WMI: Bull or Bear?
Consider Waste Management, if you like making something out of nearly nothing
WMI
Filed under: Stocks to Buy, Green Stocks  It's a cliché, but it's true, and bears repeating during these challenging economic times: It's not a market for faint-of-heart investors, and those with low risk tolerances.
Most investors are side-lined, and with good reason. The pronounced U.S. recession continues. Meanwhile, other economic issues await policy resolution in Washington, but the two major political parties are not exactly singing kumbayah.
Well what's an investor to do? Think: Making something out of nearly nothing. Waste Management does.<><>Continue reading <>Consider Waste Management...

<> 
<>
The accompanying table [click to enlarge] includes 19 companies in the ETF Innovators [ETFI] Global Carbon Trading Index along with the prices of seven benchmark commodities and funds. Most of the pure plays on carbon credits are very small, with 12 of the 19 companies having market caps below $100M.
As I wrote yesterday, Climate Exchange (CXCHF) represents the most established company poised to benefit from the global expansion of the exchange-based trading of carbon credits, with a market cap of $620M. With ...

Time for Investors to Pick Up the Garbage Disposal Companies
WMI
|
<>With all of the major indices now in bear market territory it seems as though the best way for a long investor to play this market is to avoid the losing stocks and switch into the winners. I sometimes liken investing to gambling, but the advantage of investing over gambling is that you can change your bet at any time. Imagine if you were playing blackjack only to find that you had a very weak hand. But in this particular game of blackjack you can swap cards with the person sitting next to you and as luck would have it, that person has a very strong hand that looks very likely to win. Now, ...
