Property and Casual Insurers, and Reinsurers Are Getting Cheap [view article]
I recently did some work on ALL, HIG, AIG, CINF and CB, from what I could see all of them traded at a P/B of 1.5 or better every year for the past ten. So, buying them at a P/B of around 1 should give you a 50% increase within 2 or 3 years.Not too shabby.

4-5 index etfs probably would do it as well. don't tell me you can keep track and properly analyze and follow all of your holdings. way too many.zero value added. Reply

Property and Casual Insurers, and Reinsurers Are Getting Cheap [view article]
Add to this the following two facts,first about 8000 homes are being foreclosed on daily and, two that their is major manipulation of the stocks price by internal forces who control it and you have the makings of an issue headed for single digit prices before all is said and done. For more information on the internal forces at work on this issue click on my site and read the documentation and also my reviews of this stock.Richard Reply

If that is your replacement list can we see the rest of what you currently own. At first glance it seems like you may toss the majority of your energy, financials, and tech holdings. Can we get a sector percentage to give some clarification? Here I will make your task much easier, stocks on your list I would hang on to would include: AA, AYR, BDK, BKS, CBI, CMI, COMS, CPB, CSCO, DD, DRYS, DUK, FCX, FTO, HELE, HNZ, HOC, HON, IPSU, IR, JCI, KCI, KMX, NVS, OSK, PAYX, PPC, PPG, PRU, RTN, SNY, TSO, TTC, TXT, VE, VZ, WAG, WY.

David, it's nice to hear you are in agreement. Actually, I have been in dry-bulk for a while, and bought NM because they bought a port terminal with grain silos in Uruguay. Its heavily asset-based, even if heavily leveraged, but I favor asset based equities. The Uruguay purchase, and they are keeping the previous owners on-board, is another key factor that really sets NM apart from the other dry-bulk shippers. BTW - I invest only in dry-bulk. Less risk of environmental disasters than tankers.On Jul 07 10:04 AM David White wrote:

NM is a good bet. It has excellent value. It has an extremely low PE and FPE. It also has an excellent Price to Book value ratio. Further it has both a new fleet in South America (for the river traffic mostly) which is supposed to begin adding 35% to EBITDA beginning in the 4th quarter of this year. It got pushed further downward in the recent market move in that direction, so it is an excellent buy now. ReplyReplacement Candidates for David Merkel's Portfolio: From AA to ZZ [view article]
