Strongest & Weakest US Banks and Thrifts
Interesting report from Weiss Research:
The “X” List Report
http://www.moneyandmarkets.com/newsletter/103/StrongestandWeakestBanksandThrifts.pdf
It contains an extensive list of the strongest and weakest banks and thrifts in the United States. Compiled from FDIC’s Call Reports and OTS’ Thrift Financial Reports: All U.S. commercial banks, savings banks, S&Ls and other thrifts with total assets of $500 million or more and with a rating of B+ or higher.
The full report contains about 5 pages of strong banks, 5 pages of weak banks.

my problem with the data is that it relies on reported financials --(thus little things like level 3 assets)
so the analysis can only head south from here -not better
