Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: CIBC [CM]. I've heard it said banks tend to revert to the mean over time, so that those that are under performing tend to 'pull up their socks'. With CM and National Bank [NA] having yields over 4% would they be good banks to build/expand a portfolio of banks around assuming that, over time, their yields will come down?
Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Q: Hi Peter
NA National Bank is off its years high by close to 10%. I started initiating a position yesterday and am considering adding the rest today or tomorrow. { currently down $1.06 today } Is there any reason for this drop in price other than the market pullback ? Just want to make sure before I pull the trigger. This will bring my portfolio financial sector to a little under 10% when the additional buy is made.

Q: Hey, Peter.

I'm thinking about starting a position in National Bank (NA). It looks like it is by far the "cheapest" of the Canadian banks. I see that it is expected to make $8.61 per share in 2014. It is unrealistic to expect it to trade at a 9.5 2014 p/e multiple giving it a rough share price of $81.80 (representing a 10%+ capital gain)?

Q: Hi, I don't beleive I have seen a question on your view of the Cdn banks and which if any you would recommend at this point. Also, it would be helpful if you would provide the name of the stock in your response in addition to the symbol to avoid most members looking up more obscure names, recent example RME (Rocky Mountain Delaerships). Many thanks, great job!
