I'm looking at either CIBC and BNS right now. Just can't decide if I
should wait for a new 52 week low or buy and forget about it. Who has
the crystal ball today??

Too early. Have been sitting patiently waiting for BMO to bottom, it
seems to have the most downside vs upside and pays a good div.
BNS is a sell as it appears about to buy into a US bank (IMO a big
mistake, US financials are in big trouble).
IF I HAD TO BUY, IF I HAD TO PLACE CASH WITH A GUN TO MY
HEAD. . . .it would be Canadian Western Bank as it has huge upside
via the oilsands projects. CWB.TO and also trade on the OTCBB.

Why not just use your investment to short sell C or ETFC ???

Well I like TD usually. But of the last few weeks my friends have been
gorging on ING-TO (Class B bank in Canada, Dutch isn't it?). Much to
their amusement. The reason I was told, "No subprime mortgage exposure,
yet the price took a large hit for no fundamental reason." I think TD
is actually sitting pretty also.

TD just closed a deal on a regional US bank so it now has sub prime
cast upon it. It was/is questionable announced at a top in
financials
that may bite the backside.

ING.TO is part of the dutch banking/insurance giant. Dutch invented
stocks, banking and commerce &, methinks, insurance.

Headquarters in the Netherlands, most of the business done elsewhere.
