WAIT

Probably fully priced here and would let it consolidate. Good solid company. Expecting a market correction in the next 2 to 3 months.

BUY

Favourite life insurance company in North America. Best prospects to grow. Expect them to make a major acquisition in the US to further their growth. The big kicker is their far east operations.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 4/06. Up 6.8%.) A bit disappointed that they have lagged the financial group. A great company. Earnings next year will probably be double the growth rate of the banks. Management is superb. Well diversified globally.

DON'T BUY

Broadly speaking, the financial area is extended and this is one that is more extended. It would be nice if they came up with another great idea, which would move it a bit.

BUY

Has some good growth prospects. Have made some astute acquisitions. Good dividend and solid earnings. 2% dividend.

BUY

Has had a good pop because of the move of money out of income trusts. Growing rapidly in Asia.

BUY

A good, solid company. Have done some great acquisitions. Not a bargain at these prices, but if you are looking for a solid financial company, well-run, global outlook this would be a good one.

HOLD

Selling pretty close to its all time high price. Extremely well managed. Continue to surprise with their earnings growth. Good investment over the long term.

BUY

Good growth rate. To have an insurance company along with a bank is good diversification and helps offset any commodity risk in your portfolio.

BUY

One of his favourite Canadian companies. A real international player.

TOP PICK

Spectacular company. Great management. Likes their Asian exposure. Recent numbers show 20% ROE and 16 X earnings. Increasing their share buyback.

BUY

His favourite life insurance Company and North America. The best run company. As great growth potential in the US. Thinks they are poised to make another major acquisition. The real kicker is they're far east operations. Lots of upside.

BUY

Getting long-term growth from their John Hancock holdings in the US as well as Asia. Excellent management. 1.3% yield.

HOLD

A solid, blue-chip and blue chips are in favour now. The best Canadian group in terms of acquisition and probably lined up to do another. Good operations in Asia.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Seasonal pattern for the financial sector is from the end of September to the end of May. Technically, the stock is getting into gear. Right now, the stock is a little bit overbought.
