Canadian bank with big, stable, retail operations but has lots of room for growth as it is Canada's most international bank.

Canadian banks are up a ton, but aren't done yet. In addition to the fact that fair pricing has the stocks still 20% under-valued, they're all boasting a 3-6% dividend. How can you go wrong?

Short term this sector is in trouble. That said, this is one of the best picks in the sector and will survive what is coming. They are active in 50 countries worldwide and quietly expanding. Granny always said: "don't put all your eggs in one basket."

Solid and well run. Canadian banks are in good shape. This is one of the 5 or so large banks. It has favorable valuation.

The Canadian Federal Government introduced TFSA(Tax-Free Savings Account) in the 2008 budget. As soon as the majority of the citizens fully understands the benefits of TFSA, Bank of Nova Scotia will accommodate their needs.

Good earnings and cash flow and low debt ratio. Not that battered by the financial crisis US facing. Fair value at $41.70.

The big five banks in Canada operate a virtual oligarchy, which make their moats deep and wide. Regulations have protected Canadian banks from the worst of the toxic loans. The Governor of the Bank of Canada projects that Canada will be best positioned developed nation in 2010 after the worst of the recession is over. BNS, in particular, is geographically diversified and has made in roads into Latin America and the Caribbean.

Classic example of an inefficiency in the market - BNS is OVERSOLD for no particular reason. Good franchise, hefty dividend, BNS will make a comeback over the next 12 months!
