RE:RE:Why do a DRIP and NCIB at same time???LOL

It makes even more sense when you know this:

"Cenovus shares purchased with reinvested cash dividends are acquired in the open market."

makes perfect sense

- puts more shares in solid (long term) hands with no increase in overall share count (or even a decrease depending on the NCIB volumes realtive to DRIP volumes). )

-DRIP investors get dollar cost averaging, and compound the growth in their investment in the company

- DRIP investors pay no commission (though that is a moot point these days) and can add fractional shares.

- reduces cash payout for cash dividend. (of course more cash goes to buy-in)
