What should you follow in the market today?

Technical analysis can be applied after a newly listed IPO begins trading and real price and volume data become available. However, RSI, MACD, moving averages, support and resistance, volatility measures and technical scores may be limited or misleading during the first sessions because the trading history is short. Investors should evaluate price discovery, volume, liquidity, free float, the prospectus, valuation reports and risk management together.

Dividend yield shows the dividend per share relative to the market price, while the dividend payout ratio shows how much of a company's profit is distributed to shareholders. The dividend rate shown on Türkiye's Public Disclosure Platform (KAP) is a separate percentage generally calculated against a nominal value of TRY 1. This guide explains the differences between dividend yield, payout ratio and the KAP dividend rate with formulas and examples.

The dividend payment date is the date when a company actually pays the approved dividend to eligible shareholders. It is different from the ex-dividend date, record date and declaration date. Investors should understand the full dividend timeline to know who is entitled to receive the dividend and when the payment is expected to reach their account.
