CBB · Trucking · NYSE · in our data December 14, 1972 to January 27, 1998 (25.1 years)

At its peak, on May 5, 1992, the market valued it at $3.0 billion. It left the market without a crash, last trading at $51.00. The delisting record says: delisted or deregistered. Many companies end this way when they are bought, merged or taken private.

The return covers the trading days in our data only: it does not include what holders received, or lost, after the last trade (a merger payout, a bankruptcy), and it does not reach back before 1972.
