To receive a dividend of .627 you must own 1 share of VZ at Close of Market on 4/7/2021.
You will receive that payout on 05/03/2021.
That is all that matters.
Ex date, record date ........ ignore not important at all for a individual investor.
Yield is 4.31% ask you grandmother.
VZ stock is trash.

Pretty safe dividend yield too.

If $400000 needs to be sold on Thursday before the market is CloSed this Good Friday. Well fidelity could put that through at what around 2 pm
Please if you want dividend buy AT&T
If you want growth by T Mo
Seriously anyone who actually buys Verizon stock is fool
Anyone who actually holds it is a loser
It has been well under Performing for over two decades
If the board was not in bed with management all would be fired
Fair point - yes sometimes though the stock goes up too after the day of the ex date which is when the stock trades EXCepting the Dividend.
Timing is way important if the price goes down MoOre share are purchased when a price goes Down after ex date in fact the lower the better sometimes at least until payout date or a day or two later.
Rinse repeat tiny changes are big when done in LArge Volumes
It's not 4.3%, it's roughly a quarter of that. That's the annual yield, yet the dividend is paid quarterly.
Dividend capture is a viable strategy, but know the stock usually dips after the payout. Timing timing timing.
