Valcom Inc (fka VLCO)

The big companies that list on the OTC market usually are listed on multiple exchanges all over the world. The OTC market listing is frequently just an ADR.

Now compare that with Valcom and it's bretheren. Companies whose only listing is the OTC and maybe one other exchange, usually the Vancouver Stock Exchange or a German exchange.

You see the positives. To me, the negatives jump off the page.

"foreign companies get access to American investors at less cost and without having to follow most U.S. securities rules"

"they include many stocks too financially distressed or secretive to meet major-exchange standards"

"OTCQX companies escape costly U.S. rules and reporting requirements, including those in the 2002 Sarbanes-Oxley law"

I guess we see the same information differently.
