Surely tho if it was announced way before which they did I think already I seen them say they weren’t going to make as much this year and this goes for many companies tbh. Burberry etc repliy on China as well majorly.
For rio it always seems to be some law suit/China but I have a decent amount in them and I feel their a good company overall but it can be quite bumpy at times or cynical as they put it.
Anytime I see big drops it’s Usally ore prices, China, a claim, or drop in divs or profits even though it’s obv on why but I know some prefer to sell buy something else then once rio recovers jump back in.
@Kiava you’re technically right. Today is ex-dividend day, the first day that YOU DON’T qualify. That really makes yesterday as dividend day in reality.
On 18 April 2024, we will pay the 2023 final ordinary dividend to holders of ordinary shares and holders of ADRs on the register at the close of business on 8 March 2024 (record date). The ex-dividend date is 7 March 2024.
