Imagine how much time would be saved if every company reported their results on the same day and every company had an Ex-Div date exactly 6 weeks after the start of the quarter. Wouldn't that be a lot easier than constantly looking through your portfolio to determine what exactly is the Ex-Div date so you can still be guaranteed the div, or when you are doing research and you run into the inevitable phraseology that "XYZ Corp.'s fiscal year starts in March blah blah blah" and it would just be easier if EVERY company just said, "Look, from now on, EVERY fiscal year begins on January one".
And another thing. In order to be able to go thru all the data since there would be an onslaught of quarterly reports all available on the same day under my scenario, we would eliminate 4 holidays and shift them to the day AFTER the quarterly reports in order to give everyone an entire day to peruse those reports.
Reasoning: The Federal Gov't has entirely too many holidays anyway (Presidents Day, Columbus Day) and so just shift 4 of them to the aforementioned day-after-quarterly-reporting. and call them DAQR Holidays (pronounced DACK 'er).
Ring ring. Hello? Hey, whatcha doin? Getting Dackered; you? Umma gonna dacker later, lets do lunch.
