PAST TOP PICK

(Top Short Feb 13/04. Down 9%.) The chart still shows a major sell.

TOP PICK
At this price, it's going for 2 X book. 3.5% dividend. Very well-run bank. Good price.
DON'T BUY
Not a big fan of the financials at this time. Could have a difficult time when interest rates start rising. Does the a lot of downside, but minimal growth and the dividend.
HOLD
Has reduced bank holdings in his portfolios due to concerns of rising interest rates. Increased dividends should mitigate this. Right now, it's as good as it gets for banks.
DON'T BUY
Has been an underperformer compared to the other Banks because their US holdings have not perform well.
BUY
Underpriced. Also likes National Bank and Bank of Nova Scotia.
BUY
A ranking in bank stocks that have more than 20% differential between their model price and stock-price is #1 National #2 Bank of Nova Scotia #3 Royal Bank #4 Toronto Dominion. Loves any of these.
DON'T BUY
Not a fan of the Bank's right now, but if he was, Toronto Dominion and National would be the two he would be interested in.
BUY
Nothing spectacular came out of the bank earnings. As slight miss. Likes it for a short-term trade. Could see a slight upside.
DON'T BUY
3 1/2% yield. A good entry point on this stock would be in the low $40's. Can't see a good deal of upside.
TOP PICK
3 1/2 % yield. 12 X earnings. 26% earnings growth. Extremely well-run. Should have good growth.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Apr 1/04. Down 6%.) Still likes. Valuation is very cheap.
BUY
In the long run, the banks are the best place to be. In the near term, with a rising interest rates they have not been acting as well. Have had a lot of missteps in the US so has not performed well.
BUY
The policy on bank mergers has been tabled pending the federal election. Selling of bank stocks has been overdone.
BUY
Financial service sector has two periods of seasonal strength. End of September to end of December and end of February to end of May.
