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.

Consensus

Buy

Valuation

Fair Value

Similar

TD-T

TOP PICK

Value is very hard to find in Canada. 3.5% dividend yield. Feels that as the US$ drops, assets are going to pour into Canada and bank stocks are were you should be.

BUY

In the history of the Cdn stock markets, banks have always been among the best performers, so you should always have some in your portfolio.

WAIT

Banks have had a wonderful run from the beginning of the bull market around Oct/02. In March/04, they took a breather and are now starting to move again. May just be going through a double top. If it hits $48, buy.

BUY

A favourite. Undervalued compared to the big 5 banks. Good management with innovative products.

BUY

At 10 X next year's earnings, a speculative takeover. Power Financial is the likely buyer. Cheap.

BUY

Still has a lot of value with about 22% upside. Ranked #1 followed by Royal, TD and Bank of Nova Scotia.

HOLD

Biggest risk is this is regional. Some risk in asset management. Hold at this stage. Doing ok but do not rush to buy.

TRADE

Valuation and outlook for this stock is good. Dividend is also great.

HOLD

Model prices on the banks have been dropping. This would be their first choice followed by Toronto Dominion, Royal Bank and Bank of Nova Scotia. Dividend.

BUY

Has the clearest strategy of all the banks. Well-established in the province of Québec. A well-managed bank.

TOP PICK

All the banks are cheap and this is the cheapest with 27% upside. 3 1/2 percent dividend yield.

TOP PICK

Likes their high retail exposure. They are allowed to have wider spreads which will give them accelerated earnings growth. 3 1/2 percent dividend.

BUY

Also likes Royal Bank and Bank of Nova Scotia.

BUY

A ranking in bank stocks that have more than 20% differential between their model price and stock-price is #1 National #2 Bank of Nova Scotia #3 Royal Bank #4 Toronto Dominion. Loves any of these.

BUY

Trades at about 11 X next year's earnings. With an election, there could be speculation on a merger which will drive the price up.
