With a market cap of $14.2 billion, Everest Group, Ltd. (EG) is a global provider of reinsurance and insurance solutions through its Insurance and Reinsurance segments. The company offers a broad range of property and casualty products, including treaty and facultative reinsurance, as well as specialty lines such as catastrophe, marine, aviation, and mortgage reinsurance.
Companies worth more than $10 billion are generally labeled as “large-cap” stocks and Everest Group fits this criterion perfectly. The company operates across the United States, Europe, and internationally, serving clients through brokers and direct channels.

Despite a few fluctuations, the stock has been trading below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages since late October last year.
Shares of Everest Group tumbled nearly 6% following its Q1 2025 results on Apr. 30 due to a steep 71% drop in net income to $210 million ($4.90 per share). The company posted a significant pre-tax catastrophe loss of $472 million, primarily due to California wildfires, which contributed to a deteriorated combined ratio of 102.7%. Both adjusted EPS of $6.45 and revenue of $4.3 billion missed Wall Street expectations.
