Increasing position in Allianz

I’m buying more $ALV (-0.92%) .

My small position in Allianz is up 55%, and after revisiting the fundamentals, I’ve decided to double down.

The company continues to perform solidly: revenue, net income, and EPS have been growing steadily. With a dividend yield of around 4.5%, no net debt, and strong operational efficiency, Allianz remains an anchor in my portfolio.

It trades at an estimated P/E of ~12.5x for FY2025, slightly above its historical average (≈10x), but I believe this premium is justified by the company’s strategic evolution. Allianz is strengthening its leadership in Europe in key segments like cyber insurance and life insurance, which I expect to drive future growth.

While I don’t expect the same high returns I’ve seen recently, I believe Allianz still has room for moderate appreciation and continued dividend growth, backed by improvements in EPS.

This move also helps me maintain a balanced portfolio in terms of sector exposure and position count.

📊 Long-term hold, low drama, good fundamentals.

@Watchman666 it depends on what are you searching for, and what ETF you're talking about... This is a concentrated risk in 1 stock, and ETF is a diversified risk. There is not better or worse, it is just a different investment for a specific porpouse. In this case for me is a value stock that pay good dividend with good growth perspectives, but I have 50 positions in my portfolio, mainly individual stocks, so I kinda have my own ETF.

I have Allianz in my portfolio since a few months but the stock is down 7% for me. That is OK because I am convinced it is a strong stock but I am also struggling wether to increase my position. Any ideas? And no I don't like ETF's. I rather spend some time myself to pick opportunities myself instead of following the crowd :-).
