Is First Citizens BancShares ($FCNCA) Quietly Engineering a Banking Empire No One Saw Coming?
Ever wonder why banks, often seen as slow-moving giants, can sometimes generate wealth faster than tech stocks? It’s a puzzle that caught my eye recently while digging through Twitter feeds obsessing over the SPDR® S&P® Regional Banking ETF ($KRE). Enter Victaurs—a newsletter writer who’s turned banking fundamentals into poetic wisdom. Tweets like “ROTCE tells you the return. TBVPS tells you the discipline. Put them together and you get the real compounding engine” sparked my curiosity. Numbers can be dry, but what if we peeled back the layers and actually saw a bank’s compounding power in action?
