More About ArgusArgus Research Company has developed a six-point system for analyzing stocks within its Universe of Coverage. Argus believes that this system, combined with its independence (as described below), gives it an edge as it develops its ideas, forecasts and ratings. Currently, a team of approximately 25 analysts cover 650 predominantly U.S. equities which includes all of the major industry sectors and most of the sub-sectors. Argus’ recommendations – BUY, HOLD and SELL – reflect the judgment of an analyst about a company’s prospects as an investment in terms of value, expected growth and risks. Argus Research does not bring companies public, advise companies on mergers and acquisitions, broker trades or make markets. This independence allows Argus to make critical judgments about companies that it might not be so free to make were Argus competing for a firm’s underwriting business. In addition, through its sister company – Vickers Stock Research Corporation – Argus is able to provide insider buying and selling insight. This insight is valued by clients as a gauge of management and professional ownership sentiment. Having been in operation for over 74 years – through depressions, recessions, bear markets and bulls – is another tangible measure of the quality of Argus Research.
