Earlier today, one of those Fools, InveniamViam, tapped Genworth as a particularly attractive bargain opportunity:

As everyone knows, Genworth shares have been heavily punished due to the losses from the [mortgage insurance] business. I would say shareholders are giving the MI division a negative value currently because of prior reserve increases to cover rather enormous losses. When their MI business achieves profitability again (which should be within a few quarters), you will see this stock move very quickly toward book value. ... My view is the new leadership will be laser focused on returning the businesses to profitability, and then moving to the next phase of their business transition plan (permanently breaking the MI company apart from the insurance companies). I would look to sell any real shares at around tangible book value, which was just under $24 a share last I looked.
