re Bankinvestor site - blankmind you are right that the fundamental data for many stocks on the site is off. i don't mind, i would not relay on anything but SEC filings for research anyways. It is a convenient place to keep track of mutual thrift conversions and that part of the site is free. As i indicated before the book value of a 1st step thrift is a somewhat hypothetical value - you are calculated as if there were no dilution from the 2nd step conversion (which in a way is correct since for the 2nd step the price is basically set at market value) but i prefer to treat the fundamentals "pro forma" as if the 1st step conversion were occurring for 100% of the stock.
