The Ex‐Dividend Day Behaviour of Australian Share Prices Pre and Post Imputation

Abstract

The corporate dividend decision has been of interest to researchers in finance for many years. Early theoretical and empirical work such as Graham and Dodd [1951], Lintner [1956], Miller and Modigliani [1961] and in part Ball and Brown [1968] concentrated upon the signalling properties of dividend announcements. As a result of this early work, a nexus between dividends and current or foreseeable corporate earnings was proposed.
