This summary was created by AI, based on 25 opinions in the last 12 months.

Bank of America (BAC) has seen strong performance recently, reporting a significant 17% increase in profits, marking its best earnings per share (EPS) in nearly two decades. Experts express optimism around BAC's potential for growth with expectations of continued net interest income increases driven by favorable economic conditions, including deregulation and a steep yield curve. Several analysts believe BAC is underappreciated, trading at a discount compared to competitors like JPMorgan, and exhibiting a favorable valuation. Concerns do exist about the broader banking sector's performance, particularly with the impact of interest rates and an evolving economy, but BAC remains a favored choice among analysts for investors looking for a stable banking franchise with good recovery potential after taking a slight hit in recent trading sessions.

Citi,C

DON'T BUY

Warren Buffet loaned them money and if the stock bounced up it is a bonus for him. Messed up with Merrill Lynch acquisition for them and it cost them market share. There are better situations to buy. Why take the risk.

DON'T BUY

Some major US investors have invested heavily and are saying this bank is OK. Too big to fail. Question is, what dilution will a minority shareholder get if they need to inject more capital. You are better off with a Canadian bank.

BUY

Views it as an investment rather than a trade. Cheap valuation. $12.50 book vs. $8 price. They learned from 2008. Say they are well capitalized. Gave market confidence that they would act with Warren Buffet and selling a Chinese asset, when they didn’t really need the cash. He likes it based on the reputational support Mr. Buffet gave the bank.

DON'T BUY

Doesn’t fit the way he looks at US banking. So many question marks with respect to Country Wide. Not a good risk reward.

SELL

Has no idea what is going on inside of this one. No knows what their assets are worth. There are a lot of opinions but no one knows. If it went to fail and was bailed out, he believes there would be nothing left for shareholders.

DON'T BUY

Very volatile. Doing their very best to prop up the balance sheet. Just sold their credit card business to Toronto Dominion (TD-T) and will exit its credit card businesses in the UK and Ireland. US banks are still at the whim of what is going on in Europe.

DON'T BUY

Wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole. He is seriously concerned about their future obligations on their balance sheet. This is directly related to the housing market in the US.

TOP PICK

Believes you either price that for bankruptcy or for the next cycle and is probably worth $25. He believes the housing market is stabilizing. 5 of their 6 businesses are making money. Trades at half its BV. Doesn't have that much fear of the current lawsuits.

DON'T BUY

Recent lawsuit is just one is a series that they are or are going to be involved in. Financial services in the states are a tough, tough business. Wouldn’t get involved. The government is just going after them through regulation.

BUY

With the value of the current Cdn$, this is probably a pretty good entry point. This is a good holding for part of your portfolio is a long-term, let it develop, hold.

DON'T BUY

Still trying to fix themselves and have a large exposure to the US housing market. There are better companies to own.

DON'T BUY

Difficult to call the bottom on the US banking sector. If the economy recovers and to be no more loans, they will do better. Doesn't think US banking will be the next leading sector however you probably have a reasonable return.

WEAK BUY

His model price is $17.65, a 65% upside. He owns a very small position in his US fund. His system is screaming that it's balance sheet is impaired. If you are a speculative investor, you could take a small position. They are the key to the job growth going forward. Need to lend again and get back into business.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 26/10.Down 22.29%.) This is a very Strong Screaming Buy in that you have to hold it for 3 or 4 years. Largest mortgagee in the US and housing is starting to stabilize.

COMMENT

(Caller would like to write covered calls.) Covered call writing success is largely tied to levels of volatility and this strategy is not as successful as it was years ago.
