This summary was created by AI, based on 57 opinions in the last 12 months.

Royal Bank (RY-T) is widely viewed as a strong performer in the Canadian banking sector, with reviews highlighting its premium positioning and strong capital markets performance. Experts cite robust earnings growth driven by investments in technology, particularly in capital markets and wealth management, as key factors contributing to its resilience. While the valuation of RY is noted to be at a premium compared to historical averages, many analysts believe this premium is justified due to the bank's consistent performance, effective management, and growth potential, particularly following the acquisition of HSBC Canada. Despite some concerns about market valuations being high and potential economic headwinds, RY maintains a favorable outlook, with many recommending it as a core holding for long-term investors. Dividend growth is also a recurring theme, showcasing the bank's commitment to return capital to shareholders while supporting growth initiatives.

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

Royal Bank(RY.TO)

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.

Canadian Banks: Have all just finished reporting, few increasing in dividends that were unexpected. 8-10% upside potential plus dividends. Would prefer banks to pipelines or telecoms. RY in particular is a bank they like. BMO, TD also held.

COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) At these price levels, all the banks are starting to look pretty rich. Dividend yields are not bad but don't expect to see tremendous earnings growth or dividend growth above 4%-5%.

Not his favourite. Lost a little of their old panache. None of the banks have given much in the way of performance. Yields are okay, but are not spectacular. Banking business is tough right now. Spreads are terrible.

A lot of the concern that was expressed was well overdone. He is not concerned about any of the chartered banks. Has the largest dividend in Canada and is a pretty well run bank. He considers banks core stocks. They suffered from what has been happening south of the border but they were not affected. It’s a good sign that people are coming back in to the banks.

Core holding. Has had a descent run. 50% of business is retail and you can only cut costs to increase profits. He is comfortable with it vs. insurance companies.
