Republic Services Is a Great Company Nov 27, 2020: Image Shown: Shares of Republic Services Inc have been on an upward march over the past six months as investors warmed back up to the waste management company. We appreciate the company’s stable cash flow profile and high quality earnings, and we continue to include shares of RSG at a modest weighting in the Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio.

The waste management company Republic Services has proven to be incredibly resilient during the ongoing coronavirus (‘COVID-19’) pandemic. We are big fans of its stable cash flow profile and high quality earnings. According to Republic Services’ 2019 Annual Report the firm “is the second largest provider of non-hazardous solid waste collection, transfer, disposal, recycling, and environmental services in the United States, as measured by revenue.” The firm operated in over 40 US states and Puerto Rico as of the end of 2019. We include Republic Services in our Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio at a modest weighting. Pricing strength (assisted by industry consolidation), revenue growth (assisted by M&A activity), and the potential for meaningful margin expansion (assisted by economies of scale) underpins Republic Services’ cash flow growth trajectory. Shares of RSG yield ~1.7% as of this writing.

We’re big fans of Dick’s Sporting Goods’ tremendous free cash flow generation and its balance sheet health.

Thinking Slow: 3 Research Blind Spots That Changed the Investment World Nov 24, 2020: Image Source: EpicTop10.com.

We have to be on high alert about how our minds work. PBS is premiering a four-part series examining about how easily our minds are being hacked, and why it is so important to "think slow." Tune in (5). When it comes to the active versus passive debate, does the analysis suffer from parameter risk? With respect to empirical, evidence-based analysis, does the analysis have the entire construct wrong? When it comes to short-cut multiples, are we falling into the behavioral trap of thinking on autopilot?
