Insurers will carry us back to long averages

Insurers will carry us back to long averagesDumped a lot of individual (mainly bank) stocks that are index constituents in favour of this product a couple years ago... might actually see the advantage to diversification the XFN offers this season.

Count on insurers to carry XFN back to healthy range with this and next quarters earnings.

Good Globe article as to why:
