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.

Doesn’t like banks, as they have no earnings growth. Earnings are actually de-accelerating and there is so much acceleration in everything else. (He holds zero financials.)

A long-term hold at these prices. Expecting dividend increases in the 1st half of the year but this is probably largely built into the stock price. His favourite is Toronto Dominion (TD-T), which currently has the best earnings multiple but this one is his 2nd biggest position.

Thinks banks will stay where they are. They are vital blue chips. Trying to absorb their recently obtained US operations. All the banks are boringly the same.

Owned for years. Always owned some of it. Worst performing bank of big 5 in 2010. It is usually either first or second. US retail is still losing money while TD is making money in US. They will absolutely get it much better. There is a $10 gap in valuation to make up and all they have to do is half of it to get 17% return.

The banks are very much the same so if one under performs then it usually comes back. Good for the long term but thinks they will take a while to turn around.

More involved as an investment bank which means more volatility. They have to deal with their US banking business, which is not working out. At these levels, you can make money. He likes it.

Came out with some pretty poor results and disappointed a lot of their shareholders. People don’t like surprises from their bank. US assets indicate that the level of risk is still higher than estimated.

Been a disappointment. Hasn’t done a lot. Tarnished more than other banks because in second quarter markets were slow. They are a big underwriter and important that stock markets are working. Their US subsidiary is in one of the poorer areas of the US and that is tarnishing them. They didn’t increase loan loss provisions, which is a positive thing. You will have a n opportunity to sell in the high 50’s if you hold out.

10 quarters in a row of bad quarters for their US operations. For 2 – 3 months you don’t want to buy this stock, but 2 – 3 years it is a buy. They are the best retail bank in Canada.
