Insurer led by master investor Gayner trading at price-to-book multiple well below the 2.0 multiple that the company usually enjoys. Conservative management has significant investments in two of my other favorite stocks in the current environment: Bershire Hathaway and GE. Gayner should be able to find bargains in the current market chaos that will position this stock to outperform.
