Stewart Enterprises, Inc. (STEI)

Divi payer, and as another just said"death and taxes".

This account tracks the performance of newly minted 4 star stocks - 3 star stocks that recently turned in to 4 star stocks.

Two things you can count on in life, death and taxes. Both are going up currently and with the baby boomers on their way to the grave, STEI will continue to flourish.

Cremation, cremation, cremation...there just aren't many ways to make a solid profit on something that sets you on fire and then grinds you down so that you fit in a Mason jar. Bad, bad recession will further the number of people who opt for this cheaper way to be, shall I say, taken care of. Plus people think its "green". Actually, you're sort of grayish-white once you are put through the grinder. Human skeleton ground to urn-ready remains in 29 seconds. Gotta go...STEI's profits are going down again in 29 seconds. Death care industry has changed forever, as is most of the world today. Out grandpa back on the mantle. Time to eat.

Past history

Because I said so

Stable company in unstable times.

Member of the "Penny Stock Posse."

I like the below $10 price and its potential for a good return.

It is said that only certainty in this existance is death and taxes and this Company prospers on the first of these. The forecast of 19-percent for the next three years is compelling and that growth projection is greater than the market multiple of 17. Further, the current price is only 1.5 times book value leaving little downside.

i am disgust by myself when i see the possible prosperity of the company and hope i will have good return on investment when i am still alive.

on the other hand, consider the money i have spend on my dead cat(s), as unwise as it seems from hind sight, the decision at the time was made without any hesitation. Can we not count on the children to love their parents to spend more and fill our coffer?

It's a stable funeral services company at 52 week low.
It has issued buybacks in the last 2 years.

In looking for a "boomer death" play, I compared this to competitors. It has a superior P/E and ROE to CSV, SCI, and STON. A weak quarter might have depressed share price making it good opportunity.

Waiting for boomers to bite the dust

people will, unfortunately, continue to die.

Boomers are heading for the grave. STEI is in the right place to skim a few dollars off each dead Boomer. Hello, profit.

Can't let SCI have all the fun.
