CQB is a dog. I used to own it for many years many years ago and lost $$. Every now and then I look at it, and see it has done nothing for a long long time, while the market has quadrupled or better. For some reason it and DOL (the other large US importer of bananas) cannot or will not divide up the market where each can make a good profit. I am somewhat skeptical the Americans will get into Europe and sell a lot of bananas due to some EU edict. However, maybe this is the time for a turnaround as you suggest. They used to have a preferred stock that paid a better dividend; don't know if that is still outstanding.
