Cascade Investment, L.L.C. filed 108 open-market purchases in a single company, Republic Services (RSG), and recorded zero sales. The total buy value reached $1.58 billion, with all transactions coded as "P," indicating direct purchases on the open market. No grants, option exercises, or tax-related withholdings appear in the data, so the pattern is purely one of accumulation.
The buying accelerated sharply in early September 2026. Between September 2 and September 11, Cascade filed 25 separate purchases, all in RSG, with no sales in that window. The daily totals were substantial: September 8 alone saw $90.7 million in buys across three filings, and September 9 added $68.9 million. The largest single transaction came on September 8 at $55.4 million, followed by a $59.8 million purchase on September 4. Even the smallest recent trade, a $176,883 buy on September 4, was still an outright purchase.
The concentration is notable. Every one of the 108 trades targeted RSG, a waste management firm, and the dollar values climbed through the first half of September. The September 11 filings included a $39.4 million purchase and a $30.2 million purchase, showing no letup in pace. With total sell value at zero and a recent run of 25 straight buys, the Form 4 record shows Cascade has been a consistent net buyer of RSG stock, and the buying has intensified rather than tapered off.
