Mentioned as a regional bank that is 'breaking out' as part of a potential theme where regional banks could outperform large banks, driven by M&A potential.

Used as a specific example of a successful regional bank M&A, where its stock hit $80 (a price not seen since 1998) on the day of its buyout, suggesting M&A opportunities in the sector.

David Tepper bought a new stake, betting against the regional banking crisis narrative.

Was acquired for a price that highlighted the stock's long-term underperformance since 1998, with the deal described as putting shareholders 'out of their misery'.

Benefits from the economic activity of undocumented workers who hold bank accounts, allowing the bank to 'make money off of the float' from a diverse customer base.

Highlighted as a financial institution with a much broader customer base than often perceived, including undocumented workers, suggesting deep market integration.

Alluded to in a recent M&A deal, which is viewed as a potentially positive sign and a possible start to a consolidation wave in the regional banking sector.
