One of the best management teams in the business. Premiums written have gone up, pricing is firming in some lines of business and the company should take market share from weak firms. In the second quarter, profits rose year over year and book value increased about 2%. The dividend was just raised by 7%. The stock sells at book value and on a trailing PER of 10x. Going forward, the company is expected to earn $7.56 this year, putting the stock on a PER of 5.8x. It is quite reasonable to expect the stock to trade on at least 1.5x book value which equates to a a price of about $64 or a PER of 8.5 forward earnings. I think the stock could sell on 10x earnings putting it at $75. Thus we get a potential 50% to 70% return. The stock has really done nothing compared to others. I think we could get there in a year to two years.

the change in earnings over each of the last four quarters and the current quarter estimate shows strong acceleration in the quarterly growth rates, which should lead to a improvement in earnings growth.
