I am also holding for the long term. I like their diversification within their business, meaning they don't just dump trash! I like to post opinions from S.A. that may seem a little different than my perception of the overall opinion on this board. S.A. has become less reliable since they changed their method of choosing who can write for them, but nevertheless, all input is always valuable, even if only to provoke thought. HCN was recently on a "short list" on S.A., and that argument seems to have disappeared. I do enough research on what I buy that rarely can a negative article on S.A. change my mind, but it can cause me to think and sometimes re-evaluate; not a bad thing. I am happy WM is not moving. Just collecting more shares in a well run company that some day in the next 20 years will have become an outstanding investment.
