    Catastrophe losses put Allstate in focus

    Allstate (ALL) reported new figures related to a costly hurricane and storm season, highlighting estimated catastrophe losses of $220 million for September and $1.65 billion for the third quarter.

    Despite the sizeable catastrophe losses, Allstate’s recent trading tells a more mixed story. The stock has risen 1.45% on a 1-day share price return and 3.89% over 7 days, yet the 30-day share price return is down 6.85% with the 90-day share price return lower by 4.12%, suggesting some cooling momentum after earlier strength. At a latest share price of US$239.60, investors looking beyond short swings will likely focus on the 17.55% year to date share price return and a 1-year total shareholder return of 25.33%. The 3-year and 5-year total shareholder returns of 104.19% and 112.74% indicate how the market has been reassessing Allstate’s risk and income profile over time.
