Equity-to Assets ratio is strong at around 14. Their non-performing assets is below 1%. The book value estimates this stock at around $27! Plus, S & L's pay dividends, which is always a positive.

This stalwart regional bank got dragged down in the muck by its bigger cousins during this recession, which happened to coincide with an acquisition that gave BHLB some heartburn. The stock has slipped over the past year as the firm has focused on digesting it's recent acquisition and getting over some pretty nasty write downs. However, with those days behind the company it is well positioned to be a performer as long as no more toxic assets are suddenly revealed.

In anticipation of the eventual rebound of the financial sector. A little early for bottom feeding, but I am just indiscriminately putting all stocks that are tagged S&L.
