Major US bank,
Comerica Incorporated (CMA), has completed its merger with
Fifth Third, becoming the 9th largest bank in the country, with shareholders being encouraged to swap into Fifth Third stock. The merger led to Comerica's delisting from the New York Stock Exchange and being dropped from both the S&P Composite 1500 and S&P Banks Select Industry Index. This has resulted in
holdings adjustments including Strs Ohio selling over 24,575 of their Comerica shares. The company has reported earnings for Q3 and Q4 2025, and the merger has prompted valuation and risk assessments. With the completion of the merger, it has been reported that the CEO of Comerica has exited his holdings. Despite a
class action lawsuit being filed against Comerica by Kaskela Law LLC, the merger has received positive responses from analysts such as Jim Cramer. The merger has expanded Fifth Third's geographic presence and scale, however, raised concerns over valuation.
Eric Teal has been named the new Chief Investment Officer.
