CAPSCall pick based on an article scheduled for 27-JAN-2012.

Unedited Excerpt:
The best companies to own for the long haul are ones that share a few key characteristics:
• They provide a necessary product or service.
• They build difficult to surmount barriers to competition.
• They directly reward their shareholders for the risks of investing, and
• They don't over-leverage their balance sheets with too much debt.

One of the few companies that fit all those criteria is trash kingpin Waste Management (NYSE: WM).
