The biggest U.S. banks can't participate in the coming round of bank mergers because they are approaching or exceed regulators' 10% limit on the share of deposits a bank can hold nationwide when making an acquisition. Bank of America (BAC) controls 13% of deposits; Wells Fargo (WFC), 11%; and JPMorgan Chase, 9%. Mid-tier banks such as U.S. Bancorp, PNC and BB&T aren't close to that limit, however. Good. BAC stinks. Its my house lender and they are messed up. Plan to sell it out of my IRA soon.
