At March 31, 2021, there were 81 securities—available-for-sale with unrealized losses, compared to 54 at December 31, 2020.  Management does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020 resulted from credit loss.  The decline in fair market value of these securities was generally due to changes in interest rates and changes in market-desired spreads subsequent to their purchase.

There were no securities—trading in a nonaccrual status at March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020.  Net unrealized holding gains of $59,000 were recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $4.6 million of net unrealized holding losses recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
