TRV: Bull or Bear?

The Travelers Remains Undervalued Graphic_rating_buy TRV

Filed under: Stocks to Buy, Travelers Companies Inc. (TRV)

Travelers (TRV) logoThe view in August argued that The Travelers (TRV), which I first wrote about on April 24, 2009, at a price of $30.50, was undervalued. That proved to be on the mark, as the stock rose out of a base near $50 to trade above $57 this fall.

However, the good news is that The Travelers pulled back a few bucks in November, creating still another opportunity risk-tolerant investors to establish a position in a quality insurer and earn an outsized gain.

Did you miss that April 2009 entry point with the The Travelers (TRV), which I first wrote about on April 24, 2009, at a price of $30.50?

Well, here's some good news: TRV has pulled back, slightly (and temporarily, according to my analysis), giving investors who can tolerate moderate-risk a chance to establish a position in a quality insurer and earn an out-sized gain.

Look for TRV to approach $70 by mid-2011, boosted by 2% to 4% premium revenue growth in 2010, as the insurance company takes advantage of new business opportunities. Pr...

In this market and economy it pays (literally) to have a few moderate-risk stocks in your portfolio that also have an chance for a decent upside.

The Travelers Companies (NYSE: TRV), is one, and that's why I'm Reiterating my by Buy rating for the company, first recommended on April 24, 2009 at a price of $39.50. If you bought TRV in April, you're up about 34%.

The insurance sector has had its share of woes, due to some companies dabbling in securities that perhaps they shouldn't have. But that does not mean there aren't bargains out there for moderate-risk investors, and with the aforementioned in mind, The Travelers Companies (NYSE: TRV) is worth a review.

Although both the underwriting and investment climates will remain a tough road up ahead, Wall Street has once again inordinately taken down a company's shares. The Travelers' actions to improve underwriting results and to capitalize on the flight-to-quality in proper...

6 Stock Picks for a Weak Market - Barron's Interview Graphic_rating_buy TRV
+77.37%
in 1821 days

Barron's interviews Legg Mason (LM) value investors Harry Cohen and Scott Glasser, whose Legg Mason Partners Appreciation outdid the S&P 500 by nine points over the past year, despite losing 0.69%.<!---->

They say the time to get bearish was a year ago -- now it's time to be cautious. Financials will not bottom until investors "start thinking in terms of absolute losses and really get scared." Energy, industrials, agriculture and materials - not financials - will lead the market higher, although it doesn't seem to have bottomed yet.
