This met a high level screen to indicate a sell and strong underperform against its peers (other tickers in its industry). My 1st version of this spreadsheet devles deep into the company's balance sheet and recent income statements, combined with other relevant price data for the company including insider/institutional holdings, short interest, debt levels, etc.
I'm testing capabilities of this 1st version of my automated, valuation spreadsheet matched with my personal criteria and see how it holds up.

As the second largest waste management company in the United States, Republic Services operates over 200 landfills and 70 recycling centers. The company has approximately 13 million customers in 40 states. It maintains consistent growth forecasts with solid earnings reports, and thus, deserves consideration from any growth-oriented investor.

Can't believe I forgot to rate this in CAPS when I was buying the stock hand-over-fist in real life. If I had to put all my money in a single company right now without touching it for the rest of my life, I'd probably choose RSG. Buffett can have his WFC, I'll take Republic Services. This is one to buy now and pass onto your grandchildren. Even better in the teens, but this is still a wonderful company at a better-than-fair price.

I think inorganic growth is usually bad in the long term. Nobody knows what kind of profits will shake out of the combined company. But we can be fairly sure RSG is not growing much going forward, since they already have a huge market share of this mature sector and have a lot to digest.

The better pick compared to Waste Management. Also like ECOL as a recession-proof pick.

Landfills will become goldmines when cellulosic ethanol is made practical and mandatory. Message to Bill Gates: when I grow up, I want to be just like you.

It's garbage. In a good way. Sure if we recycle more, there may be less waste, but recession or no, this country stillisn't going to run out of trash any time soon. Bad news for us, good news for the waste disposal industry. And their proposed merger with Allied will increase their market share without adding leverage.
