This summary was created by AI, based on 15 opinions in the last 12 months.

The Bank of Montreal (BMO) has garnered mixed feedback from financial experts, reflecting a complex picture of its current performance and future outlook. Reviews praise its strong dividend history, diversified geographical presence, and stable asset growth, particularly in wealth management. Despite a favorable outlook for the Canadian banking sector characterized by a tightly regulated oligopoly, concerns about loan losses, especially in the U.S. market, linger. Some analysts are cautious, suggesting that while BMO may be a solid long-term hold, current market conditions warrant a more defensive investment strategy. Additionally, there's a sentiment of cautious optimism towards the potential for growth, but also a call for diversification amid current valuations deemed as premium rather than undervalued or a bargain.

Doesn't cover banks, but banks are making money.
DON'T BUY
DON'T BUY
Have managed the credit cycle extremely well over the last few years. Less upside in the near term.
DON'T BUY
Traded at a premium to its peers based on takeover speculation. Better banks are available.

Banks will have lower loan losses. Could move up when it looks politically expedient for bank mergers.
DON'T BUY
At its fair market value now.
DON'T BUY
Prefers BNS.
DON'T BUY
The yields on banks should reach 4/4.5% before they are a buy and the stock prices have to drop in order to rach this yield. They could also have another shoe to drop.
BUY
Prefers Royal and Bank of Montreal over CIBC.
WEAK BUY
Depends on economy.
DON'T BUY
On a hold getting ready to be taken over. Would prefer TD.

Too expensive now.

Limited growth. Would buy at $37.

At a good price. Possible takeover or merger.
