even when this stock splits on Feb 20, the P/E ratio below 10 only tells me that they are working things out. If you are in currently, sell right after the split and you will come out with a 50 cent extra dividend

Member Avatar MaxProfit81 (< 20) Submitted: 4/28/2008 1:03:02 AM : Outperform Start Price: $20.89 SIGI Score: -5.59

It has been a slow and rough time for insurance providers, and though SIGI insurance is no different, its recent 13% drop in share price is. That was due to several things stemming from management and not so much from real world events. This company took a one time restructuring charge in February, along with higher short term cash positions to hedge against the financial markets volatility. As i see it, this company is taking all the necessary steps to not only safeguard its investments, but also to improve its infrastructure. If thats worth a 13% drop, then im in now on the cheap and ready for clear sailing ahead.
