Valuation

BUY

In a good up trend line. If it should drop below $33/34, the stock starts to fall below its 200 day moving average and you should get out.

HOLD

At a point in the trading cycle where banks are a little more out of favor than insurance companies.

BUY

One of their favorite banks. Has a great future and probably will be merged with another bank.

BUY

Likes the banks. Banks have had a big run. Keeping an eye out on the interest rates.

Positive on the banks.

BUY

Have done a tremendous job. Have an attractive and growing international franchise. Dividend. Also good on the retail side.

BUY

Banks are not cheap any more but still expects to see 10% upside from here to the end of the year. Low risk.

Reasonably valued. Profitable. Should continue to see earnings and dividend growth.

An excellent bank. Well run on the retail side. Likes their international dimension.

Has shown an ability to generate capital and pay down debt and buyback stock. Like their international growth strategy. Dividend payments are increasing.

Performing very well. Good dividend. Expect Banks to trade higher.

BUY

Reported very good fourth-quarter profits. There will be a stock split. Doesn't see a tremendous upside move in the next month. Will continue to move as long as rates stay low.

BUY

It continues to lead the sector. They're doing very well with their growth in Canada and internationally. They are underweight financials as they prefer commodities at this point.

TOP PICK

Price motivated. Might get to mid $70's, with dividend you get 13-15%. Would be great value with alittle pull back. Low risk.
