What's the reason that some big guys sold shares right before ex-div date ? Do they try to get DRIP shares at lower price or what(basically get more shares as dividend) ? The strange thing, today is the ex-div date, why it's going up ? Does that mean PWE purchase shares from the open market for the DRIP shares ? This is something that I do not understand. or do they try to shake out weak hands to scare them that the big drop would happen after ex-div date ?

It is weird but it happened before. The DRIP is to issue more stock rather than buy back. Today's closing can in fact influence the DRIP price, but I doubt that is the reason.
