Stewart Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ:STEI)

With an aging population this might be a good growth stock. Meanwhile a reasonable dividend return.

Everyone is going to need this service once in their lifetime. Baby boomers are getting older, should easily weather the market for the next couple of years.

MAKES MONEY, UNDERVALUED, PAYS A DIV...I'M IN MORE UPSIDE HERE.....

I was gonna say, "People are just dying to use this company" until I saw Selena Maranjian's article -

But I will say that with the baby boom generation retiring and using more medical resources, it is also inevitable that funeral home services will also be more required, plus they pay an annual dividend yield of 2.5% at these prices.

If you're looking at long term growth to ride out the longer climb up the market, you can't look any further. In a sector that is always growing (rising death rates), there's plenty of room for #2.

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

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.

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.
