Story Ideas about SWOT analysis
One of the major threats listed on the SWOT analysis for Fifth Third Bank is forthcoming regulations in the Dodd-Frank bill. A reporter could try to interview people at the bank and ask what specifically they are concerned about. They could then follow up by trying to interview people in the government involved in financial regulation, and ask about the changes in the industry because of this bill. This threat is especially interesting for Fifth Third which has listed as one of its strengths that it had "nil exposure to exotic securities." I don't know much about financial regulation, but it seems like Fifth Third might actually fair better than other banks under new regulations since those exotic securities were a major problem in the 2008 stock market crash and ostensibly will be major targets in Dodd-Frank.
