This summary was created by AI, based on 16 opinions in the last 12 months.

The Bank of Montreal (BMO) has been reviewed positively by several experts, highlighting its stability and strong performance within the Canadian banking sector. While many respect its sound credit portfolio and consistent dividends, some experts note potential headwinds like inflation and a fragile economic landscape that might affect future growth. The bank maintains a favorable position but is seen as trading at a premium, suggesting caution for new investments. Overall, the consensus indicates that while BMO remains a solid choice for stability and dividend growth, there are indications of the stock being at a high valuation level. Diversifying into more defensive sectors may be advisable given the current market conditions.

Valuation

COMMENT

Thinks the new CEO will be doing a terrific job. They take him a little while to find his feet. They have the Harris Bank in Chicago, which is a very competitive area.

BUY

Has been controversial of late, because of problems in the Natural gas market. This is a one time problem, and it will pick up. He would buy at this level.

TOP PICK

Market is volatile, but is yielding at least 4%. If BMO comes around, then there will be gains, which may be 10 or 12%. Bought recently over the last 2 or 3 days.

WEAK BUY

He doesn't particularly like this sector but Bank of Montreal is his current favorite, since it was beaten up the other day on the commodity scandel. Gave a bit of a trading opportunity.

BUY

Felt the stock got hit a little bit too much on the downside. Felt their last numbers where little bit stronger than what had been targeted.

BUY

Had some trouble with commodity trading losses. This may hurt them for a little while, but should focus them more on how to grow earnings in other areas. The weakness is an opportunity for a long time hold.

COMMENT

Has taken a hit recently because of its energy trading division. Has been oversold. Yields about 3.9%. Need to see the new CEO start to put together new situations. Only a Buy for the yield.

BUY

A positive 15% differential.

BUY

Just had a $680 million loss. Not too happy with what has gone on. However, the reaction of investors can sometimes create opportunities. In the long run, what the bank does, day-to-day, hasn't changed. He is buying for new clients.

COMMENT

He never buys stocks over $25. Although this had a pullback, percentage wise it wasn't very much.

HOLD

Not their favourite bank, but is sure it will bounce back.

COMMENT

The banking sector has a bit of a problem at this stage, because if he is right and there is a bear market once we are finished this bull market, the banks could be causing the downleg.

WEAK BUY

Not much exposure to sub prime mortgages, but US mortgages have been tightened. US Harris Bank is only regional and had poor earnings last quarter. BMO has the lowest retail franchise in Canada. With dividend, you could see 10% return in the next year.

BUY

Has been a laggard. Historically, buying the laggard banks and holding them through the cycle is a good way to outperform.

BUY

3.9% yield which is higher than the other banks. Caller is using a DRIP on this one. His model price is $78.90, a 14% positive differential.
