Rick Stuchberry Ambev S.A. ABEV-N BUY Jan 23, 2014

World cup this summer which is good. It has a big dividend and is a good income stock. Thinks this thing should do better as the summer progresses. It is a good income producer for him. They have to, by legislation, payout 35% of income. If he were to sell it would be before the world cup and then get back in.
