Book Description
Walker's Manual of Unlisted Stocks gives you an objective glimpse at the rich variety of companies in the over-the-counter stock market. Information can be hard to come by for stocks trading OTC, especially when the companies are not SEC reporting. We've highlighted this population once again in our 4th edition, showcasing 500 companies in two separate sections. 400 of them comprise section 1, an OTC constellation of US companies representing virtually every industry other than banking. You'll find their stock prices to be all over the map; almost always over $5 per share, sometimes (if rarely) well over $10,000. Investment types among them run the gamut too, from value to growth to income to speculative. The second section, new to this edition, is devoted exclusively to US community banks. Arranged together for easy reference, and designed with financial information of special interest to bank investors in mind, here you will find, quite simply, the 100 best buys in community banks that we know of.
In both sections, every company has a full page devoted to it that includes a summarized description of operations, up to 4 years of financial statements, our comments on operations and financial condition, who to contact for further information about the company and how to make trades in their stock (market makers, broker dealers). Some of the oldest and most venerable among them are also highlighted with an additional one page historical vignette.
Altogether, over 75 pages of indices list, rank and sort in categories that range from geographic area to market capitalization to compound earnings growth. Bank indices are organized and presented separately. Take a look at our 4th edition, not only for all the new companies we've dug up, but for updated information on the best ones we carried forward from last year too.
