When a house insurance company has an influx of insurance claims

They have insurance for insurance companies, its called reinsurance (e.g. insurance against needing to pay out 10,000+ homeowners insurance policies at once). Its not going to affect them dramatically one way or the other.

Depends if they sold the polices to other companies to spread risk.

A lot of the time the stocks will actually go up because everyone is going to want insurance now and they can overcharge them.

as i understand it, most of those insurers are private.

Also; from what I've read, they have insurance policies themselves.

I don't think this is really a tradable event.
