Stock that has beat the S&P 500 most of 2008 and insiders own more than 10 percent of the stock.

Relatively low ROA and ROE community bank holding company doesn't seem cheap at 30x forward earnings - seller around $14 after recent price strength.

I simply used the screener to identify 1-star companies with the highest 52-week gain. The 1-star rating should mean they are bad companies and the 52-week gain should mean they are overpriced. We’ll see how it works!

Solid, conservative bank with a very good share of local lending market. Very little - or no exposure to sub-prime mortgages. Bank's service area is close to New York City and northern New Jersey and is growing in population.

In anticipation of the eventual rebound of the financial sector. A little early for bottom feeding, but I am just indiscriminately putting all stocks that are tagged S&L.
