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.

BUY

Banks have had a big move, so you could play the life insurance companies at this time.

TOP PICK

About 20-25% Canadian, 55-60% US and the rest in the far east. 70% of this business is wealth management. They are good with acquisitions. Good price for a 3-5-year hold.

BUY

The best run life insurance company in North America. They have the best management and the best balance sheet. Likes their growth prospects in the far east.

BUY

Expect you will get 15% a year plus a dividend. The engine of growth will be Asia.

BUY

Has done a great job. Good expansion in Asia.

TOP PICK

It has been dead money, but is settling in. Prefers MFC for longer term. It's better quality, managment is key. Likes the Asian exposure, it is a core holding for her. ( This is a past pick as well)

PAST TOP PICK

Went up a penny since June. Still likes it. He sold it due to a rumour, but is thinking of buying it again.

BUY

Financial stocks are trying to rally. This one had an uptrend which was violated but this was followed by an elevated base. There should be another leg to the upside. Probably a good entry point.

BUY

Trades at 17 X P/E. has a premium valuation because it is the premier life insurance company in North America. Great assets and the best management. Great growth opportunities in the far east.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July4/06. Up 12.8%.) Still likes, but wouldn't buy at this time, treat it as a hold.

HOLD

Likes this from a longer-term perspective. A very broadly diversified business model. Have a very strong franchise in Asia. A buy at $33/34.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 11/05. Up 21%.) Absolutely wonderful company and very impressive management. John Hancock was a good acquisition.

BUY

Probably the #1 premier life insurer in North America. Very well managed and has great assets. Stock has been consolidating over the last 5/6 months. Barring significant market weakness, this is going to be a strong performer. Even if you do get into a tougher market, this is a stock that should hang in quite well.

HOLD

Interesting here. A great company. Have done a tremendous job. Probably the most expensive diversified financial in North America.
