This summary was created by AI, based on 55 opinions in the last 12 months.

Royal Bank (RY-T) has been a strong performer, with a consensus appreciation for its stability, especially in its capital markets and wealth management divisions. Experts praise the bank's robust earnings, dividends that have grown consistently, and its strategic acquisition of HSBC Canada, which is expected to enhance its global platform. However, there are concerns regarding its current high valuation relative to historical standards and the overall Canadian banking sector, leading some to suggest trimming positions. While many maintain a positive outlook on RY due to its dominance and management quality, the general sentiment reflects caution against buying at elevated prices with potential headwinds from slowing loan growth and economic pressures.

WAIT
Canadian Banks: Are right in the middle of their historic valuation range. Outlook is neutral, relative to market. Nice yield. Concerns about bank profitability in general. He doesn’t own any banks. Would like to see $42 to buy.
COMMENT
He would do covered calls out about 6 months. He picks up a fair bit of time value.
BUY
Cdn banks are in fine shape. Pay nice dividends and are very conservative on a global basis. This company alone is probably worth its share price.
BUY
Trading at 10.6X next year's earnings with a yield of 4.48%. Likes the banks as a group longer-term. His preference would be Toronto Dominion (TD-T) and this one.
DON'T BUY
Cdn banks in general are not a very attractive place to be right now. Their outlook for growth is fairly muted especially as the mortgage markets are being tightened in. This bank has a big presence in capital markets and a big and much growing presence in management. Both of these things are pretty muted right now.
BUY
You can buy any of the Cdn banks. They are all very fairly valued here and all pay good dividend yields. Good entry point on the whole group.
COMMENT
Caller would like to write an October $65 uncovered call. Uncovered calls are very high risk.
BUY
It is right on its model price like with all banks. It is at the bottom of the zone so a good place to purchase and a nice dividend.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Jun 20/11, Down 4.47%) Likes Canadian Financials. Banks have never cut their dividends and raised them all in the first quarter. Likes their wealth management.
BUY
Right now it is a pick between any of the banks. His preferred banks are this one, National Bank (NA-T) and Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS-T). Very cheap. Dividends are terrific.
DON'T BUY
Canadian banks have traded off the latest quarter in the recent past. This banks quarter did not go well so it will be under pressure. Best quarters were reported by National (NA-T) and Toronto Dominion (TD-T) and these are the 2 banks she owns. She would be Shorting the ones that reported they weakest numbers.
BUY
Will the Volker rule affect the profitability of Canadian banks? Capital market is an important priority for this bank but he doesn't think the Volker rule will affect them in a material manner. Thinks the selloff on this stock is a bit overdone. 4.47% dividend. Doesn't expect tremendous growth in Canadian banks.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Not so hot. You have various criticisms and banks are a little difficult. Would prefer others.
TOP PICK
People over reacted to missing earnings by a penny. Thinks it will make $5.30 next year which makes it 10x earnings. You get a nice dividend. Has all the things he likes. Reasonable growth prospects, good dividend and balance sheet.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Jun 20/11, Down 2.95%) He would be a buyer at today’s level. They have a larger exposure to Europe than the other Canadian banks do. Dominate franchise. Underlying value is quite significant. Almost 5% yield.
