104712493 : When Canada's big banks report their earnings, you can generally expect a few key signals or themes that investors and analysts will be looking for. Here’s a breakdown of what to focus on:
1. Loan Growth and Credit Quality
Loan growth: Investors will closely monitor trends in retail, commercial, and mortgage lending. Any signs of slowing loan growth can indicate challenges in the economy, such as higher interest rates or reduced consumer demand.
2. Net Interest Margin (NIM) and Interest Rates
Net Interest Margin: NIM reflects the difference between the interest income the bank earns on loans and the interest it pays on deposits. In a rising rate environment, NIM can expand, but if rates are high for too long, it may start to compress due to weaker loan demand or greater competition for deposits.
Interest Rate Impact: The performance of Canadian banks is often closely tied to interest rates. Analysts will be looking for commentary on how banks are navigating higher rates, especially in the context of the Bank of Canada’s monetary policy.
3. Fee Income and Wealth Management
Banks in Canada earn significant revenue from wealth management, capital markets, and investment banking. Fee-based income from these sectors can be a major driver of profits.
Investment banking performance: If capital markets are subdued, this may impact fees from trading, investment banking, and underwriting.
Wealth and asset management: With the aging population, wealth management is an important area.
4. Expenses and Efficiency
Cost control: Banks will often provide guidance on their cost control measures. Analysts will be assessing whether banks are effectively managing their expenses, especially as many have made significant investments in digital transformation and technology.
Efficiency ratio: This ratio measures how much it costs to generate a dollar of revenue. A lower ratio generally indicates a more efficient bank

天生赢家贵公子 : $Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS.CA)$ Canadian major banks' fourth-quarter financial report: Which signals are worth paying attention to?
With the imminent release of the fourth-quarter financial reports of Canada's five major banks (BNS, RY, TD, BMO, CM) in 2024, the market is eagerly anticipating their performance. Below are my personal analysis and opinions:
Firstly, the Canadian banking industry faces the double-edged sword of interest rate environment. Due to the Bank of Canada's sustained high interest rates, the banks' net interest margin (NIM) may remain at a high level, providing support for profits. However, with interest rates staying elevated, consumer and corporate loan demand may weaken, and the risk of rising default rates cannot be ignored. In particular, the performance of the mortgage market will be the focus of investors.
Secondly, against the backdrop of slowing global economic growth, the performance of Canadian banks' capital markets business may come under pressure. Although the stock market performed strongly in 2024, investment banking and trading income may be affected by market fluctuations. Pay close attention to BMO and RY, as their performance in the capital markets business may contribute significantly to the overall financial reports.
Additionally, investors should focus on the banks' provisions. Faced with potential economic recession risks, whether the major banks will increase loan loss provisions will be an important signal for evaluating their future stability. In particular, TD and CM, due to their higher business presence in the USA market, their cross-border business performance may be more volatile.
In conclusion, I believe that this financial reporting season will highlight the banks' ability to adapt in a high-interest rate environment and their defensive strategies against future economic uncertainties. For long-term investors, Canadian banks still have solid dividend and risk-resistant advantages, but it is essential to be vigilant against short-term volatility risks and pay attention to the management's forward-looking guidance.

Bank of Canada expected to do a 50 bps cut on Wednesday, and another 50 bps in Dec.
IMO, the recent economic data coming out of the US is a blip, and in the coming months we will see it follow the same trend as Canada has been a leading indicator as of late $Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS.CA)$ $ISHARES S&P/TSX 60 INDEX ETF UNIT (XIU.CA)$ $The Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD.CA)$

Is now a terrible time to exit Canadian Blue chip?

Half my portfolio are ETFs. The other half are: $Condor Resources Inc (CN.CA)$ , $The Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD.CA)$ , $Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS.CA)$ , $Fortis Inc (FTS.CA)$ , T, $Suncor Energy Inc (SU.CA)$ , $Enbridge Inc (ENB.CA)$ , and unfortunately $Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp (AQN.CA)$ . Over the last several years only CN and FTS have given me consistent returns. Recently SU and ENB are finally showing signs of life but all the other ones are...

$Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS.CA)$ this should be a good test. I expect some consolidation then a move higher up. Possible retrace to 68.
