I received an email from the owners of the TradingPro System who tell me that a very small number of “elite” traders are making a FORTUNE from the market right now. They know a “secret” way of trading that enables them to make a killing from the market, regardless of whether it goes up or down.

Less than 1% of all traders understand this method, and virtually NO ONE is teaching it.

HUGE, new opportunity today!

No one can escape the lure of turning waste into wealth. Here is a stock investment opportunity from the Waste Management Services Industry. The company is only marginally profitable at this juncture, but there are clear indications of better times ahead.

Consider the macro scenario first. Growing environmental consciousness translates into better future potentials for all entities that can handle hazardous materials. Margins in this business are sure to improve as social costs are built into pricing structures for all products and services.

This particular stock has some unique strength over its peers. The company is based in Burlington, ON though the stock is listed on NASDAQ. Its main areas of operation are in the highly environment-conscious climes of British Columbia. The company also covers the vacation paradise of Florida.

Expertise, physical assets, and logistic networks are crippling barriers to entry into the waste management business. The company services thousands of industrial clients

Looks like an “all of the above” to me.

On December 4 2007 I wrote a piece called Roll with Landstar, Short CHRW, saying:

“Based solely on sales or operating margins, Landstar (LSTR - Annual Report) is about 35% the size of CH Robinson (CHRW - Annual Report). If it had the same relative valuation, it would trade at $52 per share.

CH Robinson’s forward price-to-earnings multiple is 24.6, compared with 19.3 for Landstar. At 24.6 times estimated 2008 earnings, Landstar would be trading north of $54. Assigning CHRW’s 1.67 PEG ratio (P/E ratio related to its growth rate) to Landstar would give it a $49 value.

CH Robinson has a lofty 16.1 times EV/EBITDA ratio. If Landstar got that multiple, its stock would be $60.”

The day I wrote the article, Landstar closed at $43.02 and CH Robinson was $53.03. Today, they are in a dead heat price-wise, with LSTR at $55.59 and CH Robinson at
