MeadWestvaco Corporation

MeadWestvaco Corporation is among the world’s largest Paper Products sector businesses in the world.  MeadWestvaco Corporation’s employees generate $74.0M in profits on $6.648B of revenue.  Global output in the Paper Products business will likely rise substantially over the next 10 years.  Long-term economic growth may lift all boats, but MeadWestvaco Corporation is determined to remain a market leader.  Sectoral leadership in the Paper Products segment takes dedication and consistency, but management seeks out-sized growth.

MeadWestvaco Corporation’s ticker symbol MWV has recently been trading near $35.87 a share.  The MeadWestvaco Corporation corporate headquarters in Glen Allen VA predicts Paper Products profits will satisfy shareholders in search of risk-appropriate returns.

The significance of market volume is sometimes ignored, but with a total market capitalization of $6.616B ensures sufficient liquidity.  With a beta of 1.30, the company is more volatile than the market as a whole.  When the average equity moves higher, MeadWestvaco Corporation moves more aggressively.
