SLF vs. MFC MFC is the trading stock vs. SLF is the holding stock (more than a year). Long-term, SLF has a smooth chart, and MFC has been jumpy--but you can make money on those big swings.

Trading at 10 x earnings with 10-1% growth. Dividend yield is 3.9%. 10% of the revenues come from Asia. Very leveraged to what happens in the equity markets. Watch where it stands to the 200-day moving average.

It should be going higher. We are seeing a period of rising interest rates which the lifecos should benefit from. There is a reverse head and shoulder pattern. It is very bullish. It should test at $51/52. Buyers are stepping in to accumulate the stock. It is poised for further upside in 20/21.

They've done well in recent years by being conservative and taking little risk in some of their businesses. That's resulted in good dividends and earnings that aren't as volatile as their peers. However, their growth isn't as strong. Asian has been a bright spot for them. Overall, it's a decent company and it's safe in a volatile market, but this isn't the highest growth stock around.

Is China hurting MFC-T? He owned MFC-T going into the 2008 crisis. But when the management announced they had taken on undue risk, he exited. They have never really reemerged from this. They were too exposed to equity markets back then, and decided to exit equities just as the market rallied to all time highs. He thinks there are better opportunities out there -- like SLF-T.

(A Top Pick Dec 15/18, Down 5%) They are expanding insurance operations in Asia. They have excess capital of $2.3 billion. They could do an acquisition or buy back shares. Extremely well run so he continues to like it and hold it.

Had been best performing Canadian lifeco. But it's fallen out of bed, nothing is sacred in this market. Support around $40, and it's close now. Will probably bounce back, but needs to firmly break past trend line before he can call it an uptrend again.

A trend around $56 earlier this year. The other level is the current $45 range. The market is stepping in now for all lifecos. SLF just had a sudden move bouncing up from $43 as buyers come in. The $45 level is solid.

The lifecos are attractive after this correction. Solid businesses. SLF has a big U.S. asset management operation. But she prefers (and owns) MFC which has a better valuation. In the past. SLF's earnings have outgrown MFC's, but MFC's should outpace SLF's going forward. MFC trades at a discount to SLF.

SLF-T vs. MET-N. He prefers Sunlife (SLF-T). It is higher quality and more defensive. Also they are down with the sector. There is more competition in the US vs. Canada.

Largest foreign insurer in India. Great global assets, conservatively managed. Earnings growing at 12-14% for next couple of years. Premier, best run Canadian insurer. Great dividend yield and growing. Compelling investment.

Reasonable dividend, though not as good as the banks. If you want a financial outside of the banks, this would be his choice in the space. Yield is just over 4%.

They are still guiding for 8-10% earnings growth. They are stable. They should be able to grow the dividend 4-5% a year. It is off along with the market. This and MFC-T are global companies now. MFC-T looks cheaper so he would buy that over SLF-T, which is trading at a 10% premium to its market multiple. Don't sell it.
