2025-07-22
New
Reason
Wells Fargo lowered the firm's price target on W. R. Berkley to $68 from $71 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The firm notes the company printed EPS of $1.05, beating its $1.04 and Street's $1.03 due to stronger investment income. Premium growth fell short and margins missed on higher cats and expenses, Wells adds.

2025-07-22
New
Reason
Keefe Bruyette lowered the firm's price target on W. R. Berkley to $72 from $74 and keeps a Market Perform rating on the shares. Shares should trade down on the core combined ratio and written premium misses, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
Wells Fargo

maintain
$70 -> $71
2025-07-10
Reason
Wells Fargo raised the firm's price target on W. R. Berkley to $71 from $70 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares ahead of quarterly results.

UBS
Buy
maintain
$78 -> $80
2025-07-09
Reason
UBS raised the firm's price target on W. R. Berkley to $80 from $78 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. P&C Insurance stocks under coverage were down 4% in 2Q25, on average, reflecting less favorable fundamentals and a shift from defensive stocks to more economically sensitive stocks, the analyst tells investors in a research note. UBS favors Personal lines insurers into 2Q25 results where margins remain attractive.
Barclays

Underweight
maintain
$62 -> $66
2025-07-07
Reason
Barclays analyst Alex Scott raised the firm's price target on W. R. Berkley to $66 from $62 and keeps an Underweight rating on the shares. Heading into Q2 earnings, the firm is more cautious on property and casualty carriers, saying underwriting margins face pressure from softening rates and unfavorable mix shift. Barclays is more constructive on reinsurers due to "idiosyncratic tailwinds" and capital return potential in the second half of the year. The analyst names Everest Group (EG) and Hartford Insurance (HIG) as top ideas.
