2013-06-17 PAST TOP PICK Colin Stewart

(Top Pick Aug 10/12, Up 38.16%) It was a good insurance company.  They got rid of some of their derivatives and was trading well below tangible book value.  It had fallen out of favour with investors.  He took profits.

2013-06-10 COMMENT Ross Healy

A recovering US financial that went through the wringer and like all US financials, the more it goes on without any problems, the more it slowly oozes upwards. He thinks that as long as the market keeps on moving, this will keep on moving too. Banks and this company are quite cheap but the ROE never recovered the highs of where they were before.

2013-05-31 COMMENT Gavin Graham

Over the last couple of years, the management that was put in has done a good job. Has a major exposure in emerging markets and has a lot of nice businesses. If you like the insurance industry, this is one you might want to enter.

2013-02-21 TOP PICK Fabrice Taylor

Assets are mostly bonds, some stocks and cash. If you add it up and subtract the liabilities, you could sell everything today and give investors a very big return. Discount to book is roughly 45%. He is looking at a 35% return.

Relatively new one on his Watch list. Have had all kinds of problems. Expects there will be a certain gestation period for him to get to know it better.

2012-11-21 BUY Gordon Reid

Recently bought.  Government reduced ownership down to 15%.  He thought that was a very good entry point.  It has dropped because of Sandy.  Trades at a very attractive multiple and a good opportunity for investors.

2012-10-24 TOP PICK Gordon Reid

Sees this as a completely new company. Has become a very much plain-vanilla, property and casualty company. U.S. Treasury had a big stake in it and what interested him is that in September they paid down a big piece of that so it is now only a 15% holder. Expect that in 2013 the government will be completely out of it. Trading at about 10X earnings. Have a very large deferred tax asset, which he thinks is very important. Once the government is out of it he expects to see renewed dividends and stock buybacks.

2012-08-10 TOP PICK Colin Stewart

Big insurance company with a lot of bad assets through the financial crisis. Government had to bail them out but today it is wildly different. They've cleaned up their balance sheets so their assets are in much better shape. Because they have been raising a lot of cash, their core insurance businesses have been very profitable and have been able to gradually buy back the government's stake. Trades at only half of BV.

2010-12-30 SPECULATIVE BUY Jim Huang A lot of people thought it would go to zero. AIG had some really solid assets. It is still a long way back to what it used to be. They are making a lot of progress. This is for very high-risk clients only.

2009-11-30 SELL John Zechner Can't see a real recovery coming in this one. Still need to raise more capital as well as paying back the money loaned to them by the government. There will be more dilution. A lot of internal problems.
