STRONG BUY

Likes this company, but for his funds, prefers Manufacturers or Sun Life as they are a bit more liquid for his needs. The Canada Life acquisition is working pretty well. Continues to increase their dividends. If you buy and put away for the next 3/5 years, you'll make a substantial amount of money.

BUY

A good, steady, major blue chip company.

BUY

Prefers over Sun Life. Greater growth potential.

BUY

The last few years, it has been a laggard. Good company. More compelling valuation than on Manufacturers Life.

BUY

20% ROE. Grows 13/15% a year. Its US insurance side is health which fell off a little with the Spitzer enquiry, but has recovered.

HOLD

If you are holding for 6/12 months, feels they will increase dividends.

DON'T BUY

Will achieve a high single digit return. Has considerable US holdings but were smart enough to hedge it. The hedge has only one more quarter and so the rate of earnings will be challenged. Outstanding management.

WEAK BUY

Prefers to own this through Power Financial.

TOP PICK

Has an ROE of over 20%. Trades at 12 X earnings. 3% yield.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Entry point would probably be under $50. Has been a great performer and has a good track record.

BUY

All three of the major life insurance companies in Canada have been going gangbusters. Had good results.

BUY

Prefers this and Sun Life Over Manufacturers Life.

DON'T BUY

Has a model price of $46.08 so overvalued. Prefers other financials.

BUY

Had trouble trying to break through the upper range until the latter part of 2003. Finally broke through and is now going through a minor correction, so a good opportunity to buy. Anywhere between current price and $45 is a good entry point.

BUY

A good company. Like most of the insurance companies right now.
