ALEXANDRIA, VA (May 5, 1998) -- We'll take a day off from doing spreadsheet definitions to add some more data to the mix. Last week when I introduced Regions Financial (Nasdaq: RGBK), I didn't include the entire spreadsheet on the company. I did include some demographics from the regions in which the company operates, but I didn't include the same comprehensive spreadsheet data that I provided for U.S. Bancorp and that I will provide for all the companies that we will review. So, without further ado, here's the Regions information (remember, the Spreadsheet Guide is here to help and there's also the Glossary to help you along the way.
