SENTIMENT INDICATORS: USING IG CLIENT SENTIMENT

Current market turmoil still ongoing - as predicted YEARS ago by community member @THT. Here's a Gann Special for you, that @THT posted a few months ago on their blog.

Please see the expected dividend adjustment figures for a number of our major indices for the week commencing 16th May 2022. These are projected dividends and likely to change. IG cannot be held responsible for any changes made.
Dividends highlighted in red include a special dividend, therefore some or all of the amount will not be adjusted. Amount in brackets is the expected adjustment after special dividends excluded (where shown on major indices). Dividend adjustments due to be posted on a bank holiday will usually be posted on the previous working day. 

If you have any queries or questions on this please let us know in the comments section below. For further information regarding dividend adjustments, and how they affect  your positions, please take a look at the video.


NB: All dividend adjustments are forecasts and therefore speculative.<br style="color:#353c41; font-size:14px; text-align:center">A dividend adjustment is a cash neutral adjustment on your account.
