Best regional bank. Held up fantastically during the bailout chaos. In a few years will be a prime target acquisition for the big nationals. The dividend is nice too.

Trading at a fantastic multiple, great debt control, fantastic revenue and earnings growth, and a very healthy dividend.

I think that once the merger is complete, we'll be looking at a $30-35 stock.
