What is XA in share market?

In the share market, XA typically refers to "ex-all," which indicates that a stock is trading without its rights to dividends or other benefits that would have been available to shareholders if they owned the stock before a specified date. This term is often used in the context of dividend payments, where the stock price adjusts downward on the ex-dividend date to reflect the payout. Investors should be aware of this when buying shares, as it may affect the stock's price and their potential returns.
