Spanish banks like Santander [STD  Loading...      ()   ] may be looking to acquire U.S. regional banks in the south and Midwest, Cramer said, citing his own sources, on Wednesday’s Stop Trading!.

First Horizon [FHN  Loading...      ()   ], Huntington [HBAN  Loading...      ()   ], Whitney [WTNY  Loading...      ()   ] and Synovus [SNV  Loading...      ()   ] are all cheaper because of the inversion of the yield curve and any one of them could be poised to be taken over by the Spanish, who are profiting from a good market and strong currency, Cramer said.

Cramer doesn’t believe any of those four banks are particularly well-run organizations, so if a foreign player – enticed by the weak dollar, Fed easing and a new deposit base – came along to clean things up, “it wouldn’t shock me,” he said.
