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.

BUY
Banks are a core holding. Will have a better credit picture next year. Earnings are growing.
DON'T BUY
Least favourite in the banks.
TOP PICK
All the banks have good value and growth.
DON'T BUY
Doesn't see a lot more upside in the banks.
BUY
Expects all the banks to see some big earning surprises. Rising interest rates won't be a problem.
TOP PICK
Has all banks as a top pick. Expects them to continue to grow to the end of the year.
DON'T BUY
Most inefficient of all the banks. Prefers TD.
WEAK BUY
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.
DON'T BUY
Looks good, but banks are always influenced by the short term rates which are "artificially" low (government established) at this time. Caution.
TOP PICK
Likes all the banks. This one has lagged the other banks. Is expecting them to make some good moves.
TOP PICK
An out of favour stock. Has room for improvement. Good dividend. Takeover target.
BUY
Long term quality.
DON'T BUY
Lack of growth potential.
BUY
Prefers National Bank, but thinks this can do well.
