RE: "Over the years, I have a less than 50% success ratio bottom
fishing financial (and REIT) stocks."

Unfortunately, bottom fishing is my real sucker spot. Consider yourself lucky to approach 50% success ratio for bottom fishing, mine is probably much lower. Yes, there are cases where I hit a home run, but losses associated with my "horror stories" far outweigh the successes.

For example, check out this one:

Seventeen years of dropping. Tough to pick the bottom here.

Best wishes,
