Question 1

When is the next VALE ex-dividend date?

Accepted Answer

The next VALE ex-dividend date on record is Dec 12, 2025. To receive the dividend you must own VALE shares before this date.

Question 2

What is an ex-dividend date?

Accepted Answer

The ex-dividend date is the cut-off for owning a stock in time to receive its next dividend. If you buy VALE on or after the ex-dividend date, the seller — not you — receives the upcoming payment. Buy before it and you're entitled to the dividend.

Question 3

Do I have to own VALE on the ex-dividend date to get the dividend?

Accepted Answer

You must own VALE before the ex-dividend date — i.e. buy at least one trading day earlier. Since the move to T+1 settlement, the record date and ex-dividend date now fall on the same day, so the ex-date is the deadline that matters.

Question 4

How much is the VALE dividend?

Accepted Answer

VALE's most recent dividend was $0.6680 per share, paid on a quarterly basis — about $1.26 per share annually, a forward yield of roughly 7.98%.
