I can't say that I feel like I've missed out on much since thinking W.R. Berkley (NYSE:WRB) didn't look like a terrific bargain back in May of 2015.
While the shares did rise close to 20% from that article at one point
on takeover speculation, the net movement of 3% is more in keeping with
what I'd expected given the challenging conditions in the commercial
P&C market and W.R. Berkley's already-healthy valuation.
My basic sentiment on W.R. Berkley today is "same as it
ever was." The company has done a very good job of finding growth in a
challenging market, helped by niche/specialty market focus, good
underwriting, and its investment portfolio. I still believe that W.R.
Berkley can generate good earnings growth over the next five years, but
the stock looks like it is already priced for that sort of performance.
