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.

PAST TOP PICK

Aug 29, 2011
(A Top Pick Sept 9/10. Down 3.86%.) Earnings were a little light, primarily because of lower margins. They are more geared towards capital markets, which was light on the trading side. Still a Hold.

Hasn't been a fan of this bank. Didn't like their presence in retail banking in the US. They will lose money when they sell this. A lot of their earnings come from trading, which is a highly volatile business. Unpredictable.

Ranks 140 in his models. Earnings for their core business was down about 8%. Loan growth has been week. All banks will be challenged between now and the end of the year.

Wait until we see earnings on Friday. Shed it’s US subsidiary, took a write down, but not a bad one. It was a millstone around the banks neck. It is cheap and dividend (4%) is good. As long as earnings don’t have nasty surprises.

There are other banks that are better value at this time. Revenues are very highly leveraged to the capital market so not as stable as you might get in other banks.

Not super enthused about the banks right now. There is better yield elsewhere. They are economy stocks and the economy is slowing here. A 2 year horizon is pretty good on this one.

Aug 15, 2011
Have had particular issues in their US operations, which has helped weaken stock prices. They've now shed most of that but caused a drag on their Canadian operations side. Not expensive, but he would rather be in other banks.

Convertible preferred? He would be kind of negative on preferreds. This bank is “best in class” along with Toronto dominion (TD-T). Got out of the US retail and are now focusing on wealth management. Not a bad time for purchase of the common shares.

Generally hasn’t owned or liked Canadian banks, but with the recent pullback, they are starting to represent interesting values here. (He recently bought TD (TD-T).) This one has not had the success in the US like the TD has. With 4% dividend yield, it represents pretty interesting value.

Has been the laggard in the banking sector because of lack of US exposure. They are abandoning the US market. Has a cloud over it from the perspective of global investment banking. Probably not a bad idea to buy the one that has under performed.

Looking to buy asset managers. This has become quite a profit centre for some of the banks but it also has its volatile aspects. There is a lot of competition in this area. Prefers a domestic business instead, like Toronto Dominion (TD-T) has.

Last quarter was a big mess relative to all the other banks, which were basically in line. Relied very heavily on wholesale banking and trading. All volumes were very low, so she doesn't expect it to do well this quarter either. Not an exciting strategy.

Banks are generally not acting that well here. This one made a big mistake moving into the US. Their timing was exceedingly poor and where they bought was not very good. It has cost them a lot and has hurt their balance sheet.

COMMENT

Canadian banks have come under a little bit of pressure lately. Have been a safe place to be in the last year or so. Earnings growth is clearly slowing down. Safe and a decent dividend but the earnings are not going to grow. He is probably half of his normal weighting in banks.
