So we shouldn't buy 5th Third? I thought that the name, First Fifth Third National would be kind of cool

Wells fargo is far from unstable or in financial trouble. Furthermore, Wells would buy 5/3, not the other way around. WF is hitting it' profit goals. 5/3 is not.

First let me say that I don't work for Wells Fargo and that I have banked with them for many years. Like any financial insitution they will make a mistake from time to time like we all do. But I have always felt that my dealing with them have been very good and responsive.
