BUY

The John Hancock acquisition has turned out to be a very good one. Attractive at this price.

BUY

Insurance companies are somewhat interest sensitive, but long term interst rates seem to be stable which is helping them. Prefers insurance companies to banks right now. Good international growth.

Would buy it up to $57. Good dividend. John Hancock acquisition has gone well. Good growth in Asia.

Favourite insurance company. Has the best management. Likes their international exposure, especially the far east.

BUY

Has been one of his favourites for the past couple of years. Scored very high on his analytical approach of "cash flow return on enterprise value", and continues to score high. John Hancock integration has gone very well.

BUY

His favourite financial stock. Better than the banks. Has the best management in North America. John Hancock merger was excellent. Have a growing exposure in the far east. The company is under leveraged. Expects there will be a major US merger soon.

One of his favourite financials. Has great exposure overseas which is a terrific growth opportunity. John Hancock was a good acquisition into the US. Probably the best managed insurance company in North America.

TOP PICK

Has marked time on ROE since the Hancock acquisition. The ROE level is now 12% and is starting to rise at a rate which implies that you are going to see more positive earnings surprises going forward. Coming into a period where interest rates are stable to downward and this is an interest sensitive name.

DON'T BUY

Has a model price of $54.33 which is a negative differential of 17%. Could go a little higher, but thinks it's fully valued here.

BUY

Management is particularily driven and feels that the John Hancock acquisition is going to be particularily good.

BUY

Life companies have suffered with all the fears of higher interest rates. His view is that interest rates are not going up so fast or so far as had been thought before and probably all the life companies are pretty good Buys right now including Power Group (POW-T) Sun Life (SLF-T) and Manulife.
