With the Politicians making drug laws that have huge number of Americans behind bars this is one company that is in a growth position

The stock just filled the gap and should continue a long term down trend. Other major market opportunities will pull capital out, and attention away, from this relatively boring issue.

Private prisons are the answer when state budgets are stretched (as they are now) and politicians have to say they're "tough on crime."
The U.S. imprisons a huge percentage of its population, but hates voting to build new prisons, which cost a lot of money. Better to outsource to a company like the GEO group.

Governmental outsourcing ensures the continuing growth of the company. Balance sheet is just fair, with a high D/E. That debt is, however, well covered at present.

Truly a growth industry. More states are going to mandatory sentencing while their prisons and jails are already overcrowded and taxpayers are tired of paying for new prisons. Add in the current issue of illegal immigration and increased detention of illegals on the federal level adds to increased growth for the private sector.
Recs
The illegal immigrants coming into the country are being sent to jail in increasing numbers. Geo shareholders have benefited as a result.

With government run prisons exceeding maximum capacity and numerous government budget constraints, I believe private prison operators will benefit. GEO is already beginning to benefit from these trends as the company reached an agreement with the state of CA to accept inmates at one of its facilities. Furthermore, these trends can continue whether or not the economy heads into recession. With a fairly low valuation, bright prospects and favorable industry dynamics, GEO makes a solid long-term holding.
Recs
GEO has been moving and may make another acquisition soon

Phenomenal Potential. 52-Week Avg. Very High.

Recs
private prison growth is only realistic solution to prison overcrowding. Good management has positioned this company for growth.
