BUY
Believes this stock will split soon. Also due for a dividend increase. This stock had been oversold and never deserved to be under $60. Might be a little bit overbought right now. Expecting pretty good earnings.

WEAK BUY
No longer a mispriced asset. The model price is $79.63. Would prefer Toronto Dominion (TD-T), National Bank (NA-T) or Bank of Montreal (BMO-T) because there are wider differentials between the stock prices and his model prices.

HOLD
Probably a split coming. Feels the stock is a little overpriced. Yield is now below that of the other banks. A premier bank and one of the best run in North America. US operation is showing some improvement.

DON'T BUY
In the last couple of year, was a poor absolute and relative performer to the other banks. Last quarter was good. Stock jumped up and has now been sideways/up a little bit and people are wondering if there is follow through to that. Would trade it in for another bank stock such as National (NA-T) Bank of Montreal (BMO-T) or a life insurance company.

BUY
Top 3 choices in banks for the long term would be Toronto Dominion (TD-T), Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS-T) and Royal Bank (RY-T). Where this could be wrong is if the Bank of Montreal (BMO-T) gets taken over at some point and it would be thw big winner. Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CM-T) is not particularily cheap right now.

BUY
Had a pop a few months ago because they started to post some better profit growth again. Was the weak sister of the banks over '01 & '02. Has a very high ROE level at 18%. Recent growth rate is very strong which means it is probably going to deliver some positive earnings surprises.

BUY
Using P/E ratios, banks are among the cheapest in the financials. Bank of Montreal (BMO-T) and Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS-T) are the cheapest followed by Toronto Dominion (TD-T) then by Royal (RY-T) and CIBC (CM-T). His favourite is Toronto Dominion. Michael Sprung, of his firm, likes Bank of Nova Scotia and CIBC.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 4/05. Up 14.5%.) Happened quicker than he expected. Now it's averaged value and you need follow through. Not trading at a premium yet, and doesn't deserve it. Can probably see high $70's in a year.
