Royal Bank (RY) has been reviewed positively by multiple financial experts, highlighting its stable performance and strong management. It has shown substantial growth, with a commendable increase in both profit margin and market position, benefiting from a robust capital markets business and the successful acquisition of HSBC Canada. However, some experts express caution, pointing out that RY is trading at high valuation metrics, with premium multiples that may lead to a restrictive growth outlook. A consensus emerges that while RY maintains its status as a leading Canadian bank with solid fundamentals, the valuation may limit near-term upside. Many analysts recommend holding the stock due to potential for steady dividends and modest growth in the longer term, suggesting RY is a core holding yet requiring vigilance concerning market fluctuations.

COMMENT
Over the long term you will be a winner with either Toronto Dominion (TD-T) or Royal RY-T). Fantastic retail franchises, which will really determine the winners in the banking space. TD has been knocked back a bit so you get a better valuation with it.
HOLD
Stick with Canadian financial services sector over American. Stick with Royal bank over American banks.
SELL
Doesn't particularly like the banks so we would be more on the Sell side of things.
TOP PICK
(Note: - Royal employs him.) Very aggressive in making acquisitions outside Canada. 4th largest banker in the Caribbean. Increased its dividend 25% in the last year. Good value.
HOLD
A good long-term hold. Her other choices in banks would be Toronto Dominion (TD-T) and Scotia (BNS-T). At this price, she is taking some money off the table and putting it into non-bank financials.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Banks as a group have been taking a rest recently. The Royal is a class act. This is the kind of stock you can buy and put away. The upcoming environment for the banks is a little bit tricky right now, so you will have opportunities to buy.
DON'T BUY
Had been subject to some top forming and problem areas. Had a strong up leg and then went into a head and shoulders formation. Price has fallen below the moving averages, which indicates some problems ahead.
DON'T BUY
Wouldn’t be buyer. Canadian over own financial stocks. Poor performer since August.
COMMENT
Because of their increased exposure in the US are facing a bit of the credit crunch and are being tarred on sub primes with the same brush. Some of the other banks are looking better to investors.
TRADE
Likes Canadians banks, they will fare better than American counterparts.

COMMENT
Used to be the leader and traded at a premium. Have struggled a bit with their US operations.
DON'T BUY
Feels it is pricey at over 3X book. 3.7% yield but you can do as well in many of the other banks.
BUY
Had a pretty good quarter. Banks look very interesting here. Doesn't think there's a lot more damage that could be felt on the asset side. Very well run.
HOLD
In the current economy, banks will be leading the market down but once things turn around, they would lead the market back up. Doesn't think we are finished going down yet. Wait.
