Apparently Alerian likes to keep their future ETF ex-dividend and distribution dates a secret.
As a result, the dates below are just guesses, based on this and previous year’s ex-dividend and distribution dates. For historic ex-dividend, pay dates, and dividend amounts see this Alerian link for getting the confirmed dates and amounts.
2014 Estimated Alerian AMLP ETF Quarterly Ex-dividend & Distributions Dates:
| 2014 Ex-Dividend Dates | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 | Q2 | Q3 | Q4 | |
| 6-Feb-14 | 6-May-14 | 6-Aug-14 | 6-Nov-14 | |
| Pay / Distribution Dates | ||||
| 13-Feb-14 | 13-May-14 | 13-Aug-14 | 13-Nov-14 | |

Notes: Previously ex-dividend was on the 7th unless not a business day, then the previous business day before that. In 2014 started on 6th, so I am assuming the 6th will be used. The distribution date is 7 calendar days after the ex-day, unless not a business day, then use the next business day after that.
