Intact Financial Corporation (IFC-T) has received mixed reviews from industry experts. Some analysts highlight the company's strong fundamentals and potential for growth, particularly in a rising interest rate environment, viewing it as a long-term hold despite recent market fluctuations. The stock, however, is noted to be trading below its 200-day moving average, indicating a downward trend, and some experts caution that growth has plateaued, making it less attractive compared to peers. Valuations vary, with opinions suggesting the company is either fairly valued or slightly overvalued, yet still offering a decent yield. Overall, while it appears to have solid management and position within the P&C insurance sector, there are concerns regarding future profitability and competitive pricing pressures.

HOLD

Property and casualty insurance. Stock price has gone nowhere for most of last year. Had a couple of good years. Very well run company.

DON'T BUY

Prefers the parent company, ING Groep NV (ING-N). It was hot in the beginning, but hasn't done much lately. With the parent company, you get a bigger spread of business.

COMMENT

Doesn’t like its dual class stock. They’ve done exceptionally well.

DON'T BUY

Have had a great run since going public. Earnings continue to beat expectations. Think the cycle is slowing down a little, so is getting a little leery.

HOLD

This is an asset of tremendous quality. Easily the most aggressive acquisition philosophy of the banks. Keep as a long-term investment.

BUY

Has been going sideways as have been most of the Canadian banks because we are going through a change of rising interest rates. Nothing wrong with owning this, you just have to have a longer time horizon.

SELL

Has been very surprised at how well it has hung in here. Haven't had the economic downturn yet that necessitates the tightening and thinks that is still coming. This would give you another leg down.

HOLD

A very strong, progressive pursuer of acquisitions. Expects it to continue to be brilliantly managed.

DON'T BUY

Have made some very successful acquisitions. With this stock, you have to count on acquisitions. Fully valued.

HOLD

Probably has the best upside of all the Canadian insurers and banks. His fair market value is about $70. Stock has been behaving quite nicely. Well run organisation.

DON'T BUY

His model price is $59.49 so it is not mispriced.

BUY

A cyclical market. Will go into a downturn at some point, but for now they have done better than what has been expected. Valuation is not too bad. Could be doing an acquisition soon.

TOP PICK

The biggest property/casualty company in Canada. Consistently makes money on their insurance. Have a lot of distribution channels. Just raised their dividend.

DON'T BUY

The whole story here is growth and consolidation. Did some amazing acquisitions and were able to pull the costs out but it's already reflecting the next acquisition.

BUY

The property/casualty industry is fragmented and they are one of the leaders in consolidating that business. An excellent company.
