| Many companies
prefer to keep their shares in the over-the-counter market as they
continue to grow, especially when there are not enough outstanding
for an active market anyway. If the company declares stock splits
and stock dividends or issues more shares, this impediment to listing
disappears. But is it possible that the stock will appreciate in
value before it lists? Absolutely. Many of the stocks included in
the 2002-2003
edition of
Walker's
Manual of Unlisted Stocks
have stayed put on the OTC Bulletin Board and yet have outperformed
the market: |
| Biloxi Marsh
Lands Corporation |
up 1638% |
| Westech Capital Corp. |
up 850% |
| Reinhold Industries |
up 710% |
| Archon Corporation |
up 535% |
