Good company. Pays a dividend and is growing. PEG less than 1. Collect a dividend and ride the move up.

Found this company under the insurance tag. Sell all property insurance and casualty stocks, or see your portfolio bcome a casualty! Warren Buffett is negative on the sector and that's good enough for me. Financial sector s--t has to work iits way through the whole goose.

A solid balance sheet and a boring but steady business. Cannot continue to ignore performance. P/E of 5, and trading at 90% of book value.

Great long term play. P/E, PEG, and dividend are too good to pass up.

Undervalued!

Like many companies in the insurance industry, this stock seems extremely undervalued to me. At the same time, there IS warrant for caution as Aspen Insurance has significant exposure to both the hurricane-prone Gulf Coast, and earthquake-prone California. Everyone knows what happens when a major hurricane strikes; Aspen's earnings plummeted in 2005 due to claims resulting from Hurricanes Rita, Katrina, and Wilma.
However, since that fateful year, Aspen has continued to diversify and in 2006 posted EPS of $3.83 versus ($2.65) in 2005. This is an incredible rebound, and goes to show how successful a year free of significant hurricanes can be. All things considered, the current valuation of Aspen suggests that a bad hurricane season has ALREADY been priced in. When hurricanes end up striking the US, which they undoubtedly will, the short-term price may take a hit, but anything less than a Hurricane Katrina-like natural disaster will fail to compress the price for long. With a price to book value of under 1.0, it's a gamble I'm eager to take.
