possibly..I was guessing today would be a down day(at least early) as anyone who was a buyer of USSSE would have bought in by yesterday to get the divy. The sellers are people who bought in(or more likely bought more) just for the divy and sold today knowing the settlement date would be after Dec 1. Thus the early selling pressure.
The problem is.. shareholders just might have to hold until the pay out date(unknown at this time)...so those sellers today would not get the divy shares.
how can you be a holder of the shares on december 1st when you sell today or tomorrow? Makes no sense to me. When selling, you lose the share immediately and not after a settlement period of 3 days. That only holds for buying shares.
