This service is a departure from the "traditional model"
(discussed next) and is a more effective way of reaching investors.
We have found no one that does what we do.
The traditional model is breaking down. As the result of current
industry dynamics, there are a large and growing number of high
quality firms with great investment potential that are being
overlooked. The combination of narrowing trading spreads and
industry consolidation are forcing brokerage firms to focus their
efforts where the largest potential profits are, namely larger
cap stocks that have high liquidity. Focusing on these stocks
helps trading desks to make money and these firms also have a
greater potential for large-margin corporate finance business.
Consequently, brokerage houses are focusing their research and
trading efforts toward large cap, highly liquid stocks while
analysts are overlooking great growth stories.
Even if a typical brokerage-based analyst is covering a firm,
the research is not being delivered to the widest possible audience.
Typically, analysts' reports are distributed to the firmsą brokers;
who send them to those clients they think are interested in the
stock. Consequently, the audience is limited not only by the broker
network, but also by each broker's "client filter" and personal
preferences.
researchstock.com analyzes stocks objectively and reports are
distributed to the widest possible audience. Our reports are
objective and adhere to the same high industry standards that Wall
Street analysts use. While some companies retain us to review
their results for posting on our site, we disclose this relationship
but still "call it as we see it". As a result, these reports
should not viewed as "PR pieces". Our reports are posted on our
website for viewing by any visitors as well as any news releases and
links to clients' websites. The end result is an unbiased report
on a firm's investment potential that can be read by investors
worldwide.
This is the solution to the problem of reaching every potential
investor. It is not limited by the traditional model of investment
houses and their broker networks. It utilizes the immense and
far-reaching distribution potential of the Internet and the growing
number of investors that are utilizing the Web to make their investment
decisions. BOTTOM LINE: Investors will get "Wall Street" quality
research on firms that they cannot find elsewhere.
