Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

I believe this one will begin to fly once US market calms down. RY is the largest player in Canada, and is actively looking beyond Canada. It's true that they have invested a lot of money in US (US footprint) and it seems it did not work out very well so far. But there ROE, ROA, EPS look positive fo...More

Wish I'd started this when they hit their recent low, which was caused by one of the US banks going bust. These guys are safe (safer than CM and BMO). They've been in the Mergents Dividend list for a while showing theyre a consistent dividend payer and raiser. Going long based on knowledge of the Canadian banking market.

Royal Bank although the market leader in the Canadian banking industry, has been aggressively moving towards a strategy used by CIBC...this same strategy got CIBC into the mess they are into today. RY also hired a handful of CIBC executives from their office that has been recently closed.





I am tiring to remain objective in my analysis; however, this move seems very risky in the near term for the company. I suspect the value will continue to decline over the next year.

Royal Bank of Canada (NYSE:RY)





I'm sold from previous pitches, I like Royal Bank because It operates in four segments: Canadian Banking, Wealth Management, U.S. & International Banking, and Capital Markets.





I also like that they offer various financial services in North America and internationally.
