Bank OZK's ex-dividend date fell on October 13, so investors who held shares through that date collect the payment going out on October 20. The total payout comes to roughly $53.4 million, the largest single distribution among today's dividend payers.
Elbit Systems is the second-largest payer in today's group, distributing about $46.9 million later in the month. Investors who missed the ex-date for either company must now wait for the next dividend cycle to participate.

For income-oriented investors, today's ex-date is the practical deadline that determines who collects and who waits. With $53.4 million flowing from Bank OZK alone, the day serves as a concrete reminder of how dividend calendars drive short-term positioning decisions.
