PAST TOP PICK
(Was a top pick on Apr 9. Down 5%) Reasonable dividend. As a long term hold, it should be good.

Banks have dropped because of loan losses re: bankruptcies. Banks are still a good core holding for portfolios. RBC is first choice.

Would prefer Bank of Nova Scotia instead.

Lightening up on banks. Loan losses can hit them hard.

Banks are too hevily weighted in portfolios.

DON'T BUY
Banks have outperformed so strongly they are over owned. Valuations are high.

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.

Canadian banks are not acting well. Royal Bank is the exception.

Not a fan of banks. Expects continuing high loan loss provisions.
