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.
BUY
Has been a laggard to its peers. Took a hit because of their US holdings. Stronger US dollar should help them.
HOLD
Likes this bank, but wouldn't say it is the top financial service company of there. Would prefer Manulife. 3% yield.
BUY
Has been beat up pretty badly over the past 1 1/2 years because of the acquisitions in the US and the troubles in the mortgage market in the US. A lot of the bad news is already in the stock. Valuation is looking more intriguing.
WEAK BUY
4% dividend versus other banks with 3%. Good bank for a long term hold, but would prefer Toronto Dominion in the shorter term.
DON'T BUY
Long-term interest rates have been rising. That makes it difficult for financial institutions.
BUY
Caller uses 200 day moving average for his entry point. A little bit above the growth Channel and there could be concerns on the wedging pattern. Banks should be OK.
BUY
Prefers TD which is the cheapest bank. Bank of Nova Scotia is second choice. Royal Bank is third but a buy. Has been a laggard.
BUY
US has been the drag on this operation. Thinks their capital markets are going to have a very strong quarter based on the IPO activity. The wealth management and domestic banking is pretty good. Recent pullback is a good opportunity to buy.
DON'T BUY
Prefers TD and the Commerce. This bank seems to have been slipping for a while.
DON'T BUY
Has been sluggish for a while. Doesn't expect it to move much higher.
