Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. (AJG) has been making significant strides in the market, with a solid increase in institutional ownership and steady stock performance. The company's recent deals, specifically a $13.5 billion agreement for
AssuredPartners, and acquisition talks with
TIH-owned McGriff, are indicators of their focused effort to amplify their insurance broker business. These strategic moves have led to new investments from entities like
Avanza Fonder AB and
Brookstone Capital Management. AJG's
earnings estimates have been met and the firm has exhibited consistent quarterly earnings. The company continues to deliver value through M&A activities, with an additional $3.5bn earmarked for further acquisitions through 2024. Despite some sales of AJG shares by the likes of
Professional Advisory Services Inc. and
International Assets Investment Management LLC, the stock has yielded a 219% return for investors over the past five years. Nevertheless, recent short interest increase and talks of potential equity raise pose certain risks.
