Paul, I've read shane's reply on ALL, and I concur. There is something going on at ALL that doesn't look good. Earnings growth has definitely slowed, and the market seems to think that ALL has some real hurdles--like Geico, AIG, etc. ALL's PE is certainly attractive, but there are other insurance names with beaten down PE's as well. I haven't really investigated, but maybe a Conseco would offer more upside potential, given reasonable PE and well-defined issues in the Greentree Financial unit. Just a thought.

BTW, I'm overweighted in insurance; esp. AIG. Have some ALL that I've had for a couple of years.
