Switch from Canadian insurers to MET? Hit a new high today. Likes it. Financials are at a historical discount. Likes banks, insurers and diversified financials. He wouldn't switch, as some Canadian valuations are quite cheap. Nice dividend of 2.6%.

Model price of $87.26, 18% upside. Market really liked its write down on balance sheet or spinoff. Likes it here. Turned itself around. Will probably go to $80, and he'll evaluate it there.

TOP PICK

Metlife(MET-N)

27/09/2022
Metlife
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly This world leader in insurance and benefits is a TOP PICK. The company just announced a deal along with PRU to assume the $16 billion pension obligation of IBM -- right up its alley. We like the value here as the company is trading under book value, just beat analyst earnings expectations, and is projected to trade 7x earnings. It has managed to increase cash reserves, while aggressively retiring debt and buying back shares. Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 50% of cash flow. We recommend placing a stop loss at $52.50, looking to achieve $77 -- upside potential of 25%. Yield 3.2% (Analysts’ price target is $77.25)

The insurers have been in fire, like MetLife. He believes rates will go higher, so definitely stick with them.

It's fine, but he does not likes financials (or energy). He just likes MET's yield and that's it.

AIG-N vs. MET-N. AIG-N has been recapitalizing since the disaster of the financial crisis. MET-N did not suffer these issues. The life business is in pretty decent shape but he prefers Canadian lifecos. (Analysts’ price target is $55.57)

It’s pretty cheap, trading at 8.1 times. Their earnings in July were double year over year and beat expectations. They are growing globally and it’s a safe name with a low valuation. Couldn’t go wrong with this choice in the long term.

MET vs. BAC. Dynamics of the two are different, so hard to compare. FMV potential of both is huge. But the market won't go, because interest rates are falling. Aren't any drivers to escalate earnings. Very cheap, but who knows when they're going to pop? (Analysts’ price target is $53.19)

The balance sheet is impaired and there should be write-offs, which he hasn't seen. He sees 32% upside with a $64 model price, but he'd be happy seeing this at $53.80. He would recommend this stock above this price. He has recommended MET before, but MET just can't get going. The balance sheet is ugly. Also, if interest rates fall to zero, all insurance companies will get hit.

(A Top Pick Mar 29/18, Up 3%) Slow or flar growth this and next year, but they are buying back stock. He sees 9% EPS growth this year. Their US retirement portfolio has been doing well. It's cheap at 8x PE and paying almost a 4% dividend. It's been stagnant for many years, but it has tailwinds of lower taxes and volume growth. They're growing in Asia and Europe.

Metlife vs. Prudential vs US banks Both are high quality and international. Strong. He doesn't love lifecos now, because there's a lot going on in health, such as the prevalance of diabetes. He wants to see higher interest rates which can benefit lifecos. As for banks, he'd stay away. The rates and yield curve have flattened. Met are doing the right thing, like a nice dividend and a big share buybacks. It isn't expensive and doing 10% earnings growth, but there are greener pastures elsewhere.

Insurance companies are trading below their lower benchmarks -- making him think there are issues with their balance sheets especially in a deflationary recession environment. This could lead to lower short term rates, which could impair their earnings. He would be cautious going forward for all insurance companies.
