On the CAPS new "Screener" I used 5 star stocks, low PE, low PB as criteria, and surprise, surprise, an insurance company pops up. I like this little worker's comp insurance company for it's near book value market cap and relatively low price to earnings ratios. I like how the company focuses on only one type of insurance, worker's comp, I wonder if this makes it potential target for buy out? Lastly, check out the long term growth in book value, that characteristic is probably most important of all in an insurance company.
