In 3q09, here are some highlights to calculate my estimated EPS figures:
- Corporate spread down by 30-40 bps => positive
- Risk free rate looks flat => neutral
- Market volatility down slightly from 27% to 24.5% => slightly positive
- Equity market doing great, up 9.8% in Toronto, 15.0% in USA and 14.0% in Hong Kong => positive
- USD to CAD dropped 13.72% => extremely negative
- as per 2q09 press release, management will put through $500M change in assumption (I think this figure will be around $300M instead of $500M) => negative
2010 Outlook
- Corporate spread should looks flat => neutral
- Risk free rate should go up => positive
- Market volatility should go down => positive
- Equity market should go up, but not as dramatic as 2009 => positive
- USD to CAD?? I don't know, I still think USD will not continue to fall => n/a
Just add some Manulife today at $22.41. No change on my target fair value.
