Trump Tariffs Higher than Expected; What We're Doing
The Trump tariff increases came in larger than what we were expecting, and it remains to be seen how they will flow through the global economy, as we monitor potential retaliatory tariffs from other countries. As it relates to the equity markets, we’re taking a wait and see approach at the moment as we monitor new policy changes related to trade, immigration, fiscal (tax), and regulations. In short, we’re not overreacting to the sell off as we won’t have a great handle on the tariff impact to companies for a few quarters when they report results post-tariff increases. That said, we’re expecting continued market volatility, with meaningful risk to the downside, before trade uncertainty alleviates in the coming months.

Paper: Value and Momentum Within Stocks, Too
Abstract: This paper strives to advance the field of finance in four ways: 1) it extends the theory of the “The Arithmetic of Active Management” to the investor level; 2) it addresses certain data problems of factor-based methods, namely with respect to value and book-to-market ratios, while introducing price-to-fair-value ratios in a factor-based approach; 3) it may lay the foundation for academic literature regarding the Valuentum, the value-timing, and ultra-momentum factors; and 4) it walks through the potential relative outperformance that may be harvested at the intersection of relevant, unique and compensated factors within individual stocks.

Waste Management to Acquire Stericycle
Image: Waste Management’s shares have done quite well the past 12-18 months. The oligopolistic nature of the waste business is something that we like a lot, and while Waste Management’s deal for Stericycle will be more complementary in nature bringing in an incremental suite of medical waste and secure information destruction services, we have no qualms with the acquisition.

Republic Services Issues Solid Guidance for 2024
Image Source: Republic Services.  Republic Services is one of our favorite industrial entities. The company has valuable property in the form of disposal facilities, and its collection operations, while always facing a competitive environment, are essential services, making its business relatively recession-resistant. Republic Services is also a strong cash-flow generator. During 2023, for example, the garbage hauler generated cash flow from operations of ~$3.618 billion (was $3.19 billion in 2022) and adjusted free cash flow of ~$1.985 billion (was $1.742 billion in 2022). The company’s cash dividends paid were $638.1 million and $592.9 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively, so Republic Services is doing a great job covering its payout with traditional measures of free cash flow.
