The mental picture of John Key pinning Chris Luxon to the wall whilst Bill English empties his pockets is an amusing one.

The share price following the Ex date is totally unpredictable especially with a stock like Air, but it's most likely to drop by more and possibly significantly more than the value of the divvy. Although my middle name is not 'Careful' as I currently hold 160k of these pups, I would suggest you head over to planet Spark and park your money there instead.
In theory it should initially drop by the exact amount but in reality it's unknowable, yep she's a great rollercoaster whether your taking a short or long flight, Spark was an example of a less volatile stock but hey climb aboard the Aircoaster if you can stomach a wild ride and don't mind being chased by red arrows.
