Zenith National Insurance Corp. (ZNT)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company through its wholly owned subsidiaries Zenith Insurance Company and ZNAT Insurance Company, operates as an insurance company in the United States.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Just opened a position in this today at $36.50. All the numbers looked great to me. ROA and ROI both over 20%...5.5% yield...forward PE of 13 on analyst estimates have this at a 65% return. Cash flow triple the current dividend pointing to more dividend raises.

From my HiYield-Sane screen. 5.8% yield that seems real.

One of the best run Workers' Compensation specialist companies in the country - their loss ratios are the envy of the rest of the national carriers.

I simply used the screener to find all of the 5 star stocks with the greatest 52-week losses. 5 stars should make them good picks and the high 52-week loss should make them cheap. We’ll see how it works!

Low p/e + high dividend; maybe not a sure thing but certainly a good bet.

Beat this Stock

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
