This summary was created by AI, based on 27 opinions in the last 12 months.

Manulife Financial (MFC) has received mixed reviews from various experts, highlighting both its strengths and concerns. Many praise the company for its solid performance in Asia and wealth management, coupled with a healthy dividend yield, making it an attractive income stock. However, some analysts express caution due to overvaluation, suggesting that MFC may be overbought, trading at over 2x book value with slow earnings growth of around 8-9%. While the stock is seen as a reasonable long-term holding, there are calls for potential buying opportunities during market pullbacks. The general sentiment reflects a wait-and-see approach given the mixed indicators and the overall health of the financial sector.

Feb 13, 2006
(A Top Pick Dec 5/05. Up 6.5%.) The most attractive life insurance company in North America. Still has a reasonable valuation. Has a huge cash hoard. Has the best exposure of any major North American insurance company to the far east, especially China.

Likes the John Hancock acquisition and thinks that as that is integrated over the next couple of years, you'll see above average earnings growth. Good international exposure. Will have higher earnings and dividend growth rates than the banks.
