WAIT

Regulatory environment for US banks has been difficult. Doing a lot with blockchain, one of the leaders in trying to get it into bank strategies. Interest margins are going to be tough with the flat curve, so he's taken money out of US banks. Can't find a higher quality name than this. Best CEO in the game. Just doesn't like it at these levels.

BUY

One of the three US banks he owns. Financials have lagged in this rally of the last three months. Latest earnings are very positive.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 16/18, Up 3%) Got hammered in December but has recovered well. It's the best American bank. Its peers have disappointed him. Can't go wrong with it.

BUY

The cream of the crop, with fine products and managers. They rose their dividend which has room to grown. Loves JPM. PB and PE are cheap. It's his favourite US bank.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 21/18, Down 12%) He took a position during low interest rates. They moved up and the industry performed incredibly well and then something bad happened. Interest rates went high and money market funds became competitive with bank deposits.

COMMENT

They have a lot of room to go. He sees % growth. Capital ratios are very good. Return on equity is among the highest. It's a play on the US doing well and global growth. You can do well buying and holding this long-term.

BUY

He'd step into it. It's a sector leader. Didn't have a good Q4, but no bank did. It's an opportunity now. Pays a good dividend and run by a good CEO.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 13/18, Down 6%) The US bank sector took a hit in December and it has not quite recovered entirely yet. This is her play on the US economy and they have the largest holding of US investor holdings. They increased the dividend by 40% last year and the yield exceeds 3%. It trades at 10 times earnings -- below historical norms. Yield 3.1%.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 14/18, Down 9%) Surprised and confounded him. Banks in Canada as well as America took a dive last year. JPM is a one-stop banking shop in the US: commercial banking, investment banking, personal banking. They recently rose their dividend. At the time, interest rates rose, so he though this sector would do quite well. It didn't. He's more positive on US banks vs. Canadian, because of de-regulation there. He's confident in management.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 16/18, Down 11%) It's going to have some resistance about $100. He thinks it is a quality bank and soon we should see a challenge of the previous high at $120.

COMMENT

BAC or JPM? He owns JP Morgan, but likes BAC as well. Overall, JP Morgan has been a premium bank in the US since the recession. The US banks are trading extremely cheap -- he likes both.

DON'T BUY

The ruling today for $135 Million is a trivial amount. They are one of the best banks in the world. We have 200 years of history with markets and they have been under-performing markets except for a few 3-5 years periods. Interest rates right now are not good for them. Credit provisioning is relatively low and can only go up. But we could have years of strong credit performance. JPM-N is definitely a great company it the question is whether to own banks. Big banks are growing somewhere between 0 and .2 percent.

WATCH

All the US major banks look the same. Chart is better than Goldman Sachs. It's broken, but is it flat-out broken? It's not been annihilated. In short-term, it will probably bounce up, but if we're in a bear market, it will go down with everything else. If there's a bounce, the banks will be the leaders. The next week will be key.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 03/18, Down 5%) US banks have a fared a bit better than Canadian ones. A long-time base around $100 for JPM. A good risk-to-reward is being set up now. Seasonality is happening now. Limited downside and much upside.

TOP PICK

Yield is now 3.2% trading at 11 times earnings. Was at $120 not long ago. They generate so much excess cash flow from their earnings that could probably return 4-5% of their capital in terms of stock repurchases. One of the best-run banks in the world. International presence with a lot of opportunities. (Analysts’ price target is $123.85)
