The Chart of the Day belongs to Republic Services (RSG). I found the solid waste stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the highest technical buy signals then again for the most new highs in the last month. Next I review the chart using the Flipchart feature. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 2/16 the stock gained 6.14%
Republic Services, Inc., is a leading provider of services in the domestic non-hazardous solid waste industry.
