If you wants avacados this is the company that grows them. I like them for the following reasons; Little debt. Underfollowed. Growth Oriented. Expanding variety of veggies for sale. Good relationship with the grocers it does business with.

Recent institutional accumulation (BCS among the top I think) + Avocados + price on a slight DIP = not sure but I do like Guacamole!! and extreme bears will like the whole "food from the earth to feed starving" idealization...

Hey - maybe even Buffet will figure a way to make an authentic Mexican guacomole dip so amazing it tops that market, becomes a staple for millionaire+ dinner-parties, all while alternatively providing an avocado source so cheap that it's formulated into new guacamole flavor baby-food for the next generation of children from impoverished families that can no longer afford luxuries such as Gerber brand products...hmmm, have to check the nutritional content sometime...
