Royal Bank (RY-T) is widely regarded as the top Canadian bank and has excelled in capital markets and wealth management. Recent reviews highlight its strategic decisions, such as the acquisition of HSBC, which position it well for future growth through cross-selling products. While the Canadian banking sector has performed strongly, the stock is trading at historical highs in terms of price-to-earnings ratios, prompting concerns about valuation among some analysts. The bank's dividend yield, while lower than 3%, has shown a consistent upward trend. Many experts see RY as a cornerstone holding in their portfolios due to its stable growth and ability to maintain capital during market uncertainties. Despite the current high valuations, RY continues to be recommended as a solid long-term investment, with potential for growth as market conditions evolve.

DON'T BUY
Until they start to show any improvement or any execution, do not rush to buy the stocks.
DON'T BUY
Banks should do well but Royal Bank is a little behind the rest of the banks and may not do as well.
BUY
Q: On a dividend reinvestment plan, what would you suggest. A: Banks such as Bank of Nova Scotia, Toronto Dominion Bank, Royal Bank.
BUY
One of the most obvious buys in the market. The stock has gone nowhere over the last year and a half. Selling at a discount. 3 1/2% yield.
BUY
All the banks are cheap and this has a mid 20% upside.
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.
