The Bank of Montreal (BMO) has garnered mixed reviews from analysts, highlighting both positive and negative aspects of its performance. Several experts emphasize the bank's strong fundamentals, including stable dividends and robust growth in asset management, amid favorable conditions in the Canadian banking sector. The bank's technical health is acknowledged, with some suggesting it is a good long-term investment, especially for those with a 3-5 year outlook. However, concerns about potential credit issues, particularly in the U.S. and rising inflation, create a more cautious sentiment. Overall, while there are diversifying opportunities elsewhere, the general view reflects confidence in BMO's stability and long-term prospects, despite its current high valuation compared to peers.

Expect banks will be a good sector in spite of possible rise in interest rates. Buy on weakness. CIBC, Royal and TD are his best picks. BMO is his least favourite, but at a reasonable value now.

BUY

Expects the banks to have a 15/20% growth rate over the next couple of years. Good ROE.

Looks good, but banks are always influenced by the short term rates which are "artificially" low (government established) at this time. Caution.
