Hurricane Helene and the aftermath of the Category 4 storm have left over 100 people dead, millions without power and destruction not seen in decades in several states since making<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41073069/hurricane-helene-update-28-dead-power-outages-insurance-damages-and-more"> landfall Thursday night.</a>
What Happened: The hurricane, which shut down airports, roads and bridges, theme parks and sporting contests<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/09/41053573/hurricane-helene-disrupts-flights-sports-events-disney-operations-affected-regions-stocks-to-watch"> ahead of the storm&#8217;s landfall,</a> further devastated the states in its path after making landfall.
At least 102 people are dead across the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee and Virginia, as reported by <a href="https://www.cnn.com/weather/live-news/hurricane-helene-florida-north-carolina-georgia-09-30-24/index.html">CNN</a>.
With more than 100 dead, Hurricane Helene now ranks as one of the deadliest hurricanes to hit the U.S. in the last 50 years. Hurricane Katrina had 1,833 fatalities and remains the worst storm in the last 50 years. Helene ranks third behind Katrina and Hurricane Ian, which caused 150 deaths.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said Hurricane Helene "spared no one" when it came to the storm path.
"It looks like a tornado went off, it looks like a bomb went off," Kemp said.
Regions in North Carolina and South Carolina received four to five months worth of rain over a three-day period.
The federal government has declared a public health emergency for Florida, Georgia and North Carolina. Federal disaster declarations have been made for Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
President Joe Biden is set to visit some of the impacted areas later this week "as soon as it will not disrupt emergency response operations," the White House said. Former President Donald Trump is set to visit areas impacted by the hurricane on Monday.

North Carolina Hit Hard: Among the states most affected by Hurricane Helene is North Carolina, with Buncombe County, home of the city of Asheville, accounting for at least 40 of the storm fatalities. 
North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper called Hurricane Helene "one of the worst storms in modern history."
Over 200 roads are closed in North Carolina as of Monday, with many people still unaccounted for, meaning the fatality count could rise in the coming days.
The hurricane damage in North Carolina could impact several key <a href="https://www.commerce.nc.gov/business/key-industries-north-carolina">industries</a>, with the state&#8217;s plastics/chemical workforce being one of the country&#8217;s largest, as well as North Carolina being a large employer in the automotive sector, the home of several large financial companies, the second largest turbine manufacturer and a key semiconductor manufacturer.
The state is one of the largest textile manufacturers in the country and is the home of Hanesbrands Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HBI#NYSE">HBI</a>).
Fourteen of the Fortune 500 companies call North Carolina home, including Bank of America (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) and Lowe's Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>).
Lowe's and peer home improvement company Home Depot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) are among the companies that could benefit from the restoration efforts in the region and the home repairs and rebuilds needed in the coming months.
Power Outages: Over 4 million homes had no power as of Friday across Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.
As of Monday morning, 2 million homes and businesses remain without power.
Duke Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>), which is headquartered in North Carolina, offers utilities to several of the states impacted by the storm. The company <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/duke-energys-hurricane-helene-recovery-restores-power-to-more-than-1-1-million-in-south-and-north-carolina-downed-trees-blocked-roadways-damaged-and-destroyed-power-equipment-impeding-efforts-in-the-sc-upstate-region-and-nc-302261927.html">said </a>it has restored power to more than 1.1 million people in North Carolina and South Carolina with over 900,000 customers still without power as of Sunday night, primarily in the Carolinas. 
Helen&#8217;s aftermath could be a long process for Duke Energy, which is a publicly traded company.
"Based on what we can see on the ground, from helicopter and by drone, there are lots of areas across the South Carolina Upstate and North Carolina mountains where we're going to have to completely rebuild parts of our system, not just repair it," Duke Energy storm director for the Carolinas Jason Hollifield said.
Georgia Power, which is a unit of Southern Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>), is another utility company that <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/georgia-power-releases-key-estimated-damage-statistics-from-hurricane-helene-as-restoration-progress-continues-302261899.html">faced </a>heavy power outages. The company said Sunday that it had restored power for around 690,000 customers and around 425,000 are still without power.
The utility company said Hurricane Helene was the "most destructive hurricane" in company history. The company estimates it will have to replace or repair over 5,000 power poles, over 9,000 spans of wire and over 500 transformers.
Generator company Generac Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNRC#NYSE">GNRC</a>) could see a lift in the current quarter with heavy purchases likely to have been made ahead of the storm.
Insurance Impact: After the hurricane hit an area of Florida with a lower population than other regions, a report from the Miami Herald said the losses from the storm could be modest for the state's insurance market and smaller than Hurricane Ian (2022) and Hurricane Michael (2018).
Ahead of the storm, a report from reinsurance company Gallagher Re, which is a unit of Arthur J. Gallagher &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AJG#NYSE">AJG</a>), said private insurers' losses could come in a range of $3 billion to $6 billion across multiple states.
Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), Allstate Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Travelers Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>) are among the publicly traded companies that could be impacted by the insurance claims from the hurricane.
 A new report from AccuWeather, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/weather/live-blog/helene-deadly-storm-live-updates-rcna173203">shared </a>by NBC News, says the total damage from the storm and the economic loss could total a range of $145 billion to $160 billion. The previous AccuWeather estimate was a range of $95 billion to $100 billion.

