The Bank of Montreal (BMO) has received mixed reviews from various experts in the financial sector. While several analysts express confidence in the bank's solid dividend history and robust performance across its diverse business lines, concerns have been raised regarding a potential market correction and the bank's valuation relative to its peers. Some analysts highlight the bank's strong U.S. operations and commend its ability to navigate challenges in the credit cycle.

RY
HOLD
Still a bit of upside in banks
HOLD
Hold at least until a first merger is announced.
BUY
Moving well because investors think it will be the first to go.
TOP PICK
All banks are well run/profitable Multiples 10, 12, 15 X earnings. BMO the most likely to be taken over.
BUY
Let them go after a 10/15% increase. In a recession, banks will be hit.
BUY
Better to buy the target bank, BMO rather than the acquirer
DON'T BUY
Getting near their 1998 highs. Prefers Royal #1 CIBC #2
BUY
Likes

Likes banks. Preferences are BNS, Royal, TD & CIBC. Lower interest rate is a plus. Would buy other banks rather than BMO

Fully valued. Expects a slight increase, but not much
DON'T BUY
Banks are near their top. Don't expect a jump in the event of mergers.
BUY
Good dividend. Are credit quality concerns in a slowdown are already built in.

Split their stock today. Expect a bounce. A favourite, but prefers TD
BUY
Rumours of selling off Nesbitt which would be good.

(Was a top pick on Oct 2/00. Up 16.5%.) Trading at 12 X earnings. Looking for a dividend increase.
