The SEC, FTC, FINRA, Justice Department and other regulatory agencies are rightly concerned about the excesses in the investment awareness industry. There are no insurance policies provided by Wall Street research firms including our documents.
However, we believe our reports (report/release/advertisements) are based on academically defensible solid, in depth securities analysis. In this sense, our documents might be considered as a kind of insurance policy against regulatory inquiry only in regards to report/release/advertisement construction. This level of report/release/advertisement is not available in the investor awareness markets. We believe our documents in terms of in depth securities analysis, can be academically and statistically defended. While any regulatory agency can inquire about a given company or campaign at any time, we believe our documents provide a securities analysis defense for a consultant, promoter, campaign, company and ourselves. We believe our documents serve as the basis for corporate expectations and corporate communications for all investor awareness, IR and PR campaigns. Our disclaimer states that investors should not rely on our report/release/advertisements for investment decisions and that investors can lose all of their investment capital. We urge each investor to do his/her own research, and not to rely on our price targets. All information in our commercial advertisements or any of our distributed materials is not designed to provide information reasonably sufficient upon which an investor can or should base an investment decision.
This industry functions primarily on short term price activity. The Cohen Price TargetTM assumes that companies raise the necessary capital to meet our projected price targets. These price targets are theoretical and highly risky because smaller companies must raise cash to reach our outside analyst's forecasted price targets. If capital is not raised for most of our client companies, our price targets might not be reached. Our disclaimer states that these price targets are academic theory, should not be relied upon and that price performance can be heavily influenced by the structure of each campaign. Do your own research and consult with your investment professional before making any investment decision regarding our report/release/advertisements.
Our firm's policy is not to be involved in any trading activities or programs of other investor awareness firms, consultants, large shareholders, companies or any investors.