Hurricane Helene: 102 Dead, 2 Million Without Power After Storm Destruction In 6 States

At least 28 people are reportedly dead in three states after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41028566/tropical-storm-helene-set-to-become-hurricane-generac-duke-energy-stocks-react-as-florida-braces">Hurricane Helene made landfall</a>.
What Happened: Hurricane Helene was classified as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/hurricane">a Category 4 storm</a> when it made landfall Thursday night in Florida. It brought heavy rain and winds of over 100 miles per hour.
By Friday, the storm was downgraded to a tropical storm. It continued to make its path north to Georgia and South Carolina, as <a href="https://apnews.com/live/hurricane-helene-tracker-maps-updates">reported </a>by the Associated Press.
At last check, the casualties from Hurricane Helene, according to the <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/hurricane-helene-landfall-florida-tracker-death-toll-b2619842.html">Independent</a>, total 28. 
Among the hardest hit areas of Hurricane Helene was the Big Bend region of Florida. This is the third hurricane in more than a year to hit the area. 
Hurricane Helene is also expected to cause more damage than the combined damage from Hurricane Idalia (August 2023) and Hurricane Debby (August 2024).
"To have something that was even bigger than those two storms causing a lot of damage, I think it's a sense of trauma for the community," Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said Friday.
Storm cleanup and recovery efforts Friday included trying to open airports in Florida that were previously closed to prepare for the storm and to get bridges and roads back open that had been shut down ahead of the storm.
Here's an update on the storm's impact on the power outages, the insurance market, and the stocks investors <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/09/41053573/hurricane-helene-disrupts-flights-sports-events-disney-operations-affected-regions-stocks-to-watch">are likely watching.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Power Outages</h2>
Over four million homes remain without power as of Friday across the areas hit the hardest like Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.
Hundreds of thousands of people in Florida had lost power in the hours before the hurricane made landfall.
Investors will closely be monitoring Duke Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>) — one of the largest power companies in Florida.
With the anticipated power outages and storm damages from the storm, investors will be closely watching generator company Generac Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNRC#NYSE">GNRC</a>) to see if the company gets a boost in its financials in the current quarter from the storm's impact.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Storm Damage, Insurance Impact</h2>
A <a href="https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/state-politics/article293117729.html">report </a>from the Miami Herald said the losses from the storm could be modest for Florida's insurance market and smaller than Hurricane Ian (2022) and Hurricane Michael (2018).
"This looks like it will not be a large loss event for Florida insurers," Insurance Information Institute spokesperson Mark Friedlander said.
Friedlander said it could be "a manageable event," which could be due to the hurricane hitting an area of Florida that is not as populated as other parts of the state.
A report from reinsurance company Gallagher Re, which is a unit of Arthur J. Gallagher &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AJG#NYSE">AJG</a>), said Wednesday that private insurers' losses could come in a range of $3 billion to $6 billion across the multiple states impacted.
For comparison, Hurricane Michael, which was a Category 5 storm that hit Florida, caused $9 billion in losses. Hurricane Irma represented around one million claims and $20 billion in losses.
Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), Allstate Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Travelers Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>) are among the publicly traded companies that could be impacted by the insurance claims from the hurricane.
The Aftermath: The death toll from Hurricane Helene is likely to rise as search and rescue missions are underway across several states. Power outages could persist for days and the damage done from the storm will take months to years to recover from for businesses and residents.
Home improvement retailers Home Depot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) and Lowe's Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) are other stocks often linked to hurricanes due to the damage done to homes and repair efforts that are needed.
With hurricane season still active until late November, the areas impacted by Hurricane Helene will be hoping that more large storms don't make landfall in the coming months.

