    Despite his bullish calls on the bank sector, Dick Bove warns that the summer could prove a challenge to investors looking to follow his advice. Bove cautions of a "long hot summer" in which "the fundamentals of the banks would be quite good but the market will not be." The seasonal activity of the Fed is likely to cause the normal seasonal decline in stock prices," he warns, with continuous increases in bank earnings through the summer but no positive movement in bank stocks."

  • Remember when good old Dick was recommending LEH at $12 in August '08? Yeah.

  • I remember him hyping the hell out of C when it was around $20, on its way to $2-3 or whatever it ended up dipping to.

  • Ahhhh, Dick sits on the fence again. Bank stocks may go up and they may go down. Nice way to earn fees and not tick off your banking clients and contacts. But totally useless investment information.

  • "If my bank recommendations end up being 180 degrees wrong, it's really just a seasonal thing, not that I have no clue what I'm talking about or that I'm just a shill for the banks," Bove clarified.

    There. Fixed it for you.
