I'd like to throw out another Ohio company that deserves some attention, IMO. (to go along with LANC, BOBE, ANF some other Ohio cos. mentioned here).

FMER, a regional bank, looks good (along with a lot of other banks). But the reason why I like them is that historically they've grown through acquisition, which has hurt them for the past 12 months or so. As I understand it, one of the major shareholders of an acquired bank (Security First, I think) had been dumping a lot of shares. Which I think is somewhat typical in mergers since the seller is usually looking for a way to get out of the business.

I think that most of the selling is done, and they have worked out most of the kinks from the 98 & 99 mergers. I expect earnings to growth nicely in 2000 and 2001.
