Insurance (diversified)

Article Abstract:

Insurance stocks have seemingly become more sensitive to interest rates in 1997, as many see these stocks as alternatives to bonds, but the impact may be less important than what observers believe. However, adverse reserves developments, along with poor auto insurance and workers' compensation lines results are putting pressure on margins. Expected industry consolidation has slowed activity in these stocks, but several are expected to perform well.

Insurance (diversified)

Article Abstract:

Stocks in the insurance industry have reached record high valuations and prices during the 1990s with the absence of any significant news. However, insurance companies may have to cover losses to the tobacco industry if the suit by the state attorney generals is settled. Profit margins are near record levels as loss trends have remained favorable, and this is expected to continue in 1997 and 1998. Consolidation is expected to continue, also.
