Markel Group

Markel's primary business is property and casualty insurance. The company focuses primarily on specialty lines, ranging from areas such as executive liability to commercial equine insurance. The acquisition of Alterra in 2013 added substantial reinsurance operations, which now account for a little over 10% of premiums. The company uses capital generated by its insurance operations to buy noninsurance operations in diverse areas, such as bakery equipment manufacturing and residential homebuilding.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Maryland Rep. April McClain Delaney Bought Over $27K Worth of Markel Group Stock: Here's What You Should Know

Markel Group's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MKL#NYSE">MKL</a>) short percent of float has fallen 7.97% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 159 thousand shares sold short, which is 1.27% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.62 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743605115_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Markel Group has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Markel Group's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Markel Group's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.41%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Peering Into Markel Group's Recent Short Interest

Taking a look at insider buying this week, we see that insiders are just as cautious and uncertain as the rest of us. The insider buy-sell ratio has moved to levels that are typically bearish, meaning that many more insiders are selling than buying.
&nbsp;Now, that is not necessarily a disaster. Insiders sell stock for all sorts of reasons—estate planning, buying a house, funding a dream wedding or an Ivy League education, or, in some cases, a dream divorce.
But there is only one reason an insider buys: they think their stock is going to move a lot higher.
Right now, the lack of insider buying suggests they are not feeling overly confident about the market's long-term upside. And let's be honest, the broader market indicators aren't giving us any warm fuzzies either. Market cap to GDP, the Buffett Indicator, is sitting at historic highs. The overall allocation to equities among pensions, individuals, and institutions is near peak levels, a setup that historically leads to anemic returns over the next decade.
The excess CAPE yield, which compares corporate cash flows to Treasury yields, is flashing warning signs with a spread that screams, &#8220;proceed with caution.&#8221;
A lost decade is not out of the question. That does not mean an outright crash, though. It could take many forms: a brutal meltdown and a slow recovery, a melt-up followed by a grinding pullback, or just a long, ugly period of sideways action. The market has been running hot since 2009, and it has weathered a few hiccups—2018 and COVID—but each time, the Fed stepped in and bailed everyone out. That kind of intervention cannot last forever.
Then there is the extreme market concentration. Most of the recent gains are coming from a small handful of stocks. The last time the market was this narrow? 1998-1999. Before that? The Nifty Fifty era of the 1970s. Neither ended well. Do the math.
So, where is the smart money going during these turbulent times?
That brings us to Tom Gayner at Markel (Ticker: MKL).
Markel is not your typical insurance company.
&nbsp;It's a specialty insurer, covering everything from marine and aviation to professional liability and even horse insurance,. It seems in addition to specialty property and liability coverages they also insure racehorses, show horses, and livestock. &nbsp;That even includes major medical insurance for horses
The business is well-run and highly profitable. Gayner, who took the reins in 1990, has transformed it from a $40 million outfit into an $18 billion powerhouse.
His investment track record is nothing short of spectacular, crushing the S&amp;P 500 over multiple decades. Recently, he made two separate six-figure stock purchases—one in November, another in early February. That kind of move from a guy with his track record should make you sit up and take notice.
Markel is not just about insurance. It also runs an investment portfolio that mirrors the Berkshire Hathaway model, with a strong emphasis on long-term, value-driven stock picks. The firm's portfolio includes major stakes in companies like Berkshire Hathaway (Ticker: BRK-A), Google (Ticker: GOOGL), Brookfield (Ticker: BN), Amazon (Ticker: AMZN), John Deere (Ticker: DE), Home Depot (Ticker: HD), Visa (Ticker: V), Apple(Ticker: AAPL), and Watsco (Ticker: WSC),a top-tier HVAC distributor generating impressive cash flow.
More recently, they have been buying Franco-Nevada, a gold royalty company, and Hagerty Insurance, which specializes in classic car coverage. They have also added Airbnb, Dollar General, and Insperity, a staffing solutions provider. The investment strategy is built on high-quality businesses with strong cash flow, and Markel's ability to generate returns has been exceptional over time.
Another name that caught my eye? Amcor PLC (Ticker: AMCR). It is a UK-based packaging and container company specializing in medical and consumer goods packaging. They are in the process of acquiring Berry Global, which will significantly boost their market position.
The stock is cheap, trading at just $10 per share with a solid 5% dividend yield. The CEO just snapped up another $1 million worth of stock, increasing his stake by over 30%. When the guy running the show puts that kind of money on the table, you should pay attention.
And for those of you still swiping left and right, Match Group (Ticker: MTCH) insiders are making a move. Match owns all the big names in online dating—Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, and even some niche brands. The CEO just bought $2 million worth of stock, and a director stepped up with a six-figure buy.
This business has high gross margins, strong cash flow, and solid projected earnings growth for 2025. Wall Street loves it, and now the people at the top are backing it with their own cash.
So what is the takeaway? The overall market looks sketchy. Insiders are not exactly lining up to buy, which is a big red flag. But when the few who are buying happen to be seasoned, successful executives with a history of making smart bets, it is worth following their lead. Keep your eyes on Markel, Amcor, and Match Group.
These insiders are not waiting for permission. They are backing their convictions with real money. That is the kind of move you want to watch in times like these.
