Ex Dividend Date

Industrea (IDL) is going XD today. And the share price went up 1% at the moment I wrote this.
The same thing happened to Oxiana few days ago, on the day it went XD, the price was going up. Usually, price of the stock will drop approximately by the amount of the dividend on the ex-dividend date. So I suppose it's nice, to get the dividend as well as the increase in price.
Does this mean anything at all?? I hope it's a good sign..
