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.

Consensus

Cautious

Valuation

Overvalued

DON'T BUY

This sector does very well from the end of September to the end of December. This is one of the few that have not gone into all time highs recently.

BUY

Probably the lowest risk Canadian bank. Good yield. Good exposure in the US.

BUY

A solid blue chip with a good dividend.

BUY

In the long run the best investments in Canada have been bank stocks. If this is your only bank stock, then don't sell. This is a good name to be in.

BUY

Tends to lag the other banks. Whenever there's talk of mergers, this stock pops up a little bit and then goes back after the talks die down. Mid $50's is a place you can buy and then sell at $60 for a bit of a gain or hold for the long term as it will be a takeover eventually. 3.4% yield.

BUY

Banking sector would be his favourite for the long term. The historical 10 year return for the banking sector was 13%. Would love the entry point to be a little lower, but not a long term place to be.

BUY

Likes all the Canadian banks. They have reserves greater than all the loans they have potentially identified as being bad. Solid balance sheets. They all trade around 12 X earnings. Dividend yields from about 2.5% to 3.5%. Getting paid more than you would on a GIC.

TOP PICK

Two banks are clearly going to be takeover targets, one being the Commerce (CM-T) and this one. A little upset at the Commerce with their recent problems. Conservatively managed. They also have Harris Bank in the US which has been really successful.

BUY

(Owns his funds.) Likes the banking sector.

BUY

Over the last couple of years, his model price has constantly moved up with all the banks. Pretty well likes all the banks except for the Commerce (CM-T). There's a buying opportunity.

BUY

Financials have rallied because interest rates have stayed stable. The question is will bank stocks get cheaper when interst rates rise. Doesn't thinks so because they are still trading at reasonable valuations of 12/13 X earnings. You are still earning 3/4%.

BUY

One of the banks that will get picked off. A Buy along with the other banks.

BUY

Can't comment on this bank as they own his funds, The Guardian Group. Likes the banks as a group. Rates are going up, but not anywhere near where people anticipated. Credit experience of the banks is very good. You also get a high yield.

DON'T BUY

In the aggregate, banks have done very little this year. They are all trading at 55 year valuation highs. There's no fair market valuation support for them to go much higher.

BUY

Prefers Toronto Dominion (TD-T), National Bank (NA-T) or Bank of Montreal (BMO-T) over Royal Bank (RY-T) because there are wider differentials between the stock prices and his model prices.
