RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Some reality

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Some realityI don't see the downside for RY - even if the housing market goes soft, the mortgages are safe. Any highly leveraged housing purchases will be insured - thereby protecting the banks. The bank revenue is highly diversified, so if the mortgage business softens, it will only have a small impact on earnings. The dividend is safe and the P/E is very reasonable. Did it get ahead of itself at $99? absolutely.

It is possible that the hedge funds are shorting RY as a proxy for the Canadian market. Time will tell. If you want to short it without paying the dividend you can buy Puts. I can see it going down to ~$91 to yield 4% but not much lower than that.

Best of luck in your investments!
