They are poised to grow in Asia, having relo aged their CEO to Hong Kong. They're talking about bankers on motorcycles to service rural areas. If they deliver only half of what they're planning they'll be wildly successful. They have made inroads in Asia while others have had to pull out. I think they stand to reap large profits from their focus on China.

1 of the few financial stocks that continue to grow, and will do so in the future.

Inclined to be biased for this bank as they've treated me right as their client for the past couple of years. Must take into consideration that they are very spread worldwide, it's a great advantage.

HBC has over 10,000 offices throughout Europe, Asia, Middle East, North America and South America. As the the down turn eases,HBC will take advantage of it's foothold throughout the world.At 84%it's loss to deposit is the best of all global banks. It is in a prime position for future growth .

Should do okay with international interests

They have written a lot of bad mortgage loans. I see their name all the time in defaulted loans when I pull foreclosure data in mass

Financial stocks carry a P/E ratio of 22.4, and the so-called "recovery" has been especially strong in bank stocks. Therefore, I’m concentrating my shorting interest in the banking sector.
Recs
Transnational bank, mistakenly bought House Prime Lending in ~2001, but well "hedged" with world-wide holdings, so House loss not disasterous.
High profile in China (at least, Hong Kong) and Asia.
Has learned from its own and other cases of banking errors.
Has genuinely good man at the top. Believe it or not, ethical.

Great China holdings. One of the banks that will emerge in top form...

I am buying banks right now... the market will turn and the strong banks will eat the weak ones for huge profit.

Strong global financial institution. Should recover with the world economy. I like that it is 50% off 52 week high.

This company is a solid, historically savvy company. I believe they began in Hong Kong as the "Hongkong Shanghai Bank of Commerce" and since collapsed their name and extended their international presence. These guys know business and banking and INTERNATIONAL business. That is a bank everyone wants to work with!..... PLUS a dividend! Get in!

It was the last to drop and will be the last to recover. Their exposure was overblown. They were the first to come out take writedowns. Very we managed and CHina is doing fine for them
Recs
It's the bottom now.
Recs
They are split evenly across the three main continents. However, their US exposure is in the wrong sector and they'll see some credit issues with their European and Far Eastern clients in 09. A buy at $20.

still standing....

A solid financial pick. (Yes, there are solid banks)
Recs
OH NO I finally did it...meant to put UNDERPERFORM!This stocks still headed south and will be one of my worst!
Recs
If it doesn't crash and burn in 2009 it will recover nicely within the next few years
Recs
Will inevitably suffer the storm along with the pther banks. Although the yield is good, I won't take the risk until Q2...
