HomeDividends AnalysisDividend IdeasFinancialsSummaryBank of Nova Scotia gets its buy rating from 2023 reaffirmed, as my high confidence in the bullish case continues despite share price growth lately. Positive strengths are the A-level investment-grade rating, improving margins and EPS trends, attractive price forecast pointing to upside, and dividend safety. A challenge is this bank is in a highly competitive sector with other major banking brands, both in the US and Canada, who compete for banking clients. This sector can be prone not only to interest rate risk but also recession risk.
