BUY
Has the most potential upside of the banks. He has a model price of $80.39. 25% positive differential.
BUY
Had a nice trend from about a year ago, with some consolidation Nov-Jan and again in Feb-March. Expect it will catch up to the other banks. As a Stop, use the 200 day moving average.
DON'T BUY
Not only running up against technical resistance, but also its FMV is not very far off the current price. Banks have the ability to almost get to their FMV, and then can’t go any higher.
BUY
The model price is $79.31, a 24% positive differential.
TOP PICK
Has lagged the other banks. Always trades at a slight discount but consistently has one of the highest returns on equity, best book value growth and best dividend growth. Yield is about 3.5%.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 7/06. Up 4.5%.) His model price is $78.49, a 22% positive differential. Would still buy.
BUY
The most undervalued bank with about a 20% positive differential.
TOP PICK
Market continues to valuate it at a discount to the other 5 major banks. High return on equity. Good growth prospects. Just raised their dividend again.
BUY
The Bank of Commerce (CM-T) and the National Bank (NA-T) both have some upside potential based on his fair market value calculation.
BUY
Solid and throws off a very good dividend.
BUY
Trades at a discount because it is viewed as a regional bank, but it consistently delivers the highest return on equity, the best dividend growth and trades at the lowest multiple.
DON'T BUY
This is the one bank with very weak profit fundamentals. Expecting they could disappoint on earnings when they report.
DON'T BUY
Given its exposure to the Québec economy and that Québec and Ontario manufacturing and forestry are facing difficulties, this might not be the best time to be in this.
BUY
Making good progress with their National Bank Financial. Doing extremely well and profitable. Good management.
DON'T BUY
Wouldn't put this one at the top of the list of the banks. On a valuation basis, it still looks cheaper, but not cheap enough.
