Intact Financial Corporation (IFC-T) has generally received positive reviews from experts, highlighting its strong management and solid fundamentals. While currently positioned as a leading property and casualty (P&C) insurer in Canada, sentiments reflect concerns over short-term revenue growth and stock performance relative to market expectations. Some analysts indicate that the stock may have reached an attractive entry point, particularly for long-term investors, despite its current trading below the 200-day moving average. Key factors such as interest rates, competitive pricing strategies, and potential market rotations weigh heavily on the outlook. Experts recommend a cautious approach, suggesting it could be a good opportunity for those willing to buy on dips or during broader market pullbacks.

CNA

TOP PICK

Went through a peculiar selling of most of its stock by the distressed parent bank in Holland at an amazing discount of 20%.company is at the beginning of the forthcoming property/casualty cycle because of hurricanes.

COMMENT

Largest property/casualty insurer in Canada. ING globally had some balance sheet challenges. Selling ING Canada was a way for them to raise $1.5 billion. Very well run operation. Because of the economy, there may be questions if they can get the same rates.

TOP PICK

One of the largest single property/casualty insurance companies in Canada. Had a bit of a downer with its investment portfolio but are currently very confident of moving back into an acquisition mode. Have excess capital so do not need to raise debt. Brilliantly run.

BUY

Has been a little bit stronger over the last little while. He has just added to his position.

HOLD

It has dropped off but so has its competitors. Well-financed company, good underwriting record.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick May 2,/08, Down 18% or 10% if you use his stop) Broke down below it’s support, so get out. If it rallies back above $34 sell then get back at that level later.

TOP PICK

Financials are bottoming out and turning around. Think they will add a lot to the TSX until the end of the summer. Chart shows a bit of a double bottom. $37.50 would be his stoploss.

DON'T BUY

This was a stock that was going lower long before the mortgage problems started. Can't see any growth here.

DON'T BUY

Property/casualty insurance division in Canada for the Dutch ING bank. The insurance cycle has not been that great for them. Also, investment returns have not been that great. Longer term, a good one to own, but in the near term he doesn't see a catalyst for it. If you own, try to sell on rallies.

COMMENT

The biggest property/casualty insurer in Canada. Long-term outlook is good. Near-term, margins have been under pressure. You may not see a lot of upside in the next 6 to 12 months but probably a good place to be looking out over 4 or 5 years.

SELL

(Market Call Minute)

TOP PICK

Property and Casualty insurance. A leader in Canada. Being a little speculative on the concept that parent ING may decide it doesn’t ant to be public. A good conservative Hold.

DON'T BUY

There wasn't much upside at $51. Valuation was okay, but growth was low.

WATCH

Fair market value has been calculated at $84, which means the stock is very cheap. Some risk at the $43 or $44 mark, but if it gets there it would be a BUY. Upside is $60.

BUY

Has been looking at a lot of the Property & Casualty insurers which have been having some losses. Doesn't think this is going to go on forever and this is getting into an area where it could be a buy.
