Many investors use companies such as Cintas Corp as a bogey of the economy, particularly for the employment sector. There is a simple reason here: it provides corporate uniforms and related business services.

The U.S. economy continues to lose employment at a rapid rate, directly impacting our customers and prospects," The suddenness and severity of U.S. job losses over the past several months has resulted in the need for Cintas to take additional cost reduction measures." Its corporate revenues were $3.9 billion in fiscal year 2008, ending May 31.

p/e is right above 12 -- the company has shown previous growth trends around 15%. That gives it a decent PEG coupled with Cintas dependable earnings and I think we have a 5 year winner.

I am thinking about adding on any irrational market drop.

I also see their trucks all over town. :)
