Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD) has shown a robust recovery following its money laundering scandal, yielding strong returns this year, with some reports indicating a rise as high as 72%. Despite this positive momentum, many analysts believe the stock is currently overvalued, trading at higher-than-normal P/E ratios—around 14 to 16 times—and above historical averages for Canadian banks. Experts express caution, suggesting trimming positions or waiting for a market pullback before initiating new purchases. The bank’s U.S. operations remain under regulatory scrutiny, limiting growth potential, which adds to the complex outlook for TD. While many hold on to their shares for long-term growth, there is a consensus on the need for careful evaluation of entry points due to high valuations.
Tough year for the banks. Q4 will be released in a few weeks, and you never know what you're going to get. Brighter days are ahead, and the market's already figured that out. BMO is not his favourite. Prefers National, TD, Royal. You'll do fine with the Canadian banks. Some concerns around fintech. Low interest rates will be a problem, but offset by recovering economy. Good time to add for dividend seekers.
Going forward, Canadian banks will face low interest rates for quite some time, as well as a struggling economy. Government won't allow mass credit losses. Banks will muddle along, you get your dividend. TD is his first choice of the Canadian banks.
Canadian bank outlook The Canadian banks offer decent value though have lagged the overall market. The banks have provisioned in Q2 and Q3, and this level has likely peaked, so these levels should decline ahead. Look out for the next quarterly report, because the banks heavily warned about mortgages and commercial loans and many of these will start to roll off. The banks offer good dividend yields that she expects to hold. The banks entered the pandemic with strong capital and continued to strengthen it. She also own RY. Like this and TD. She'd buy both presently.
BNS and TD have performed the best during his career. TD is well-managed and it expanded to the US at a good time, but loan opportunities in the US are not good. BNS has invested heavily in Latin America, and moving into digital banking with Tangerine. Latin American can offer upside, but is also risky. The overall bank industry faces concerns over loan losses during COVID--we'll see what happens. Markets will tend to fear over these losses, which he feels is overdone. This week, we'll see the data.
