This summary was created by AI, based on 5 opinions in the last 12 months.

Experts generally view HSBC Holdings P L C positively, citing strong financial metrics such as net interest margins, efficiency ratios, capital ratios, ROA, and loan-to-deposit ratios that have performed better than expected. The bank has also effectively cleaned up its balance sheet, presenting no immediate reason for selling unless market conditions change. While some experts suggest taking profits, the majority see little risk in holding on to the stock, especially given the bank's focus on emerging markets. Comparatively, valuations of European banks like HSBC are regarded as more attractive than North American counterparts, which indicates an optimistic outlook if interest rates stabilize or rise.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 9/10. Up 6%.) Looking at selling their credit card business and getting back to their knitting. 3.8% dividend.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 9/10. Up 12.4%.) UK bank with a great Asian exposure as well as a big Latin America operation. Doing a major restructuring. 3.5% yield.
TOP PICK
World’s largest bank and is in 140 countries. Great yield of about 4%. Good security. Growth in all the right areas. Moved their headquarters to Hong Kong where the growth in capital is enormous. Well positioned to capitalize on world’s growth expansion.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Oct 9/09, Down 5.2%) Wants to buy more of HSBC.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Great global franchise in banking. Very good company and well run.
TOP PICK
The international bank that has done everything right. First bank to recognize their subprime problems and wrote them off. Cut dividends but only by 30%. Raised $20 billion US without government help because it has emerging market exposure. Cautious and conservative. 3.4% yield.
DON'T BUY
Purist global bank you will find. Closing some US branches, focused in Europe, strong presence in the Middle East and a very strong presence in Asia. Almost too diversified. Still not 100% sold on increasing weightings in banks.
TOP PICK
The #1 or #2 bank in China. Just moved their executive CEO from London to China. He is looking for a great explosion of growth in Asia. 2.8% yield.
HOLD
Bonds October 2011. Has been in the press lately regarding some of their assets and loans. Think they will make it through. The bonds are very solid investment grade.
HOLD
If you want something with Asian components but much better credit quality in the banking system, he would choose Standard Chartered Bank (STAN-LSE) on the London exchange. (Also listed in New York but he prefers British £, which is down 50% against US$ and 25% against the Cdn$.)
COMMENT
Financials in the US do not look great right now. Downward trend is very well defined. Still a lot of selling that could go on. A lot of volume at this level so technically he could see a possible bounce to $33.
BUY
HSBC (HBC-N) vs. Royal Bank (RY-T). Fantastic banks. Will be a survivor. Would lean more towards the Canadian banks because he knows them better.
COMMENT
Last 3 or 4 trading days have shown the stock starting to bottom. This is not unusual and has happened with a lot of the international banks. Short-term momentum indicators are not there yet. Feels that banks in general will start to move higher.
COMMENT
Well run bank and well diversified. Having some problems right now like many of the banks.
WEAK BUY
Two global banks that have a really good global foot print, are City and HBC, he would choose HBC over City. On a long term view, it's a pretty good bank to own.
