A number of popular ASX 200 shares are falling today despite no news coming from the companies.
As we move through the month of June, we’ll see a number of ASX shares trading ex-dividend.
The ex-dividend date is when investors must have purchased a company’s shares beforehand to be eligible for its upcoming dividend. If an investor buys the shares on or after this date, the dividend will go to the seller.
Below, we take a look at the list of shares that are trading ex-dividend today.

The fertiliser and commercial explosives manufacturer recorded a robust half-year result last month.
