no need to?
Glad I bought when I did, and am holding for the long term. I see a lot of potential in this company, and they seem to be executing well for investors.
