No matter how you spin it, we as a people will never run out of garbage. Thus Waste Management will continue to thrive and so will it's stock.

You just have to love a stock that offers a service everyone needs and gives you a dividend.

I currently own this stock.

We always need places to put our trash, and we want someone else to take care of it.

when economy picks so does waste product, I,m sure the stimulus package will work it,s way down to our refuse, another play may be recycling.Waste mgt. has the means to be on top because of thier centers.

14 P/E ? What does these guys have a patent on throwing a can in a truck? Yea.. Bill Gates... yea I heard that too. All I see are a lot of green thumbs and red points.

No matter what the economy does, we all produce garbage. Not everybody lives out in the country and can have a burn barrel for thier trash. So for all the city slickers out there, Waste Management is for you.

Fixation on environment will benefit them as technology becomes more important

Trash is big business. In it for the recycling and resource recovery which, I believe, will become much more profitable for them in the future.

WM is competing with natural gas in the energy sector and I expect their trash to energy division will continue to show losses. All the huge natural gas finds are driving down the cost of electricity as more becomes available. Also, it will take time and money for WM to transform themselves from a trash hauler to an environmental waste company. That means the dividend will take a hit. This might mean good things a few years out but there are better places to put your money over the next year. I'm selling WM.

This time the Wall Street WM watchers have it right: 11-0. Waste Management also recycles all sorts of stuff and owns several companies, e.g. Allied Waste. There will be more garbage and more recycling as our population grows.
Recs
As people buy more they will recycle more. As home building begins to increase again they will need Waste Management to get the trash they accumulate.
Recs
people will always need their trash picked up and recycling taken care of, which this company is the leader in both
Recs
This is a solid company in the "solid waste" business. It has lagged a bit in this market bounce and should hold up on any pull back. I look for it to outperform the broader market over the next three years or so.

good dividend, steady trash business
Recs
The dividend is good and as long as we inhabit this planet we will have garbage. They are the largest.

WMI just opened an environment plant in my area. I know that demand is low right now but it will get better, especially with the new political climate.
Recs
Solid (waste) business that is never going away.
Nice dividend.
Dominance in its industry.

Trash is cash
