National Bank Of Canada stock last year performed well for my Canadian portfolio. The returns were above average with a double-digit return. Like all Canadian Banks though, National Bank of Canada has pulled back dramaticaly since setting a new high on November 17 2014 of $55.50. The plunge in the stock stunned a lot of analysts and investors as National Bank of Canada is actually doing well and will probably walk away from the oil downturn, unscathed.
With a $2.00 annual dividend and trading at just 10.9 times price to earning which is lower than the larger banks, I have always found a lot to like about trading in National Bank of Canada stock.

Patience though is key, especially when it comes to trading Canadian options.
