Capitalists seek control of American Export & Trading stock
New York reports that several well known capitalists are attempting to secure a controlling stake in the American Export & Trading Company of New York, which is offering treasury stock for subscription. The firm has built a vast portfolio in Mexico and other Spanish speaking republics, with management predicting huge profits as development proceeds. A director confirmed the bid but said it will not be entertained. Observers believe the stock could become one of the nation’s greatest bonanzas and dividend payers.
