Introduction Health and Life Insurance
This is a highly requested subscriber request series on health and life insurance companies. What I have done here is I have picked the top five life insurance companies and I’ve limited this particular video to only A rated companies or better. I’m going to be looking at these one at a time and go through this from a standpoint of current valuation relative to historical performance, and then relative to dividend safety.
So to summarize, I’m going to look at valuation of each of these companies as far as relative to their historical norms and their operating histories. I’m then going to be comparing their performance to the market. I’m going to be using the S&P 500 as my proxy. And then last, but not least, I’m going to look at the dividend coverage by looking at operating cash flow and free cash flow on each of these companies.
