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

Experts generally view the National Bank of Canada (NA) as a strong investment with a focus on growth, particularly in wealth management and capital markets. Several reviews highlight the positive impact of its acquisition of Canadian Western Bank (CWB), which broadens its national presence and improves cross-selling opportunities. There is confidence in double-digit earnings growth and the potential for solid annual returns, even as concerns about high valuations and economic risks, such as potential recessions or credit cycles, are noted. While the stock's valuation is perceived as rich, its ability to generate high recurring fees and its diversified national presence contribute to a favorable long-term outlook. Overall, experts believe NA is well-positioned to thrive in the current market environment.

Valuation

Fair Value

TD-T

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.

BUY

This falls under the interest sensitive sector and banks generally are the best performers. This is his favourite bank. Sells at a slight discount to the other banks. Recent numbers were good. Good strategy.
