Eastern Bankshares, Inc. (EBC)

Eastern Bankshares has been a somewhat mixed performer since my last update, trailing the broader regional bank space albeit having still returned a decent 8%. As expected, a wider net interest margin has fueled a nice jump in the bank's underlying profitability. Recent trends in credit quality are also encouraging. The deal to acquire HarborOne Bancorp is seen as materially boosting next year's EPS. Meanwhile, the stock only trades for around 8x the consensus 2026 estimate.
