Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Hit or exceeded the predicted growth inside the window.
The thesis — published November 15, 2025
Several price signs point upward: the trend looks healthier, the recent average price is rising, and momentum is improving from low levels. This matches better company results. Recent news showed profit per share beat expectations and the dividend was confirmed. Our models see the shares as meaningfully undervalued. If rates settle, investment income and cash returns could lift the stock over the next three months. Watch rate swings and updates to insurance estimates.
Primary drivers
- Price action lines up positively, suggesting the uptrend can continue.
- Quarterly profit beat and steady dividend add confidence to the outlook.
- Recent updates and our valuation work point to real upside potential.
- Calmer interest rates can improve what the company earns on investments.
