Considering TD but which bank is best?
I dipped my toes into the small caps but a nibble got bitten off. And that's *with* years of experience investing and knowledge of certain areas. I am tempted to stay but I can't deal with the drastic swings or extreme hype. Mind boggling! Endless and self-serving hype. I find it too stressful/uncertain so a "boring" bank is just what I need right now to reshape portions of my portfolio.
I'm thinking Canadian banks : TD, Royal, BMO, CIBC?
TD is odd in that they appears to have the biggest short interest except for the ishares TSX! From my perspective, banks always make money but TD is the bad child?
I've done well buying when everyone had given up on good companies (picked up CN and Bell when they had fallen off of favor) On a first pass, TD and Royal both seem to be great values at these points. Timing is off but I prefer to set my positions and not worry about trying to follow the stuff daily Maybe checking it monthly or so.
Looks like TD restructured and took a hit?. Any other issue to consider? Is Royal better and why?
Thanks! Happy Investing!
