Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Arch Capital Group stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of Arch Capital have underperformed the Zacks categorized Property and Casualty industry quarter to date. The company witnessed its 2017 estimates moving south over the last 30 days. Exposure to catastrophe losses poses an inherent risk to the P&C business, inducing volatility in underwriting results. Also, a still low interest rate environment and intense competition raise concerns for the company. Nonetheless, with a strong product portfolio, Arch Capital has been maintaining an exemplary track record of premium growth. This apart, the company has been making efforts to diversify its Mortgage Insurance business through strategic acquisitions. Moreover, the insurer remains focused in boosting shareholders’ value through share buybacks and dividend payments. Such effective capital deployment makes the stock an attractive pick for yield-seeking investors." (6/27/2017)
• 2. Wells Fargo & Company analysts commented, "We await more details from the company to determine whether this will potentially lead to additional reserve charges across the industry." (6/7/2017)
• 3. BMO Capital Markets analysts commented, "We are incorporating a $4 embedded value into our ACGL valuation stemming from the future earn-out of already written mortgage insurance business. In addition, we expect the incorporation of the UGC book to lower the overall earnings volatility of Arch as a majority of earnings over the next 12-24 months will come from already written mortgage insurance. While Arch was never known for volatility, the reduced PMLs and mortgage insurance earn-out should stabilize it even further, justifying an increased valuation." (2/28/2017)
