My Notes

• value - The 0.9x price-to-book ratio attracts deep value investors betting on mean reversion in profitability or M&A takeout premium.
• High sensitivity with complex dynamics.
• Watch on earnings: Federal Funds Rate and forward guidance from FOMC meetings - directly impacts NIM trajectory, 10-year Treasury yield and yield curve shape - affects long-term loan pricing and securities portfolio valuation, Michigan unemployment rate and regional manufacturing activity - leading indicators for loan demand and credit quality.
