DON'T BUY
If they can pay TARP back and get going again there could be tremendous moves as money starts moving back in. Once the balance sheet is cleaned up they have tremendous ability to make money. Prefers emerging-market banks instead because there are too many skeletons in the closet.
DON'T BUY
An aggressive play. If you are really bullish on the markets and financials in general, this could give your best return but is subject to large dilution. More difficult turnaround for this one. Has a higher cost structure embedded in it.
DON'T BUY
Would not want to own this one at this point. Expected to make $.10 next year. Trading at 34.5X PE, which is too rich.
DON'T BUY
City holdings has a significant asset portfolio which is unknown. Gov’t still owns 1/3’rd and will decrease it. It has strong earnings power. Once you remove the overhang, it has potential to move in the right direction, but he wants more cash flow and more predictability in the assets.
DON'T BUY
There are rumours out that they will be raising another huge whack of equity to pay off their 8% preferreds that they owe the US government. This will create dilution of anywhere from 10% to 20%. Too speculative.
SELL
(Market Call Minute.) There are better alternatives.
HOLD
Stock was hit and finished with a low and right now it is in kind of a semi-positive manner and on a 4-5 month Hold it could see $6-$7 but you should have a stoploss near $3.50.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) One of the US companies that has too much TARP exposure and can't attract good management because of executive pay constraints.
BUY
Like buying a warrant under US banking system. At this price, you could put some mad money in. US government has set the table for US banks and it couldn't be better. The interest they are paying is practically zero so they are getting big spreads and earning lots of money. A good gamble.
BUY
(Market Call Minute) But very, very risky.
DON'T BUY
If you want exposure to US financials, there are better choices. Government still owns 34% so it is restricted in terms of what it can do in compensations, dividends and stock buybacks. There is still weakness and consumers so they are hurting on the credit side.
SELL
Has a lot of problems. A government owned bank now. There are a lot of moving parts in this company and it is hard to get them all moving in the right direction.
DON'T BUY
Haven’t paid back any of their TARP money. Growth will be muted, then have to raise more equity. Would prefer a derivative like an ETF. Would prefer Bank of America for a levered US bank.
DON'T BUY
It looks as though most of the US banks are ready to break out of their funk. What you don't know is what is lurking in the weeds on the balance sheet.
DON'T BUY
He prefers Goldman Sachs (GS-N) in the US financials. Also, JP Morgan (JPM-N) might be better. This one is trading just above its 50 day and 200 day moving average so the technicals look interesting but it is trading at a 42X forward earnings, which is pretty rich.
