Look for those with a strong regional presence who do most of their lending to flyover country. Look at FCF, CFG, ZION, KEY and others that do very traditional things like home loans in stable markets and provide capital to very traditional businesses. Boring but stable.

They also pay decent dividends, have EPS ratios under 10 and are trading at or near two year lows due to the double whammy of the Fed jacking up interest rates (costs them more to borrow money + fewer borrowers) and the fallout from SVB.

You won't make money on them quickly (unless you were lucky enough to grab a few shares yesterday), but they do give you a decent income stream while waiting for the rebound.
