The S&P/TSX Bank Index is up 18 per cent since early August. That’s without dividends but includes TD’s volatility and meagre 2.3 per cent return for the period. The broad strength in the sector has occurred despite an operating backdrop characterized by deteriorating credit fundamentals and sluggish loan growth, according to Mr. Grauman.

The analyst believes the current rally is justified despite the potential for near-term volatility. He believes that markets are looking through upcoming loan loss provisions and focusing instead on bank management forecasts for better conditions in 2026.
