Anybody here following/own First Niagara Financial (FNFG). Obviously not in a go to place for the moment. However, yields north of 6%, and the dividend has been raised consistently, albeit slowly and in small increments, since 2003. It was dropped in 2002, do not know the reason for that.
I do know the company has acquired branches from HSBC in western and upstate NY, as well as making other strategic acquisitions throughout the northeast.
A very quick scan has indicated it is a well run bank, non performing loans at 3/31 were at .75%.
