Bank of America (BAC) continues to position itself favorably within the banking sector, driven by deregulation and solid performance indicators. Experts have pointed out its impressive profit growth of 17% in the last quarter, indicating strong operational efficiency and guidance for continued upside potential. The bank benefits from improving net interest margins, a strengthening economy, and a favorable yield curve, despite facing some concerns regarding private debt and market fluctuations. With analysts projecting valuations that suggest potential upside, it remains a recommended buy on dips, particularly due to its diverse business model and robust consumer banking performance.

Citi, C

BUY

US banks are still correcting, not bouncing back as much as the market. BAC has announced a strong stock buyback program. You need to buy JPM as well as BAC and Citigroup. He's looking to buy this. The street is puzzled with this sector isn't doing better. There's a lot of pent-up upside in these names. Interest rates could be a catalyst.

BUY

Lots of upside in BAC and he expects this to return to $35. He likes it now.

BUY

BAC vs. Wells Fargo Both are well-run, with BAC trading at a slightly lower multiple, so he favours BAC. Also, Wells has a scandal to still deal with it and management issues, which is why he's stayed away from it. A rising yield curve boosts all the US banks, so that's's now a headwind as rate increases slow down. Both benefit from a strong US economy.

HOLD

They move with the market, and he thinks the Dow is toppy now. No reason to sell North American banks. The only reason to sell it now is to buy it back cheaper later.

BUY

JPM is the best of the pacl, while BAC is more a value play. He owns JP Morgan instead, run by a super CEO. Any portfolio should own one US bank. You can't go wrong with BAC. It's undervalued now.

COMMENT

He owns three US banks and one Canadian. He owns WFC-N instead of BAC-N, when it the market became worried about management changes there that created an oversold situation. BAC-N is a fine one as well.

TOP PICK

12% EPS growth. 9x earnings. 1x price-to-book. Return on tangible common equity is 16%. He feels there's more to follow as they gain market share. (Analysts’ price target is $32.63)

DON'T BUY

Bank of America vs Citigroup. There's some good opportunities but maybe not something you want to invest in right now. Deposits competition is heating up. Net interest margin moving the wrong way. Deposits costs are higher. Credit isn't terrible right now. Not that the banks are a terrible spot, you're probably going to do fine. Dividends are totally safe. But is this really going to get you a great return right now? Better places to be, and probably better countries.

SELL ON STRENGTH

For a trade for a couple of months you would be okay. We need this end of cycle to happen before the recession. He is looking to sell into strength.

DON'T BUY

BNS-T vs. BAC-N. He owns the Canadian banks. Most of the US banks have been bankrupt in his career. Canadian banks are better regulated. You might make more money in the US within a couple of years but not after 5 years.

BUY

Absolutely likes US banks. Thinks you can own both Canadian and US banks. JP Morgan has held up better than Goldman, though his clients own both. He'd absolutely buy BAC or JP Morgan, because recession fears are overblown, interest rates will go up slowly in US and this will benefit the banks. Valuations are quite attractive, balance sheets are better.

COMMENT

BAC or JPM? He owns JP Morgan, but likes BAC as well. Overall, JP Morgan has been a premium bank in the US since the recession. The US banks are trading extremely cheap -- he likes both.

BUY

Good buying opportunity from a short-term perspective. Has a bottom, with an emotional drop down to $22 level. Nice little rebound today, along with the rest of the market. Would expect it to do well. If it can get above $26, looks much more attractive for mid-term. Have to be aware that we've seen big days like this in the past followed by bigger drops. $24 is a good exit point for short-term traders.

BUY

He's long owned BAC. The entire growth has pulled back, because of interest rates not rising as much as expected. BAC is in good shape. If the US economy does well, this will do well. Likely dividend increases.

TOP PICK

He's bullish US banks. Sept. 30 earnings were $7.2 billion, enough to double their dividend without making much impact on their balance sheet. They're putting up incredible earnings despite a rising yield curve enviroment. And there have been two rate hikes since Sept. 30. He bought it cheap at $12. (Analysts’ price target is $33.80)
