RELX Stock Is Back in Focus as Buyback, Dividend Date and AI Legal Race Collide
RELX PLC’s American depositary shares ticked up on Monday, even as its main London line sat idle due to a UK bank holiday—pushing the LexisNexis parent into the spotlight during a week shortened by market closures and looming buyback and dividend deadlines. The ADRs showed $36.655 at 15:20 UTC, up $0.305 from Friday’s finish. London’s last quoted bid-ask, as of May 1, was 2,698p/2,701p. RELX ordinary shares hit their ex-dividend date on May 7, with the record date following on May 8. Anyone buying after the ex-dividend date won’t get the declared dividend. For ADRs, both the ex-dividend and record date land on May 8, according to the company calendar.
