Only half of all the Homo sapiens that have ever lived on this planet are dead. This company has most of it's cash flow ahead of it.

This will sound callus I know but... with the aging of the population here in the states this is truly a growth industry...

the boomers will be retiring and passing on...

as this occurs the demand for this type of business will increase more than it already has... this is simply a logistical pick..

More people will be dying in the next few years..

a little morbid but... it's the facts...

People always die. Until some scientist unlocks the secret to immortality, look for MATW to go up. When the baby boomers start to die this stock should really perform well.
