American International (AIG) stock hit day 5 of a continuous streak of days with gains, with cumulative gains over this period amounting to a 13% return. The company has gained about $4.8 Bil in value over the last 5 days, with its current market capitalization at about $43 Bil. The stock remains 19.8% above its value at the end of 2024. This compares with year-to-date returns of 15.9% for the S&P 500.

AIG’s recent streak reflects bullish sentiment fueled by a takeover rumor involving Chubb, which sent shares higher. The momentum was sustained by regulatory approval for AIG’s acquisition of Everest Group’s renewal rights in key European markets, signaling strategic expansion and future premium growth.

What is the point? Momentum often precedes conviction. A multi-day win streak can signal growing investor confidence or spark follow-on buying. Tracking such trends can help you ride the strength, or prepare for a well-timed entry if momentum fades. Our take: There are several things to fear in AIG stock given its overall Weak operating performance and financial condition. Hence, despite its Low valuation, this makes the stock look Risky (see Buy or Sell AIG).

While AIG stock looks attractive given its winning streak, investing in a single stock without detailed, thorough analysis can be risky. The Trefis High Quality (HQ) Portfolio, with a collection of 30 stocks, has a track record of comfortably outperforming its benchmark that includes all 3 — the S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and Russell 2000 indices. Why is that? As a group, HQ Portfolio stocks provided better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride, as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.
