On Monday, I bought some RF on a hunch.....and I am glad I did. For the past year, RF had been underperforming some of my other bank stocks like HBAN but in the last couple of months its been doing better. I suspect that's because conditions in your part of the world are improving. Today, it outperformed my other bank stocks and was up 6.5% on no news but with only so so volume. Not withstanding the okay volume, I think its one to watch.
