Brighthouse Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ:BHF) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer shared insights on. A caller asked if they should buy, sell, or hold the stock, and Cramer stated:

“I’m worried about Brighthouse Financial… I prefer Chubb if I’m going to be in insurance business. I know Chubb has been a weak stock of late, but it’s also 12 times earnings. I’m always willing to buy Chubb at 12 times earnings.”

Brighthouse (NASDAQ:BHF) provides annuity and life insurance products designed to support wealth accumulation, income protection, and financial security. The company also manages legacy insurance obligations. Greenlight Capital stated the following regarding Brighthouse Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ:BHF) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:

“The biggest long winner was Brighthouse Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ:BHF), which rose 20.7% during the quarter. According to media reports, the company has hired Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo to sell itself. There appears to be a lot of interest from large asset managers that would like the opportunity to manage BHF’s approximately $120 billion general account. While there is a risk the current market turbulence could derail a deal, absent that we expect the company will be successful in selling itself at a healthy premium.”
