Passive income and dividend investors might be interested to know that there are some ex-dividend dates coming up.

We thought it would be a good idea to aggregate these dates from some of the more popular indices so it is all in one easy to reference place.

There are a couple of ex-dividend dates coming up before the end of this month. Below I’m providing the ex-dividend dates from the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, and a couple of other popular indices.

In the future I will try to add additional indexes.  If there are any other indices you would like me to consider adding in the future, post a comment!  Happy passive income investing.
