WRB:NYSEW.R. Berkley Corporation analysis

Data as of Oct 10, 2026 - not real-time

Latest price
$71.91
Risk: low
3/10Low risk

Summary

At $71.91, W. R. Berkley Corporation shows no decisive moving-average alignment, leaving the trend neutral. Across the trailing 30 sessions it gained 5.2%. Momentum indicators put RSI at 64.6 (approaching overbought) with MACD reading bullish. Recent trading has carved out support near $66.26 and resistance around $72.57.
Multiples put this in fair territory: 14.8 times earnings against the sector's 15.5. The average analyst target implies 3.9% below today's level. The 0.56% dividend yield looks covered by current payout levels.
Risk comes out at 3 of a possible 10, a low reading. With 30-day volatility of 17.9%, a beta of -0.33 and a maximum drawdown of 19.0%, the drawdown profile is forgiving relative to most of the market. The wider market backdrop reads extreme greed at 95 on the fear-greed composite.
The horizons line up on buy — conviction 5 out of 10.
