Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On October 04, 2013

The best yielding and biggest ex-dividend stocks researched by ”long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Dividend Investors should have a quiet overview of stocks with upcoming ex dividend dates.

In total, 10 stocks go ex dividend - of which 5 yield more than 3 percent. Here is a full list of all stocks with ex-dividend date within the current week.
