Gabelli Global Utility (GLU) has announced a monthly dividend of 10 cents per share. The stock will go ex-dividend on Monday, which will likely cause the stock price to open lower.
The announcement of a dividend typically leads to a short-term increase in stock price as investors buy in to qualify for the payout. However, once the stock goes ex-dividend, the price usually drops by roughly the amount of the dividend, as the company's assets have effectively decreased by the payout amount. In this case, GLU's stock price is expected to open lower on Monday, reflecting the 10 cents per share dividend.
