Royal Bank (RY-T) has garnered a strong reputation among experts, with many emphasizing its leading position in the Canadian banking sector. Analysts have highlighted solid earnings growth, improved capital reserves, and strategic moves such as the acquisition of HSBC Canada that bolster its international presence. Despite the stock trading at a premium valuation, which some view as excessive, many experts consider it a dependable long-term investment, citing its consistent dividend increases and robust fundamentals. However, caution is advised due to high current valuations and concerns over a potential downturn in the broader banking sector. The consensus reflects a belief in the bank's resilience, although calls for profit-taking and a waiting strategy for better entry points have emerged as common themes.

BUY
Good opportunities. At a good price. Also like TD and BNS.
BUY
Canadian banks are trading at better multiples than their US peers. In the short term they are being hit with problems. Long term buys. Prefers CIBC and Royal.
DON'T BUY
Banks are still too high.
PAST TOP PICK
(Was a top pick on Apr 9. Down 5%) Reasonable dividend. As a long term hold, it should be good.
BUY
Banks have dropped because of loan losses re: bankruptcies. Banks are still a good core holding for portfolios. RBC is first choice.
DON'T BUY
Would prefer Bank of Nova Scotia instead.
DON'T BUY
Lightening up on banks. Loan losses can hit them hard.
DON'T BUY
Banks are too hevily weighted in portfolios.
DON'T BUY
Expects a further pull back.
BUY
Likes the banks. BNS is #1 and the cheapest. Royal is the most expensive, but worth it because of their leadership.
DON'T BUY
Banks have outperformed so strongly they are over owned. Valuations are high.
BUY
Banks are well positioned over the next two years. Rising interest rates will not affect banks like they did historically. Relatively cheap. Prefers BNS, Royal and TD.
BUY
Canadian banks are not acting well. Royal Bank is the exception.
DON'T BUY
Not a fan of banks. Expects continuing high loan loss provisions.
DON'T BUY
Increase in interest rates will put a squeeze on the banks. They are overvalued now.
