Today's ex-dividend date locks in Equinix holders for $5.16 per share, and missing the ex-date by a single day means missing that cash entirely.

The wave extends beyond Equinix, with Thomson Reuters, Verisign, Hasbro and BOK Financial all paying off the same ex-dividend date.

Income-focused portfolios can see meaningful cash flow from a handful of holdings in a very short window.

Verisign's August 27 payment is the nearest of these dates on the calendar.
