At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +25.42% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through November 1, 2021. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations.

The Travelers Companies, Inc.
Travelers boasts a strong market position as one of the leading writers of auto and homeowners’ insurance and commercial U.S. property-casualty insurance with impressive inorganic growth story. It has been generating sufficient capital and prudently using it to boost shareholders’ value and pursue growth initiatives. Solid retention and positive renewal rate change are the positives. With the rising interest rate environment, Travelers expects $20-$25 million higher after-tax net investment income on a quarterly basis in 2019. However, exposure to catastrophe loss remains headwind for underwriting results. Shares of Travelers have underperformed the industry year to date. Also, the Zacks Consensus estimate for 2018 moved south by one cent in the last seven days. Travelers is set to report third-quarter results on Oct 18. A Zacks Rank #3 and Earnings ESP of -2.12% makes positive surprise prediction difficult.
