BANK OF AMERICA CORP /DE/ vs TORONTO DOMINION BANK, two Banks—Regional stocks. A side-by-side on valuation, growth, margins, returns, and what each price is betting.
Bank of America and TD are both deposit franchises first, but the resemblance ends at the return line: TD earns 17.4% on equity, BofA 10.6%, the widest quality gap among the continent's giant banks, earned through Canadian oligopoly economics plus a US retail network. TD's 28.3% net margin edges BofA's 27.6%; returns on assets, 1.04% against 0.91%, agree. The market prices the stronger earner CHEAPER, 13.2 times against 14.3, a residue of TD's US regulatory penalties still discounting a franchise that out-earns its peer group. BofA shows the 1.9% dividend. The pair is a quality inversion wearing a compliance story; those tend to expire.
