Hurricanes haven't destroyed the reinsurance business yet. Here's hoping they don't have any toxic waste on the balance sheet and we can get a few CAPS points from them.

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… More

Everest Re Group, LTD currently qualifies for my Stable Dividends screen, which has outperformed the S&P 500 by 16.6% per year since January 1, 2000. After posting a small loss in 2008, Everest Re is expected to finish 2009 with $12.56 per share in earnings and analysts expect the company to earn $11.96 per share in 2010. The company's balance sheet is sound. Despite all of this positive news, Everest Re is trading below its historical valuations. Current p/bv: 0.85. Five year median p/bv: 1.17. CAPS 3, Stockscouter 9.

Combined ratio below 90% for previous quarter and six month periods. Relatively quiet hurricane season so far. Insurance is cyclical and coming out of a rough market with significant competition. Once the johnny-come-lately's are thinned due to mis-pricing risk the sector will pick up. Someone posted Buffett is bearish on the sector- Buffett does not issue market calls. And BRK's primary provider of cash for investing is and has been float from insurers for decades. See also FFH and MKL.

There is less momentum, less volume, and less buying going on. We are in the last part of this rally.
