- Thursday, November 1, 2012, 8:02 AM Insurers will be on the hook for higher payouts to customers after the governors of NY, NJ, and CT (so far) rule they must treat Sandy as a tropical storm, rather than a hurricane. Insurance policies in coastal areas typically include a provision for a far higher deductible when damage occurs from a hurricane. 4 Comments [Financials]
- Tuesday, October 30, 2012, 3:42 AM Hurricane Sandy is still wreaking havoc over the Eastern Seaboard, but that's not stopped insurance experts from estimating how much it will cost. AIG (AIG) CEO Robert Benmosche says, "It will be Irene, plus or minus something," for his company, so a few hundred million. Disaster-research firm Kinetic Analysis and Eqecat estimate total economic damage of around $20B, including $5B-$10B of insured losses. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, Top Stories]
- Monday, October 29, 2012, 6:54 AM More on Loews' (L) Q3: Improved equity investment performance at CNA Financial drove the company's large Y/Y gain in profit. Diamond Offshore revenue and profit lower due to lower rig utilization during the quarter. Revenue in the Loews Hotel segment jumped 19.5% Y/Y to $98M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer]
- Monday, October 29, 2012, 6:16 AM Loews (L): Q3 EPS of $0.45. Revenue of $3.71B (+8.1% Y/Y). (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Financials]
- Monday, October 29, 2012, 3:08 AM With Hurricane Sandy making its way to the Eastern Seaboard, insurers such as Allstate (ALL) are preparing to send their rapid-response teams of claims specialists to assess the damage once the storm passes. The cost to insurers is likely to be less than it would have been in the past, as they've been raising home-insurance rates, tightening underwriting standards, and scaling back sales of policies in hurricane-prone areas. 2 Comments [U.S. Economy, Top Stories]
- Monday, October 29, 2012, 12:05 AM Notable earnings before Monday’s open: BWP, EDU, HRS, L, PCG, SNH, UDR Comment! [Earnings]

- Sunday, October 28, 2012, 2:38 AM Hurricane Sandy is projected to make landfall by Tuesday morning, after which it could combine with two winter weather systems and create a super "Frankenstorm." Experts warn that the damage could be greater than the $15B worth caused by Hurricane Irene last year. Hardware stores such as Home Depot (HD) are doing a brisk trade as people stock up on essentials, but oil refineries and insurers will probably get hit hard. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, Top Stories, Energy]
- Friday, August 17, 2012, 4:28 AM Boardwalk Pipeline Partners (BWP) and Boardwalk Pipelines Holding (BPHC), a unit of BWP's general partner, Loews Corp (L), form a JV to acquire pipeline company PL Midstream for $625M. The JV is acquiring PL Midstream from closely held PL Logistics, with the deal representing a foray into the natural gas liquids business. BWP will own 33% of the JV and BPHC 67%. (PR) Comment! [M&A, Energy]
- Tuesday, August 14, 2012, 12:55 PM Loews (L) declares $0.0625/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 0.62%. For shareholders of record Aug 31. Payable Sep 14. Ex-div date Aug 29. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
- Monday, July 30, 2012, 4:31 PM Loews (L -5.2%) tumbled today after the insurance company posted a decline in quarterly profit, hurt by impairment charges at 50%-owned Diamond Offshore (DO +0.7%), but Barron's views the dip in shares as a buying opportunity. The charges shouldn't come as a surprise, as oil companies have endured the shaky global growth and lower pricing in the past quarter. 2 Comments [Financials, Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Monday, July 30, 2012, 6:21 AM Leows (L): Q2 EPS of $0.14 may not be comparable to consensus of $0.75. Revenue of $3.36B (+34.7% Y/Y). (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Financials]

- Thursday, May 31, 2012, 12:31 PM Loews (L +0.3%) announces that it will buy a large hotel in California from CIM Group that will be rebranded into the Loews Hollywood Hotel. The company says the transaction marks the first acquisition under a strategy to double its portfolio of hotels to more than 30 over the next three to five years. Comment! [Consumer]
- Monday, April 30, 2012, 10:24 AM More on Loews (L +0.6%) Q1: Net profit attributable to Loews slips 3.2% to $367M as revenue rises 2%. A net profit increase of 6% to $226M at CNA Financial (CNA +3.2%) (see Q1), in which Loews owns 90%, was unable to totally offset weaker performances at Loews other holdings, including Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO). Comment! [Earnings, Financials]
