RE:BNS is a BARGAIN !You have to wonder why anyone would take the advice of someone of an entity that has Fool in their name, lol.
That aside, Canadian banks are at or near their 52 week lows. Today is Ex-Dividend day for BNS and it should be trading $1.06 lower due to this, but you never know where it end up.
Look at what's happened to the share price of CIBC. One thing is sure, our Canadian Banks are solid. The have and will always continue to provide security and will never skip a dividend payment.
Buy the dips and hold if you're invested.
