No, you will not get the dividend if the ex-date is today. This is from investopedia:
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The ex-dividend date or ex-date marks the cutoff point for shareholders to be credited a pending stock dividend.
To receive the upcoming dividend, shareholders must have bought the stock before the ex-dividend date.
There are four dates to know when it comes to companies' dividends: the declaration date, the ex-dividend date, the record date, and the payable date.
On the ex-dividend date, stock prices typically decline by the amount of the dividend.
Anyway, ex-dividend is not really extra money. It's just money they'll take out from your share and give to you as share or cash. So I guess it doesnt matter if I sell early.
I think I did. When I sold all my etf after it went thru. I had to sell some more, i think it was the dividend stock
If the ex-div day is today- you are not getting the dividend this time.
