Q: I own well-in-the-money options of CPG that expire Jan'22. I plan to exercise them anyways before then; if I do it immediately will I be eligible for the increased dividend? If I do it this calendar year does this trigger a capital gain, or just need to track ACB?

Q: Hi team,
I am aware that you are quite upbeat about this company but am "confused " about the following areas in : Price to Comparisons,i.e.Price to Free cash at 6.30,Price to Cash flow at 3.60,but in the Valuation Ratios Book Value of equity per share at 0.44. How practical are these calculations for evaluating a company's prospects when making an investment decision? According to analysts the target price for GXE is 1.10 ,is this realistic?
Many thanks ,
Jean

Q: Hello 5i Team

I own Chevron and ExxonMobil in my US$ denominated RRSP. These are the only US$ oil and gas stocks in my RRSP account.

My US$ RRSP is structured as a large cap dividend aristocrat account.

My cost basis per share for CVX is US$115.00 and for XOM is US$80.00. Current yield on CVX is 5.6 % and on XOM is 6.4 %

As I cannot harvest capital losses in a RRSP account, is there any benefit in consolidating these two holdings into one stock? Which company has the better potential for growth long term (5 year or greater). Or should I do nothing and continue to receive dividends until the stocks return to their former highs?

Thanks
