BUY
Report tomorrow. Are the cheapest bank. He is very comfortable with this one.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) One of the cheapest of the Canadian banks. Very well run.
BUY
Of all the banks, this is the best investment today.
BUY
What do you focus on when looking at a company? Has to like a sector and does like Cdn banking sector. Dividend yield is important. PE and ROE are important. Likes this one because of its protected market position inside Quebec. Wise traders and good wealth managers. There is room for dividend growth. Best earnings of any of the Cdn banks for 2009.
SELL
Canadian Imperial (CM-T) or National Bank (NA-T). Which would you sell? Would only own this when it is a big discount to the others. Prefers Toronto Dominion (TD-T)
BUY
On the relative valuation basis he can see more upside than in other banks.
DON'T BUY
A lot of the steam is out of the banks and can't see it improving for 2 years. Doesn't see a consist raise in dividends in this climate to make it as attractive as other stocks. For a long-term hold without exposure to foreign markets it is fine.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute) Favorite bank but banks are vulnerable for a correction.
BUY
Great bank and valuation is good. Quarter was a little lower than expected but not dramatically so. $.62 dividend.
BUY
This would be his #1 choice in Canadian banks. It is a dark horse. Doesn't have a lot of the problems. No exposure in the US. Good discount to the group. 3.9% yield.
TOP PICK
Has done the best of all Canadian banks since the bottom and has actually doubled. This is because it is Quebec, which has done the best of all the provinces. 3.9% yield.
TOP PICK
7.447% bond maturing June 30/20. A Tier 1 debt. Fairly high yield right now of over 6%.
COMMENT
This is about as high as it gets historically. Has only been above this peak once before. Expects a fair correction as he does with all the banks.
BUY
Favorite of the banks for the valuation, higher Canadian $ could be bit of a problem.
COMMENT
He expects they will have a dividend increase. Prefers Canadian Western (CWB-T) at this time.
