This summary was created by AI, based on 17 opinions in the last 12 months.

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CM) has received mixed but generally positive reviews from experts. The bank is well-positioned to benefit from advancements in AI and a supportive regulatory environment, which allows for increased lending capacity. Its recent earnings showed a significant rise in net income, notably due to strong performance in the U.S. market, while maintaining healthy profit margins and cash reserves. However, concerns about reliance on the Canadian consumer and potential economic headwinds persist. Despite these risks, many analysts regard CM as a solid investment with a potential for upside in stock value, given its favorable trading multiples and recent stock buyback strategies.

COMMENT
Has to live a little with its past history. One of the banks that has never got back to where it was before 2008. Has made a few mistakes in the US in the past. This one is in the lower tier of the big 5 banks. Have cleaned up their act and the stock is a lot better. Not his #1 choice.
BUY
Made interesting acquisition in the US and looks like an interesting, accretive one where they will invest capital – have a mutual fund business. Done a good job of diversifying. His concern is that if there is a mud-hole out there, they seem to fall into it. Likes the other banks better.
BUY
Has completed an A B C correction and the trend line is intact. Has a lot of volume. Thinks it goes higher.
HOLD
Don’t buy any more until the $72 area. Be patient. It has a 10% upside, but it is above its model price.
HOLD
When the market was hitting its low in 2009, all the bank stocks hit a low and started a new up leg. Then developed an upward trending channel. We are now 2 years into the bull market when banks some times start to slow down. Be aware that it s not going to have the same exciting move as it did moving from $37 to $70. Keep an eye on the 200 day moving average, which it is still above.
TOP PICK
Has the highest dividend and the cheapest valuation and banks do tend to revert to the mean, so that those that underperform, tend to pull up their socks. Looks very good on a technical basis. Over 4% yield.
WATCH
Banks have recovered nicely from the bottom and have good earnings visibility. This is the year when they will start increasing their dividends. This one is going through an internal transformation and is de-risking their business. Talking about expanding into global markets so watch to see how they do.
WAIT
Would like to see them get their act together a bit more. Get rid of some of the overhang questions that relate to write offs, etc.
COMMENT
Looking for a dividend increases in the 1st half of the year but is probably already largely built into the stock price. There could be a slight stock price increase when this happens.
BUY
Getting more positive on this bank. Banks will see slower growth in earnings. Of the Big 5, those with better domestic operations will do better and this is one of the best.
BUY
Cdn banks have lagged. Expects there will be increases in bank dividends but not until well into 2011, except for Toronto Dominion (TD-T), which will be the first to go. This one is fine but would not be her Top 2 banks. (See Top Picks.)
COMMENT
Within the Big 5, Toronto Dominion (TD-T) and CIBC (CM-T) are his favourites. This one has a very decent dividend. If you are looking for dividend growth, look at TD who will increase their dividends by about 8.5% per year over the next 3 years. CIBC is looking at about 3.7%.
COMMENT
Assessing risk management relative to other banks? Great question, particularly for this bank. Had a relatively poor showing last 10-15 years. Trades at a discount multiple because of this. Now an opportunity since they have now exited all those other riskier businesses.
DON'T BUY
Not crazy about banks from an earnings standpoint. Housing market is slowing down, which is a big part of their loan books. Doesn't expect unusual performance out of any of them. Least expensive bank so has the highest yield.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
It is the bank that everyone loves to hate. Made its share of tactical errors over time. Sell at somewhat of a discount to the group. Have more leverage in their earnings. Can earn $7.50 a share over the next couple of years. Thinks he will see more capital appreciation.
