NOTES:
Call it fate as this stock just broke its consolidation range on the day of its cash dividend declaration date (check the volume spike.)  Hopefully, it will move higher tomorrow and in the next coming days.

Dividend Capture Strategy

Declaration date: Jun 15, 2016
Ex-div date: Jul 12, 2016
Stock div: 50%
Cash div: Php0.20

Good thing that upon the declaration date the price was moving sideways near the support area.  You could have sold it on Jul 5, 2016 before it had a major price adjustment on the ex-div date.

So, if you invested Php100,000

Bought at closing price on declaration date: 21.05
Number of shares: 4,700
Sold before ex-div date on Jul 5, 2016: 24.30

No of trading days: 14

50% Stock dividend: 7,050 shares
Cash dividend less 10% withholding tax: Php846

Total cash profit: Php14,921.17


Strategy#2
Since you received 50% stock dividend, you could've reinvested your available cash on or after the ex-div date.

Total available cash: 114,921.17
No of shares: 7,000
50% stock dividend: 7,050 additional shares
Bought on ex-div date closing price: 16.18
Sold on closing price last Aug 5, 2015: 18.10
Gain: Php14,075.17 (14.18%)
