Prior to some shady dealings with W Holdings and Doral, this bank corporation was a $32.00 stock. During the downfall of almost all of the banks, FBP did drop down considerably, partly due to the SEC investigation which followed the violations by the two mortgage companies and partly due to the economy. However, this bank Never skiipped a beat with paying its dividends, nor was it sanctioned by the SEC for any wrongdoing. I think that once BANKS in general start gaining strength, this bank will SHINE. I hold in excess of 24K shares and this is one of the few financial stocks which I have NEVER been behind on since I started purchasing their shares about 19 years ago.
