The objective of  www.swisstocks.ch is to provide useful, timely and accurate information to investors about small cap stocks, primarily those traded in Switzerland, focusing on the energy sector, and in particular renewable and alternative forms of energy.

The companies presented on this site share a number of commonalities:  they are well-established (some have been in business for over 100 years), are largely self-financed and regularly distribute a dividend.  Shares in these companies are not exchange-listed and are generally tightly held by majority owners; they are rarely traded.  In view of the limited number of negotiable shares, these stocks are characterized by low volatility compared with large-cap stocks.  Because of their limited liquidity, they also do not lend themselves to the issue of derivative products such as put or call options.  These companies are barely visible to the general public, all the more so because of the lack of generally available corporate information and the absence of tracking by analysts.  Nonetheless, they deserve the attention of investors interested in stability, yield and long-term growth.  

www.swisstocks.ch also tracks a growing number of start-up companies working in the area of alternative energies (wind, solar, biomass etc.) and which are not widely known to investors, nor tracked by analysts.  www.swisstocks.ch offers them a window to investors. Over time, www.swisstocks.ch intends to extend its coverage to other areas of activity.
