Summary Jackson Financial remains a "Strong Buy," supported by robust capital returns, stellar earnings growth, and a favorable rate environment. Q2 earnings surged 50% year-over-year to $7.30 per share, driven by 34% annuity sales growth and a strategic shift toward lower-risk, spread-based products. JXN maintains a risk-based capital ratio of 538%, enabling aggressive share repurchases and a secure 2.9% dividend yield.

Summary Jackson Financial shares surged 175% in the past year, driven by strong sales and a favorable market environment, but are now above my $102 price target.