Hurricane Helene Update: 28 Dead, Power Outages, Insurance Damages And More

Hurricane Helene is on track to hit Florida and the Gulf Coast region Thursday night in what could be one of the most powerful storms to strike the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/hurricane">regions in decades.</a>
Here's a look at the regions most affected, and how the hurricane is impacting travel, sports, and key stocks to watch.
Hurricane Path: Hurricane Helene <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41028566/tropical-storm-helene-set-to-become-hurricane-generac-duke-energy-stocks-react-as-florida-braces">could hit and impact</a> several major cities in Florida and the nearby states, including Tampa, Tallahassee and Atlanta.
Currently a Category 2 hurricane, the storm could be elevated to a Category 3 or Category 4 storm in the coming hours and days. The hurricane is expected to be one of the largest storms in the region over the last century, as <a href="https://www.cnn.com/weather/live-news/hurricane-helene-florida-09-26-24/index.html">reported </a>by CNN.
Over three million people in Florida and Georgia are currently under a Tornado Watch until 10 p.m. ET Thursday night.
A CNN meteorologist predicts that peak wind could reach over 100 mph in some regions Thursday and Friday, with rainfall of up to 12 inches in certain areas.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis warned of the potential that Hurricane Helene could shift its path and could hit Tallahassee, the state's capital. Tallahassee has never been directly hit by a Category 3 hurricane.
"This area has not had a major hurricane hit in quite some time, and certainly nobody in recent memory has seen a storm of this magnitude that has hit," DeSantis said, as reported by CNN.
While the worst of the storm will likely be felt in Florida and Georgia, the storm's path, which could increase in size, is expected to travel through portions of Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, and Illinois, with the non-Florida states getting hit on Friday and Saturday.

Stocks to Watch: Among the sectors that could be hit by the hurricane is the airline industry, with over 1,000 flights canceled Thursday at several Florida airports.
Southwest Airlines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) was listed as the airline with the most impact on the region by CNN, with the potential for its flights to resume Friday morning. The company has waived change fees for flights to other regions and airports to help travelers.
Florida is a key region for many theme parks, including Disney World, the popular theme park from The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>). Disney World has announced some park experiences have been closed due to the hurricane, but the theme park remains open. Disney World has closed for several hurricanes over the years, as <a href="https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/2024/09/26/hurricane-helene-florida-theme-parks-closed-open-disney-universal-orlando/75389447007/">reported </a>by Tallahassee Democrat. Hurricane Ian in September 2022 was the last time Disney World fully closed.
United Parks &amp; Resorts (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PRKS#NYSE">PRKS</a>) closed Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and several water parks it owns in the region, while SeaWorld Orlando remains open Thursday.
Insurance stocks will likely be on watch, with the damage from the storm causing potential billions of dollars in damage. Stocks like Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), Allstate Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Travelers Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>) could see heavy claims from customers after the storm.
Duke Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>) is a larger operator in Florida and could see interest from investors as the storm damage and power outages are assessed.
While the stocks above could be negatively affected by the hurricane, several stocks could be viewed as winners from storm damage and prolonged power outages.
Generac Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNRC#NYSE">GNRC</a>) is often viewed as a hurricane stock thanks to its sale of generators and power equipment. Generac shares are up 7% in the last five days, in possible anticipation of the impact of Hurricane Helene.
Home improvement retailers Home Depot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) and Lowe's Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) could see a positive impact from repairs needed to homes in the region and see their quarterly results reflect the increased sales, depending on the storm&#8217;s size.
Sports Impact: The early impact of the storm was witnessed in the sports world Wednesday, with Major League Baseball cancelling the Atlanta Braves (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BATRA#NASDAQ">BATRA</a>) and New York Mets contests set for Wednesday and Thursday. The games will now be played in a doubleheader Monday, <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/41442218/mets-braves-games-wednesday-thursday-postponed-monday-doubleheader">extending </a>the MLB regular season.
The games are pivotal in the current fight for the National League Wild Card race to secure a postseason berth. The Mets (87-70) currently lead the Braves (86-71) in the Wild Card race. It's possible that Monday's games could decide which team makes it into the MLB Playoffs. For the Mets, the team could see a tough travel schedule if they do make the playoffs, flying into Atlanta on Monday and then flying to Milwaukee or the West Coast for a first-round matchup that would start on Tuesday.
Several NCAA Football games could be <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2024/09/24/hurricane-helene-college-football-schedule-impact/75369720007/">impacted </a>by the hurricane over the weekend. The Miami Hurricanes&#8217; home game on Friday could be postponed. UCF&#8217;s home game on Saturday will also be monitored. The highly anticipated Alabama and Georgia game set to play in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on Saturday could also be impacted by heavy rain and winds.
The National Football League is also monitoring the storm and its impact on games scheduled for Sunday and Monday. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Atlanta Falcons, and Carolina Panthers are currently set to host home games at 1 p.m. ET Sunday. The Miami Dolphins host a Monday Night Football game that is also being monitored.

