I still own NYCB from shares I bought in 2004. Been a loser but I did not add and/or sell.

NYCB is the only bank I own so that's a positive for the portfolio.

FWIW, started a position in RTX in 9/2020 when it was tossed out of the DOW. They increased their dividend today and now +40% in just 7 months.
