This summary was created by AI, based on 56 opinions in the last 12 months.

Royal Bank of Canada (RY) is viewed as a solid investment, characterized by its strong market position as the largest and top-performing bank in Canada. Analysts praise its balanced approach to growth and income, particularly highlighting the accelerated growth in capital markets and wealth management sectors. While many experts agree on its premium valuation relative to historical averages, they continue to express confidence in the bank's long-term prospects, backed by solid earnings and a consistent dividend record. Some experts have suggested a cautious approach, recommending trimming positions or taking profits due to high valuations, yet many maintain it as a core holding in their portfolios. The overall funding environment and regulatory moves are seen as conducive to future growth, despite the potential macroeconomic challenges ahead.

Good dividend growth over time, but for very long term you could take more risk.

(A Top Pick June 20/11. Up 2.59%.) Likes banks in general. Their trading in capital markets is a little hard to forecast. Likes that they are in wealth management, which is less sensitive to the capital markets. Increasing their dividends.

Fairly staid bank and have corrected nicely. Pays around 4% dividend. Conservative play and not a bad place to be but he would wait before getting in.

He likes this bank the best. Has one of the better franchises. Good growth opportunities going forward. 4% dividend looks very well covered and there are opportunities for it to go up.

COMMENT

Apr 30, 2012
Preferred Series T maturing in Aug/14? These are a part of the new rate reset preferred shares that came out during the 2008-2009 crises. This one has a 6.25% dividend yield and is trading at a premium. The yield to reset is only around 3%.

Has had a healthy recovery from where it was and has come back to being a good performer. He feels Canadian banks are expensive at this time. He’d rather own US banks where the upside potential is better.

Pretty good valuation. Likes the banks as a group. Royal is the one that can grow the most from a normalizing world. Their wholesale earnings had improved a great deal and hopefully it will repeat going forward. Recent acquisition will be accretive and they got it a really good price.

COMMENT

Apr 24, 2012
Preferred Series T bonds maturing Aug/14? They don't actually mature on that date. This is actually a reset date. At that date, they have the right to Call them or reset the dividend at a spread over Canada's. With recent changes in bank regulations, he expects they will be called on that date. Trading at a premium. This will disappear over time. He likes them.

Buy at around $53-$54 and selling at $57. Good strategy? The Buy price is reasonable but he is not strong on the strategy. A little nervous of banks generally because if you get European problems developing over the summer, it will affect Canadian banks.

Generally speaking she likes the banks and RY has dipped and that has been a function of the overall market. Increased its dividend last quarter along with some other banks so it is not at risk. If market pulls back a bit it could be a good time to put some more into a portfolio.

(Top Pick Mar 3/11, Up 2.05%) One of his favourite banks. One of 3 that he owns with good positions. They took steps to fix a lot of problems with their retail area in the US and that is done. Thinks earnings will approach $5 in the next couple of years. 3.9% dividend yield. Valuation is fair.

(Top Pick Mar 21/11, Up 0.50%) Still likes banks because they are oligopolies. Dividend comes out of the retail side of business. Expect dividend increases of 5-6% per year so you aren’t going to make a lot of money from them but are core positions for him.

He thinks there is probably a lot of upside on the banks here. There is reasonable earnings growth. There is probably good dividend growth. RY had a great turnaround on wholesale and retail numbers. You could buy it right here.

The lesson is to buy banks in the penalty box. It is a hold for them and is their third favourite. It is more expensive here than he would like. Nothing wrong with it.
