On December 16, Morgan Stanley analyst Bob Huang raised the company’s price target on Chubb Limited (NYSE:CB) to $310 from $300 and maintained an equal weight rating on the stock. He said the general insurance sector is grappling with familiar pressures, including lower prices on ownership and increased competition in personal cars. Still, attractive valuations and strong casualty pricing help offset those challenges, and Huang continues to view the industry as attractive going into 2026.
Chubb’s strength lies in its consistent cash generation and global presence. Over the past 12 months, the company has generated nearly $14.7 billion in free cash flow. That cash remains after expenses and supports share buybacks and dividend payments, while also funding future growth initiatives. This level of cash flow helps explain why Chubb Limited (NYSE:CB) has increased its dividend for 32 consecutive years.
Insurers also benefit from their investment portfolios, as large allocations to high-quality bonds, including U.S. Treasuries, generate reliable interest income along with insurance premiums. When interest rates stay high, that income rises and adds a defensive layer to earnings. As of Sept. 30, Chubb generated $4.8 billion in net investment income.
