Astoria Financial Corp (AF), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Astoria Federal, attracts retail deposit and invests those deposits, together with funds generated from operations, principal repayments on loans and securities and borrowings.

AF fits my three-ten criteria.
Not in a big way, but just enough to make me feel picking it as one of my long term holdings.
I like the fact that AF is currently 27% off its 52W high.

AF is 25% off its 52W high, but still approx. 90% up since its March 2009 low.
My kind of value play.

An under-valued conservatively run regional bank centered in wealthy suburbs of NYC (mostly Long Island). Its Strong management managed not to take government money. Real Estate portfolio is fairly healthy. Should return to $20-$30 range within several years.

Keeps on beating estimates as estimates go up. It is at 25% of mid 2008 already. When it proves stability it will run.

I'm a little premature with this one...because I'm waiting for them to halve their unsustainable dividend. Once they do that...watch it RIP to the upside.
