This summary was created by AI, based on 38 opinions in the last 12 months.

Citigroup Inc. (C) is experiencing a notable turnaround under its new CEO, who has implemented effective cost-cutting measures and strategic rationalization of the bank. Analysts highlight that the bank recently reported impressive earnings growth, with a 56% increase in its latest quarter, marking some of its best performance in decades. Despite this resurgence, experts express concerns that Citigroup's valuation remains slightly rich in relation to its growth potential. The company's performance is compared favorably to its peers, although it is often noted as undervalued compared to competitors like JPMorgan Chase (JPM). With a solid progression towards profitability, a strong dividend yield, and a positive outlook driven by ongoing strategic improvements, many analysts remain bullish on Citigroup while acknowledging macroeconomic uncertainties affecting the broader banking sector.

DON'T BUY
Bank of America (BAC-N) and Citibank (C-N) have become trading vehicles. Enormous volatility/volume on a daily basis. Not many “investors” buying these stocks and won't buy until they understand what the implications are of the bailout and how toxic assets are going to be valued.
DON'T BUY
Dividend cuts have happened twice already, which shows that management really doesn't know what the disease is within the firm. Would avoid US banks entirely until there is some visibility.
COMMENT
Thinks a lot the risk is out of these bonds now that the Federal Deposit Corp is allowing them to borrow under the guaranteed program but he would favour Wells Fargo (WFC-N) more.
SELL
He is looking for an exit on this stock. Not enough visibility.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 20/07. Down 73%.) Sold in April. If you own, continue to hold.
SELL
(Market Call Minute.) There is still an enormous amount of risk on the balance sheet.
HOLD
There are some positive things going on with this company. New capital injection today doesn't hurt.
COMMENT
A lot of headline risks. Stock could be cheaper over the next 2 months. If you own, you could Sell and then buy it back later but you could miss the risk of a turnaround.
COMMENT
One analyst says you shouldn’t be buying the market until you see the US banks starting to out perform on either an aggregate or relative basis. A negative has cropped up in that Paulson has pulled the banks that in order to get some federal help they will have to cut dividends, etc. If you own it, you could Hold.
DON'T BUY
Technically it is not bad as it has broken its long-term trend line and will probably bottom out sideways.US Financials: From a seasonal perspective they tend to go up halfway through December into the beginning of May because their year-end is the beginning of the calendar year and they tend to get rid of bad news and give a really positive forward look. This time, the banks haven't had much good news. Wouldn't go into this sector at this point.
HOLD
Big financial services stocks that have made it through this far are going to make it through. They are in a very enviable position strategically.
RISKY
Doesn’t think they will go to zero. They have a better source of finding that others, but not a stock for the faint of heart.
DON'T BUY
We need to look at what are the best in class banks that will service. He prefers Bank of America, as it makes a much more compelling validation.
SELL
(Market Call Minute.) With the 4 massive failures, he would stay away.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Feels that under new management it will come back quite strongly.
