That 50 cent dividend will garner a whole new group of investors. People who shop for solid investments that pay nice dividends will take a second look at CVGW now. Not to mention giving the Institutions that own CVGW more of a reason to hang on or add to their posistions. If you bought CVGW today at $18, the 50 cent dividend is paying more than twice the interest you could get on your money, even if you had it in a jumbo CD. For those of us who bought CVGW in the $10's a while back, we are now getting 5% on our money! SWEET ! ! ! Thank you CVGW board of directors!
