Product Description Walker's Manual of Unlisted Stocks gives you an objective glimpse at the rich variety of the over-the-counter stock market. Information can be hard to come by for stocks trading OTC, especially when the company is not SEC reporting. In these pages you'll find 500 US companies from virtually every industry other than banking, stocks priced all over the map (generally over $5 all the way to $119,000 per share), and investment types from value to growth to income to speculative.
