This summary was created by AI, based on 55 opinions in the last 12 months.

Royal Bank (RY-T) has been a strong performer, with a consensus appreciation for its stability, especially in its capital markets and wealth management divisions. Experts praise the bank's robust earnings, dividends that have grown consistently, and its strategic acquisition of HSBC Canada, which is expected to enhance its global platform. However, there are concerns regarding its current high valuation relative to historical standards and the overall Canadian banking sector, leading some to suggest trimming positions. While many maintain a positive outlook on RY due to its dominance and management quality, the general sentiment reflects caution against buying at elevated prices with potential headwinds from slowing loan growth and economic pressures.

TOP PICK
4.93% Bond maturing July 16/25. A deposit note, which is right near the top of the capital structure. Very well run bank, well diversified and good balance sheet.
HOLD
6.821% maturing June 30/49 and callable June 30/18. Will probably be called in 2018 because this is a Tier 1 capital structure. This is a high-quality credit.
TRADE
RY preferred shares. Could sell at a premium, and he is going to re-examine but likely he will continue to hold them. Not a lot of upside in the short term, but there is only one way for them to go.
BUY
(Market Call Minute)
BUY
Sees this as flat in the next 6 months but you'll get your dividend but could be a little higher. Really depends on what happens in August or November with the Basil 3 G20 meeting.
HOLD
Premier Bank in Canada. Has come down a lot during the correction. 4% dividend yield.
TOP PICK
Missed on their earnings and the market overdid it. Has problems in the US, but everybody does. Operations in Canada are very strong. As recovery takes hold earnings and dividend will grow. Top-notch company, 25% cheaper than in April.
BUY
Missed its quarter saw analysts took their targets lower so the bank lost its premium royalty. Fairly good value here. 4% dividend yield. May be a soft quarter coming up.
BUY
You have to remember that while they had great earnings, a lot of this was coming from trading revenues. Much more reasonable pricing now for a long-term investor.
COMMENT
High yielding stocks are so attractive because of their yield that now is the time to start looking at them even though technically they don't look that hot. Dividend yield in excess of 4%. Good place to hide until September/October. As a seasonal investor this is not something he would do.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Dec 3/09, Down 10%) Attractively priced right now. Getting a nice dividend right now.
BUY
Sometimes when companies report earnings and are the only ones in the group that disappoint, they get punished. That's the case with this bank. Great entry point and has the most potential for growth between now and the end of the year. Toronto Dominion (TD-T) is his favourite followed by this one.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Banks face new regulations at year-end. RY is the next one he would consider buying. 2 to 3 years it is a great purchase.
BUY
Missed earnings expectations. However broken down they missed on trading, the most volatile part of the business. Retail and wholesale have been doing very fine. Attractive price. Good dividend at 3.7%.
BUY
Took advantage of weakness in the US to buy banking assets on sale. Long term buy.
