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.
TOP PICK
Picked because of how it has acted since earnings came out. It is an over reaction. It’s not all macro. When you get a poor quarter it always tends to the mean. You should buy it now on it’s weakness.
COMMENT
(A Market Call Minute.) Above 5% of his portfolio and he is sticking with it.
WAIT
Banks tend to be a little bit soft over the summer from a seasonal perspective. Support level was broken and looks like it might get into $42-$43 range. It might be a Buy later on in the season.
