The high dividend stock season is approaching ... Typically, securities that pay dividends will go XD (Exclude Dividend) about 1-2 months before the dividend payment date. This means that anyone who buys that stock after the XD date will not receive the dividend for that period.

Therefore, if there is an opportunity to receive dividends but at the cost of a loss in stock price, it may not be worth it. At the same time, if investors are confident in the business of that stock, waiting for the right moment to buy can lead to a price increase rather than a significant drop, which can also be observed.
