BUY

The 4th-largest P&C insurer in the world. They do well underwriting and in investing as well. Their combined ratio is 86%, impressive. They also make money on their bond holdings. Berkshire Hathaway owns a large position. Also, CB is low-volatility and defensive.

TOP PICK

62% of premiums are in the US and the rest international, so they have global exposure. They are growing life insurance in Asia. They have a good track record in assessing risk, then generate investment income through a large bond portfolio and private equity investments. Berkshire announced a stake in CB earlier this year. Trades at a reasonable 12x forward PE.

PARTIAL BUY

Looks good right now, taking a pause. Chart looks great, now in a consolidation phase (very normal). Very tight trading range around $285-290. Touching $280, which is short-term support, a good sign for taking a position. Your exit strategy should kick in if drops below $275. Dividend is a bonus, so you can afford to hold before it goes up again.

Once it hits $300-310, you know it's going higher and can build on your position.

BUY

Based in US, but being a more international P&C insurer gives it lots of opportunities for growth. Excellent combined ratio. 

BUY

Clear channel of higher highs and higher lows from mid-2022. Upward trend in the 200-day MA is starting to accelerate. Sees 7-8% earnings growth. Not as exciting as NVDA, but a good financial name  to own. IFC is the comparable in Canada.

Likes this segment in P&C. Represents value. Will do well in falling interest rate environment, though some interest rate yields moving higher, which has affected this type of name. 

BUY

A number of P&C insurers in the US pulled back post-hurricane. Great run over last 18 months. Technically, not broken. Sector probably does pretty well going forward. Cream of the crop in the sector.

WAIT

It is trending the right way and has moved hard on the upside. He doesn't know the momentum indicators but it is off the trend line and then may pull back to the trend line for a buy so wait.

PAST TOP PICK

Trades at 14x PE. Is the biggest P&C insurer in the world and 4th insurer overall. Their combined ratio is around 80, so they have a high margin in their underwriting business. Investments are excellent, with 80% in  bonds enjoying strong returns. A predictable, safe business. They have pricing power. Catastrophes like hurricanes in the long run give insurers a chance to enhance revenues.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 14/23, Up 35%)

It is a global company and Berkshire took a position in it a few months ago. Fixed income at lower rates are rolling into fixed income at higher rates.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 13/23, Up 39%)

Still likes it. Leader. Excellent track record, led by really good management. Rising interest rates have been really good for their reinvestment rates. Popped in May, when BRK revealed its position. Will continue to do well long term.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 21/23, Up 22%)

Insurers have pricing power, good point in the cycle. Fabulous reputation by paying legit claims quickly. Combined ratio in mid-80s, so a high margin of profitability. Doing well on underwriting and investments in bonds.
