This summary was created by AI, based on 18 opinions in the last 12 months.

The Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CM) has garnered a mix of sentiments from experts. Some analysts express optimism about the bank's strategic positioning within the Canadian economy, especially regarding infrastructure and energy development, resulting in a TARGET of $179 and a current dividend yield of 2.8%. However, there are cautionary notes about the bank's heavy reliance on the Canadian consumer market, particularly residential mortgages, which could pose a risk amid potential economic downturns. A number of experts have suggested that CM is well managed, with impressive metrics such as a 16% return on equity and growing cash reserves. Despite a strong past performance and positive momentum, there are concerns that the stock may be approaching overvaluation, hinting at a more careful approach in the near future, such as trailing up stop-loss orders and considering profit-taking. Overall, CM is seen as having good growth potential yet must navigate the uncertainties of the broader economic landscape.

COMMENT
CM-T vs. BNS-T. There is a divergence in the Canadian banks between revenues sources and price to earnings and dividend yield. CM-T is latest to get into the US and BNS-T was more focused on Latin America. These two are trading at the most attractive valuations. The lower valuation is justified. There is something to be said about the stability of the US revenues with other Canadian banks.
TOP PICK
The most "Canadian" of Canadian banks, the most exposed to Canada (and our mortgage market). It's selling at quite a discount. Pays a high, solid ROE and pays a 5% dividend, the most of the big banks. They disappointed in the current quarter, so it's a good time to buy it. (Analysts’ price target is $128.93)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 19/18, Down 3%) It has performed better than the TSX as a whole. It was one of the cheapest banks at the time. He thinks the Canadian banks are the best in the world, due to its stringent regulations.
WAIT
Good entry point or wait? Stock used to be at the bottom of the heap, and then they did some very good things and has come back. No problem with the dividend, the quarter was an anomaly. You might want to wait before putting money in. He has great faith in the Canadian banks and how they operate worldwide. Yield is 4.9%.
BUY
They reported overall pretty good earnings. You have to be patient they've only recently entered the U.S market and it's going to take time. TD has the first-mover advantage there and they have benefited more significantly from the U.S. Thinks now is a good buying opportunity as a long return play. Historically anytime the yields of the Canadian banks get in the high 4-5% it's always been a great buying opportunity. Current yield is pushing up against that 5% number.
DON'T BUY
Now should be a good time for Canadian banks; it's not happening which is a little worrying. Seasonally, CIBC does well in the first-half of a year, Jan. 14 - Apr. 14. It's enjoyed higher highs and lows in recent years. CIBC has come down during it seasonal strength (before earnings) and has resisted its 200-day moving avergage. This is concerning for the long term. He doesn't know if next week's earnings will be a catalyst.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
All Canadian banks have been on a rollercoaster this year. Earlier this year, he bought this and Royal. It's a decent buy at current levels, but the rollercoaster isn't settled yet. Buy this with a 6-12-month view. This offers a solid dividend.
DON'T BUY
Canadian banks haven't done well, but they're undervalued now. CIBC is more domestic than its peers, which is why she doesn't own it. The housing market and trade (less of a concern now) are overhangs, but they have been oversold.
BUY
A bunch of peaks and valleys, but the general chart trend is upward. It's good that each peak (and low) is higher than the last. Canadian banks are entering seasonality now. He favours BMO over CIBC though.
COMMENT
Still in a long term uptrend. The stock has gotten to a higher high but not to a lower low. He would eliminate his Canadian Bank position if it gets to a new high as a trade as he is getting less confident on Canadian Banks from a fundamental point of view.
BUY

His favourite is BMO-T. There is a nice little trend here in CM-T. This one and the group are back into favour. If it breaks, then it goes back to $110. Seasonality should kick in. Investors are probably worried about Canadian real estate but he thinks we will do fairly well.

BUY

It has had a nice run. They are newer to the US marketplace. There is still juice left from that acquisition, to materialize. He likes where they are and would be buying it here for the medium to long term.

HOLD

One of the higher dividend yields of the Canadian banks. He would be favoring Scotiabank, with the higher yield at the moment. It has US and domestic exposure and he thinks the dividend will continue to grow. He would continue to hold and collect the dividend. Yield 4.4%.

HOLD

His favourite bank is BMO. There's resistance at $120 now. Resistance happens in early-September and that'll likely happen this year too. Can't see the driver to move this forward. You won't suffer holding it. Also likes TD.

HOLD

They are big into mortgages. They have balanced their business and sees no hesitation in owing it. He owns other Canadian banks that have a better growth outlook.
