MetLife's share price has slipped this year, but the company raised its dividend and is focusing on M&A activity, making it a potential opportunity for investors in an improving economy. The company is expected to focus on paying down debt, completing its share repurchase plan, and expanding M&A activity rather than significantly increasing its dividend in the future. Despite risks such as debt, high Beta, a Hold Quant Rating, and struggling cash flow, MetLife is seen as a financially healthy company and a potential opportunity for long-term investors.
