Q: Good morning,
Just saw in my news feed that RY missed expectations. Means another blood bath for the banks? Should one wait before backing up the truck and loading up? How long should one wait for the dust to settle? I know RY,TD &BNS are your favorite picks.

If you can add a few sentences in the US banking sector,not would be appreciated.
Many thanks.
Mano.

Q: Fiera capital has held up relatively well and is recovering to over 10$.
I don't see it going much over 11$.
Love the dividend.
Cix on the other hand has been decimated,
And I think it has more upside, perhaps to the 22$ level.
Would you endorse a switch at this time?
Thank you.
