May 2015: Rolling Dividend Update.

May brought a near avalanche of dividends with Verizon, BAT's, Banco Santander, Aviva, Apple, BG Group, and Barratt Developments all paying out and throwing cash at my portfolio (May 2015: Portfolio Update.).

In the meantime, BP, Microsoft, and Imperial Tobacco started to trade ex. dividend, adding to BAE, Centrica, and William Hill.

So that's currently 6 portfolio holdings trading with an ex. dividend reflected share price, and my portfolio having yet to receive it.

A hidden bit of value, albeit a small one.

	Dps	Ex Div.	Paid
GE	12.72p	19-Feb	27-Apr
BAT	100.60p	19-Mar	07-May
Aviva	12.25p	08-Apr	15-May
Verizon Comm.	30.79p	08-Apr	01-May
Banco Santander	8.74p	14-Apr	04-May
BAE	12.30p	16-Apr	01-Jun
Barratt Dev.	4.80p	23-Apr	22-May
Rolls-Royce	14.10p	23-Apr	01-Jul
BG Group Centrica	9.52p 8.40p	23-Apr 30-Apr	22-May 25-Jun
William Hill	8.20p	30-Apr	05-Jun
Apple	27.90p	07-May	14-May
BP	$0.10 est.	07-May	19-Jun
Microsoft	$0.31 est.	19-May	11-Jun
Imperial Tob.	21.40p	28-May	30-Jun
National Grid	28.16p	04-Jun	05-Aug
Vodafone SSE Imperial Tob.	7.62p 61.80p 21.40p	11-Jun 23-Jul 27-Aug	05-Aug 18-Sep 30-Sep

Looking ahead, I can see 2 more companies due to go ex. dividend in June, Vodafone and National Grid, the second a significant one in context of my portfolio as it is currently the largest actual payout among my holdings.

However, BAE, William Hill, Microsoft, BP, Centrica, and Imperial Tobacco, are due to make deposits into my account, which should reduce the in limbo companies yet to pay to just 2 by the end of June.

Interesting.
