Royal Bank (RY-T) has garnered a strong reputation among experts, with many emphasizing its leading position in the Canadian banking sector. Analysts have highlighted solid earnings growth, improved capital reserves, and strategic moves such as the acquisition of HSBC Canada that bolster its international presence. Despite the stock trading at a premium valuation, which some view as excessive, many experts consider it a dependable long-term investment, citing its consistent dividend increases and robust fundamentals. However, caution is advised due to high current valuations and concerns over a potential downturn in the broader banking sector. The consensus reflects a belief in the bank's resilience, although calls for profit-taking and a waiting strategy for better entry points have emerged as common themes.

HOLD
Has done a great job over the last little while. Not adding at this time as the banks are trading at about 3 X book value. Would be more interested if they had a little bit of a pullback to 2.5 X book value.
HOLD
Very conservative. The dividend is going to continue going up.
HOLD
When you draw your two trendlines, the stock has broken through the upper trend line. You now have draw a new series of trendlines and as long as it stays above that continue to hold
BUY
Positive on the Canadian banks in general. A keeper. Pays a good dividend.
TOP PICK
This is for RBC Jan 08 call options. Would be looking to buy the $80 call or the $78 call, so they are "in the money" call options. Thinks that banks will deliver double digit retuns over the next 2 years. The leverage factor would be about 3 to 1 so you would have some pretty decent returns.
HOLD
Has had a terrific run. It's no longer a bargain, but on the other hand, it's not grossly overpriced. A good cornerstone of an equity portfolio.
TOP PICK
The biggest bank in Canada. Good management. 3.1% dividend yield.
HOLD
His model price is $84.34. Not a mispriced asset for him to be interested in. Nice dividend. Likes the banks.
BUY
Has just taken a charge for Enron related litigation and legal expenses. This bank as gone a long way to turning around its operations. On a longer term, this is a good investment. In the near term, as interest rates go up and if we do see an inversion of the yield curve, this could slow profit growth.
BUY
One of the best banks you can find in the world. Good dividend yield.
COMMENT
They have put aside $25 million for the settlement related to Enron.
DON'T BUY
Now starting to deal with their unprofitable US assets, so the outlook on the stock has improved. Pretty fairly valued here.
HOLD
Going to continue to rise. Has a dominant position. A solid stock.
BUY
Has gone from being the laggard in the bank area to probably one of the strongest performers. Have taken action in the US to get out of businesses they should'nt have been in.
TOP PICK
Profitability for all major Canadian banks is staggering. It is averaging around 19%. Good growth.
