Chubb Trading Volume Drops 25 to 309th in Rankings Amid Insurance Sector Regulatory Shifts

Chubb (CB) recorded a trading volume of $0.36 billion on September 25, 2025, marking a 25.26% decline from the previous day’s activity. This placed the insurer at 309th in volume rank among listed stocks. The stock closed with a 0.01% gain, reflecting subdued market participation amid broader sector consolidation.

Recent regulatory developments in the insurance sector have intensified scrutiny on underwriting practices, prompting strategic adjustments among major players. Chubb’s muted volume could signal cautious positioning by institutional investors awaiting clarity on upcoming risk management reforms. Analysts note that regulatory tailwinds may reshape capital allocation strategies across the industry, though short-term volatility remains constrained by macroeconomic stabilizers.

To run this back-test accurately, I need to pin down a few implementation details and be sure the output aligns with what you’re looking for: 1. Market universe • Do you want to screen all U.S.-listed common stocks (NYSE + NASDAQ + AMEX), or do you have a narrower list in mind? 2. Entry/exit prices • Buy price: use the day’s close or the next day’s open? • Sell price (after the 1-day holding period): the next day’s close or open? 3. Return calculation style Our current back-test engine evaluates one ticker at a time. • To replicate a 500-stock portfolio we can estimate the daily equal-weighted return of the selected names (i.e., average the 500 individual returns and chain them). Is that acceptable? 4. Transaction costs / slippage • Should we assume zero costs, or would you like us to add a flat commission or price impact? Once I have these clarifications I can lay out the data-retrieval plan, generate the daily selection/return series, and run the portfolio back-test from 2022-01-03 to today.
