Recs
RSG is the red-haired step-child of the waste management business, but it shouldn't be. It is well-managed and has many of the same wide-moat attributes we like in this sort of business, along with some environmentally-friendly leanings.
Also, it has better growth prospects, both in terms of analyst estimates and dividend growth potential, and management has more skin in the game than its larger competitor. In this case, I'm rooting for this underdog.
