Bankrupt banks in the US are selling for somewhere between 1 and 2% of deposits. So why pay 5.8% of deposits for Soveriegn??

Don't know anything about STD, but it must have some reason to overpay for distressed balance sheet in early October.

In his The High Income Alert, he asserts, "However, not all banks are created (or run) equal." Here, he reviews Spain’s Banco Santander (NYSE: STD)."

"While many U.S. financial institutions are crying the subprime blues, Santander could hardly be healthier.

Like their first quarter result. Good growth coming from Latin America. A slowing economy in Britain & Europe / possible implosion of a property bubble in Britain / Europe are the concerns.

Banco Santander has no write down related to sub-prime mortgage in the US. It is one of the best bank you want to own in this banking crisis. Its going to benefits from its business in Latin America this year.

First quarter profits increase 22%. Recommend adding the shares on weakness, especially when it is drags down by negative news of other banks.
