Despite high non performing loans portfolio, leverage is only 11 times equity. It is much higher for typical US banks. It has much better underlying assets, of which it can usually recover full value of its loans at fire sale prices. Additionally, there is some extra money tucked away in the holding company which can be used for these rainy days.
If it is able to stay afloat look for this company to trade back to book value.

Bank holding ... in this market? Shorting for a little while, then i'll kill it. Not in my usual long-term pickings but this one's too easy not to.

Management owns over half of the stock and has successfully followed unconventional strategies for decades. It's high-risk but it's now priced for catastrophe.

The market has over-reacted to housing woes in this case. The bank is well funded, well managed, and has focused on commercial loans in the Luxury Condo, Apartment, and Office space market within major urban centers. These markets, although not immune to the real estate downturn, are the strongest, and most resilient.
This bank is in no genuine danger of failing - This stock got spun well below it's actual value, and should see upgrades based on price shortly.

New construction projects may seem exposed for the moment, but foreign investments will pick up in former hot markets now on the cheap; key Miami and Las Vegas.
Look at the price to book value ratio - real assets - not CDOs.

I believe they have what it takes to weather this storm. Yes, they are heavily exposed to some tough markets. However, financials are strong (considering the circumstances), mgmt team is very much vested in this company for the long haul.
