Ist es ratsam, jetzt noch mal nachzulegen ?
 

...diese Entscheidung kann dir keiner abnehmen!

Ich für meinen Teil habe auch während der zwischenzeitlichen Rücksetzer nicht verkauft, und werde dies auf längere Zeit nicht tun...

Wenn du wissen willst, von wo der HIG-Kurs kommt, so gehe zurück zu Antwort #83

Hallo Community,
die Hartford Fin. Services sind heute schwach (wie alle Finanztitel). Wie ist denn das einzustufen.?
P.S.:Bin kürzlich mit einem Trailing Stop Loss rausgeflogen und überlege wie es weitergehen kann.
Wie ist die Meinung.

Hartford Financial Services (HIG) is expected to report Q3 earnings after the market close today with a conference call scheduled for 8 am ET tomorrow.
Guidance

Analysts are looking for EPS of $1.11 on revenue of $6.22B. The consensus range is 62c-$1.65 for EPS, and revenue of $6.13B-$6.31B, according to First Call. Hartford Financial announced on September 29 that Liam McGee, a former president of Bank of America's (BAC) Consumer and Small Business Bank, would become Hartford's chairman and CEO, effective October 1. McGee replaced Ramani Ayer who announced in June that he would step down. Investors will want to know whether McGee plans to implement any strategic changes at Hartford.
Analyst Views

A UBS analyst appeared to respond favorably to the choice of McGee. On October 8 the firm resumed coverage of Hartford with a Buy rating, up from a Neutral previously. The firm set its target for the stock at $35. Hartford investors may be encouraged by the Q3 results of a number of other insurance companies. Travelers (TRV) and Progressive (PGR) reported better than expected Q3 results, while MetLife (MET) reported in-line EPS.

The Hartford Backs Bold New Plan To Help Women Recovering From Breast Cancer In All 50 States

Casting for Recovery launching campaign to add retreats in 23 states for women recovering from breast cancer.

While most nonprofit organizations are doing their best to simply survive the bad economy, one organization is launching a bold new campaign to provide two-and-a-half day retreats in all 50 states for women recovering from breast cancer.

Casting for Recovery, which currently hosts retreats in 27 states, will use funds provided by The Hartford Financial Services Group to add retreats in all of the 23 states it does not already serve, beginning with Florida, South Carolina, and New Mexico, where demand is acute.

Lori Simon, Casting for Recovery's executive director, says the organization has served more than 4,000 women since it was founded in 1996, but with more than 500 women being diagnosed with breast cancer every day, scores of women must be turned away from its retreats.

"We need to do everything we can to close the gap for women who need our support," Simon said. "Time and time again women tell us our retreats are the first good thing to happen to them since they were diagnosed. After enduring the devastating effects of breast cancer surgery and chemotherapy, women need a way forward. They, and their loved ones, need hope and support. That's where we come in and why "To Fish is to Hope" is our motto."

The Hartford has been the organization's lead sponsor since 2006. Connie Weaver, the company's senior vice president of marketing and communications, says of the relationship: "You need only hear one woman's story of how her life was changed by attending a retreat to know why we decided to become the organization's leading national supporter three years ago. It is a privilege to be a part of a process that enables a woman to move forward after breast cancer surgery and to continue the process of renewal."

Casting for Recovery was started by a breast surgeon who loved fly fishing and who recognized both the physical and emotional benefits the sport and its natural setting can provide to women in recovery. The retreats combine fly-fishing instruction and catch-and-release fishing with counseling and education to promote the healing process. The two-and-a-half day retreats are provided at no cost to participants.

Simon says her organization's goal is to offer retreats to women in all 50 states by 2015. To reach its goal, Casting for Recovery, which currently has more than 1,000 volunteers, will have to recruit a small army of new volunteers on the ground. But Simon is not worried about growing the ranks of new volunteers because, as she put it, "Breast cancer touches just about every family in America. So when the call goes out for volunteers, people from all walks of life step up."

The Hartford, which is celebrating its bicentennial in 2010, is also the founding sponsor of U.S. Paralympics, a nonprofit organization dedicated to recruiting and training elite athletes with physical disabilities. Weaver says all three organizations share what she calls an abilities philosophy, which encourages people with illnesses and physical disabilities to use their abilities to overcome life's challenges.

Hartford Financial Services Group Q1 2010 Earnings Call Transcript

April 30, 2010
http://seekingalpha.com/article/...rnings-call-transcript?source=feed

momentan nicht! investiert, Beobachtung wg. ggf. Wiedereinstieg...

Ist hier noch Leben im Forum? 
Meines Erachtens könnte dieses Invest für längerfristig orientierte Anleger sehr gute Gewinne einbringen. Ich vermute die Wirtschaft in den USA wird dieses Jahr stärker wachsen als erwartet und auch der Immobilienmarkt wird sich weiter erholen. Es ist schon gut zu sehen, wie der Verkauf von Häuser deutlich anzog etc. Wenn die Wirtschaft wieder besser läuft, gibt es wieder mehr Arbeitsplätze und die Menschen haben mehr Geld, oder geben es eher aus.

-> Vorallem in den USA wird die Versicherungsrate deutlich steigen, zum einen für Immobilien, Wohnungen,
aber auch KFZ-Versicherungen und auch andere private Versicherungen.

Denn: Wem es besser geht, der wird auch seine Versicherungen erhöhen. Wer kein Geld hat, oder nur sehr wenig, der wird sein sein Risiko reduzieren oder evtl. ganz auf Versicherungen usw. verzichten.

Gruß

 

 

0815ax: Interessant, das Blatt wendet sich. Heute bei Hartford alle Bänder grün. Mehr Beschäftigung dürfte irgendwann auch mal wirken!

 

0815ax: Alle 4 Bänder grün, was will man noch mehr?  Ich werde nachlegen - der Arbeitsmarkt in den USA frischt ja auch auf!
