For dividend of the week I am going to use CountdownMax  to have a look at what is going ex-dividend in the coming weeks and try to pick out some value. Almost half of the FTSE 100 has declared their dividends and go ex in the next couple of months, so there are a lot of guaranteed income opportunities out there.

Over the year to 31st January 2013, the Company delivered a positive share price return of 29.0%. Although the Managers marginally underperformed the Company's benchmark with a return of 26.6%, against 27.2% for the benchmark, this was more than made up for by a narrowing of the discount.

Simon Thomson, Chief Executive, Cairn Energy PLC said:
DividendMax Limited
This week we are going to look at global mining. A bombed out sector and we know that means potential capital gain on top of our income. There is a total of 19 pure mining stocks in DividendMax and I have to say the overall yield situation does not set the world alight! We can immediately dispose of 4 stocks without bothering with investigation. At DividendMax we see the ability to pay dividends as a measure of the strength of the company and with a few exceptions (such as Apple, generally we are correct. So, out go Lonmin, New World resources, Randgold and Hochschild mining without consideration. The DividendMax Optimizer criteria for eliminating those stocks was that the yield has to be above 2%.
