M&T Bank Corp (MTB)

This met a high level screen to indicate a buy and strong outperform against its peers (other tickers in its industry). My 1st version of this spreadsheet devles deep into the company's balnace sheet and recent income statements, combined with other relevant price data for the company including insider/institutional holdings, short interest, debt levels, etc.
Testing capabilities of this 1st version of my automated, valuation spreadhseet matched with my personal criteria and see how it holds up.

good numbers on this stock and a fat dividend. when the dust clears from the recession this will be a winner.

If the dividend holds this is a 6% yeild on a company in the BRK portfolio.

The banking taint will wear off and MTB shares will rise again.

Another buffet owned bank stock. He's done the research, I will pick with him.

I won't pretend to know much, but I'll share what I do know:

Comprises just under one percent of Berkshire Hathaway's holdings, Buffett is buying, P/E below 8 after turning a profit last quarter, high dividend, conservative management, expanding to the mid-Atlantic region, plenty of growth room at a $4 billion market cap. Am I missing something? Seems like a great buy to me (my money is where my mouth is).

Just look at their balance sheet and 2008 net PROFIT!!

The chart looks nasty so it must be time to SLOWLY start buying even though we arent at the bottom yet.

Just a lucky dummy on 504 but feel this one has a good BV per share and not many shorts willing to pay back $2.80 dividends.

M&T Bank is and always will be a Buffalo based bank and employs only here in the USA and does not outsource for the sake of cheaper labor.

With that said, because M&T Bank is a Regional local bank with strong roots to the communities for which they have a footprint in they will remain strong and viable.

These economic conditions will surely rebound. Nothing happens overnight and the customers and the employees will continue to work hard and continue to make M&T Bank one of the best regional banks in the nation.

Gotta like this stock, particularly considering its competitors are falling like flies! Well positioned as the financial sector comes out of its doldrums. This one is as good a buy now as it was 6 months ago, perhaps better!

Conservative approach to lending and limited exposure to foreclosure markets has allowed MTB to remain above the current economic frays.

One of Buffett's major holdings.

Yeah--Yeah I know...it's a bank. But when I wait for the very bottom, that's usually what I get. Oldpbass

solid financial company, pummeled by industry assocation

Way too much upside for this regional powerhouse. While the big boys are smarting banks like MTB are sitting fat.

Buffet Stock, fair price

I used to work for them under First National Bank of MD and Allfirst bank (when Rusnack traded the bank into ruins by betting against the yen). M & T stinks, poor service and employees who are not very knowledgeable. Great mix for NY and Balto./DC markets.

this is a sure fire winner put your dollars on a front funner.
