Metlife (MET) has seen a trend of outperformance this year, even when compared to other finance stocks. Notably, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board boosted its stake in MetLife. Despite some shares being sold by Amalgamated Bank and Cornerstone Advisors, Virtu Financial and Citizens Financial Group made significant investments. The company's Q2 earnings surpassed estimates, largely attributed to favourable underwriting results. In addition, its Q1 earnings met expectations, with a rise year on year thanks to lower expenses. The announcement that MetLife will manage 3M's $2.5B Pension Obligations was also received positively. Long-term investors appear particularly bullish, as the stock rose by 11.4% in three months. It was also noted that although earnings have trended downward over the past five years, investors were more optimistic this week, lifting the stock 3.2%. MetLife's commitment to sustainability and care for its communities was showcased in their latest reports. In addition, MetLife has enhanced its retirement solutions in collaboration with Micruity and unveiled Globaline for expatriate benefits, further strengthening its position in the market. News of a potential acquisition of Hayfin Capital Management underlines MetLife's growth strategy.
