Royal Bank (RY) is widely recognized as the leading bank in Canada, benefiting from a favorable regulatory environment and robust investments in capital markets and wealth management. Many analysts have reiterated it as a 'Top Pick,' citing its strong earnings growth and consistent dividend payments. Despite its strong performance, concerns about valuation persist, particularly with the stock trading at high multiples compared to historical averages. Comments on future growth potential highlight the bank's ability to adapt in the current economic climate, although some experts advise exercising caution due to high valuation levels. Overall, RY is considered a stable, long-term investment with significant upside potential, supported by growing cash reserves and elevated return on equity targets.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
As it gets close to $50, it becomes fully valued. A good entry point is under $45.
DON'T BUY
His current model price is $51.70. That is only a positive 9.7% differential. The model price has been going down because interest rates have been going up.
DON'T BUY
Banks, by default, are going to attract some money. The church seems to indicate the upward trend is over. In bear markets, wealth management companies do not do so well.
BUY
Banks have pulled back for the first 4/5 months of this year. Down to a level where they should be purchased.
WEAK BUY
One of the few banks that still has some good operating leverage in it. Fairly priced but there is still a lot they can do to cut their cost structure and change some of their US operations and to grow it. Some good opportunities. Okay for the long-term.
TOP PICK
Better valuation probably then most of the other financial stocks. Good ROE level at around 21/22%, which is very high. Good dividend yield.
BUY
Likes the banking sector. His favourite is Toronto Dominion (TD-T) with Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS-T) and Royal (RY-T) following in that order.
BUY
Probably the most expensive of the banks right now at 13.1 P/E. yield is 3.19%.
BUY
Gives you a 23% ROE. Biggest bank in Canada. A more conservative holding.
HOLD
Good management and good decision-making. All the Canadian banks, in spite of the pullback, are still only fair value.
DON'T BUY
Fully valued. Corporate finance had a good run, but those numbers cannot be extrapolated into the future.
BUY
Good bank. Clicking away in all the right places. Have a great core franchise in retail. Good level.
BUY
All of the banks have retraced a little bit. If your time horizon is long enough, this is a buying opportunity. Can see a possible 15% one-year return at low risk.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 22/05. Up 8%.) This was for a Jan/08 call option which probably tripled.
TOP PICK
This is selling a covered call. Dividend of about 3% gives you a cash flow. Because banks are correcting based on fears of interest rates going up further, this is not a bad way to play the banks for the next 2/3 months.
