Well I was implying that there will be a press release because they previously announced the 31st as the record date. If it is not the record they would have to announce that as well.
The posts I wrote strongly worded that settled funds and record date are two different rules. The transfer agent makes a list provided by all the brokers (collected Friday) along with the number of shares held. The list will be used to distribute dividends and warrants.
Settled funds determine your ability to buy/sell. It would be absurd to argue the ownership when you buy/sell --- profits and ownership traded immediately with the buy/sell action.
