Our Goal...
is to provide "Wall Street" quality research on
small/mid cap firms that are being overlooked by larger research
staffs, but represent great investment potential. We're breaking
the mold and providing high-quality research information directly
to you, the investment decision maker.

Who We Are
We provide independent research on small and mid cap stocks that
have great investment potential, but are being ignored by Wall
Street. We also provide commentary and perspective on large cap
stocks and the market.
What We Offer
- Objective and independent research information
- Market commentary
- Educational articles
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 publicly-traded companies with great investment
potential that do not have research coverage. 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 and ignoring
great small cap companies with long term investment potential.
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 firms
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 brokers "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 high ethical standards
established by the Association for Investment Management and Research
(AIMR). Some companies retain us to review their results for posting
on our site, and we disclose this relationship, but still "call
it as we see it". As a result, these reports should not be
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 firms 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.
