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.

TOP PICK
Top Short Has been in a huge wedge triangle. Volume is failing and it's below its recent high's
TOP PICK
Is a laggard. Well run bank. Good entry point. With dividend and upside, you get 15%.
BUY
Own both TD and Royal, but stronger preference for Royal because of their stronger diversification in the US.
TOP PICK
If breaks $60.00 he will quickly head down into the $50's
BUY
Lagging the other banks. They have a significant part of their operations exposed to capital markets which should be a source of growth for them.
HOLD
A more defensive holding. Prefers others with a better growth outlook.
WAIT
Has been struggling against the slowly rising technical trend line of $61/65 and can't seem to get through it. Fair market value is less than the current price.
DON'T BUY
Prefers other banks and would be a seller on any strength.
DON'T BUY
Likes this bank, but it may be a little ahead of itself.
BUY
Doesn't expect it to drop, so don't wait for dips.
BUY
Like their corporate strategy.
BUY
A good bank to hold in your portfolio. Will probably increase their dividend. One of the best-operated banks in Canada. Could have a stock split in 2004.
DON'T BUY
At the higher end of their valuation.
HOLD
Likes the way they have done their US acquisitions. At this point, prefers Bank of Nova Scotia and Toronto Dominion Bank.
DON'T BUY
Very good bank longer term. Not much upside left
