Value of the funds you chose go down . As long as you keep them the first 5 yrs.from purchase date.

Begging for attention. Slapped around for good reason, now has come to it's senses. They took the hit all at once and are still standing.

Insurance powerhouse that I believe was unfairly beaten down in the financials meltdown in late 2008, particularly with its business mix; wildcard is its investmnet side activities, of course, but I believe it might be inappropriately tarred with financials in this environment. Undervalued but volatile position. Don't particularly like the annual dividend structure, but also believes an opportunity for shorter term posiitons in the first few months of the calendar year. Long term value play for me.
Disclosure: Real money long position.

It hits the "bottom" and Obama is a good thing.

This company is beaten to strongly with the financial crisis. A shoulder-head-shoulder formation was built based on the chart in EUR. The shoulder line was broken in a dramtic way. There is a potential lift up to around 110 EUR.

HUGE insurance company beaten down in the last week for no other reason than general panic.

Mechanical Strategy: Every year (1) Take the 500 biggest stocks in the caps database (in terms of market cap) - (2) Pick those ten stocks with positive earnings whose price/book values are closest to 1.

Plus the Fundamentals, they have finally offloaded their unprofitable banking arm ,Dresdner Bank.

low PE, constant growth, nice dividend - can't miss; With more than 100 years of writing insurance in
Europe, Allianz is a well-known and trusted brand.
European governments are likely to privatize retirement
savings, and Allianz is positioned to win a share of this
business.
Allianz bought out the minority interest of its Italian
subsidiary (RAS), which gives it more exposure to the
Italian market, its second-largest.

Looks like a good investiment considering current market volitility.
Disclosure: I own no shares of this stock.

Allianz SE is one of the leading global financial services providers with interest ranging from insurance, banking to asset management.
Total revenues for the Allianz group in the year 2006 had risen to 101.1 billion euros with net income increasing 60% to 7 billion euros. Property and Casualty insurance finished on a positive note owing to its robust underwriting practices, less natural disasters and claims ratio improving. Despite unfavorable market conditions, the asset management business had performed well and achieved the target cost to income ratio of less than 80%
The foundation for banking business is strong in Europe and about one-third of the premium come from the region. Dresdner bank has got its one-millionth new clients from the insurance business and still seems to have a huge potential in the middle. Cross selling would be the future growth driver and is portraying itself as an integrated financial services provider.
The management has been allocating capital wisely and its decision to present life insurance results on Market Consistent Embedded Values (MCEV) basis rather than on a European Embedded Value (EEV) basis would help it post better profits than European Embedded Value method.
With the addition of Brazil, the BRIC countries remain a strategic growth market. Endorsing the same, Russian life insurance market is expected to be around 250 million Euros and India finished as the largest private insurer with 400,000 customers additions per month. In China, they are restricted to just life insurance in 4 provinces with a population of 208 million to serve. However they have positioned themselves well to capture the market when property and credit insurance are opened to foreign players
It has set to an ambitious target of 10% growth in operating profit till 2009 with growth targets for its individual business segments. Moreover the company believes in improving margins to achieve the same and all set for a double digit growth.