Each week,&nbsp;Benzinga&#8217;s Stock Whisper Index&nbsp;uses a combination of proprietary data and pattern recognition to showcase five stocks that are just under the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-whisper-index" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">surface and deserve attention</a>.
Investors are constantly on the hunt for undervalued, under-followed and emerging stocks. With countless methods available to retail traders, the challenge often lies in sifting through the abundance of information to uncover new opportunities and understand why certain stocks should be of interest.
Here's a look at the Benzinga Stock Whisper Index for the week of Aug. 30:
Realty Income Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/O#NYSE">O</a>): Known to many as "the monthly dividend company," Realty Income is a real estate investment trust that pays out dividends on a monthly basis. 
The stock saw increased interest from investors during the week, which could be related to a search for income to add to portfolios. The company <a href="https://www.realtyincome.com/investors/press-releases/realty-income-announces-operating-results-three-and-six-months-ended-2">reported </a>adjusted funds from operations of $1.06 for the three months ending June 30.
"Supporting our stable and growing cash flow stream, our liquidity position remains strong, and our operations and portfolio of leading clients are healthy. Given these strengths, I am confident our global, diversified platform remains positioned to continue to deliver favorable risk-adjusted returns, given our current visibility into our future pipeline of opportunities," Realty Income CEO Sumit Roy said.
The company could be seeing interest from investors due to its stable history of paying out and increasing dividends.

Bristol-Myers Squibb Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>): The global biopharmaceutical company saw increased interest from investors during the week, which could be for numerous reasons.

The drug comes from Bristol Myers Squibb and Karuna Therapeutics, a company it acquired for $14 billion in December 2023.
In July, the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/07/39982236/bristol-myers-squibb-witnesses-strong-demand-for-newer-drugs-as-q2-earnings-beat-expectations-rai">reported second-quarter revenue</a> that beat analyst estimates with the company's portfolio of drugs and key blood thinner treatment Eliquis seeing strong growth.
"As we move into the second half of the year, we remain focused on prioritizing opportunities with the greatest growth potential and impact for patients, including the anticipated U.S. launch of KarXT," Bristol-Myers Squibb CEO Christopher Boerner said after second-quarter results.
Three analysts<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BMY/analyst-ratings"> raised price targets </a>on the company in August after the quarterly results. Bristol-Myers Squibb shares were up 4.3% over the last week and remain down on a year-to-date basis.

Tropical Storm Debby is making its way up the East Coast. Populated cities such as Baltimore, Washington D.C. and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/new-york-city">New York City</a> are at risk of floods.

The storm made landfall in the Carolinas early Thursday morning, triggering flash flood warnings in Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro and Winston-Salem.

While Philadelphia and New York City are not directly in the storm&#8217;s predicted path, the major population centers are at risk of flooding.

</div>
<h3>Segment Results</h3>
Title Insurance and Services: Total revenues fell 0.6% year over year to $1.5 billion. The downside was due to lower agent premiums and information and other. The figure was in line with our estimate.&nbsp;
Investment income of $126 million declined 11.3% year over year. The downside was primarily due to lower average interest-bearing escrow and tax-deferred property exchange balances, partly offset by higher interest income from the company&#39;s warehouse lending business.
Adjusted pretax margin contracted 70 basis points (bps) year over year to 11.9%. Title open orders dropped 2.8% to 169,600. Title closed orders fell 2.8% to 124,700. The average revenue per direct title order increased 0.9% to $11,700, primarily owing to a shift in the mix from lower premium default transactions to higher premium commercial transactions and an increase in the average revenue per order for purchase transactions.

The pretax margin was 15.4%, which expanded 200 bps year over year.
Corporate: Net investment income was $4 million, down 50% year over year, primarily attributable to changes in the value of investments associated with the company&#39;s deferred compensation program.

Interest expenses were $23 million, up 9% year over year due to higher interest expenses in the company&#39;s warehouse lending business.
