Water Tower Research

Water Tower Research is a leading equity research firm that provides research on micro, small and mid cap companies.

Water Tower Research was founded by Wall Street veterans after witnessing a fundamental shift in the investment research industry with the result being a declining knowledge base among investors, a lack of awareness and a shrinking pool of fundamental research being conducted on companies across the small-cap and micro-cap spectrum. The same issues are now increasingly occurring in the mid-cap space. This sea change within the investment community is impacting not only the companies themselves but also current shareholders and potential investors. With significantly less active sell-side sponsorship by Wall Street, a substantial information gap has developed between companies and various constituents in the financial community. The net result is fewer channels for insight and information to flow between companies and investors.

Another week of huge oil price volatility with the Brent front-month contract trading within a $17/barrel range in just the past four days. Early morning May 6 news reports that the US and Iran could be moving closer to an agreement to end the two-month war quickly sent oil prices tumbling with the Brent front-month contract touching $98/barrel; prior to partially rebounding back above $100/barrel. Just two days prior, news of Iran military attacks on the United Arab Emirates, despite the ceasefire agreement in place since April 8, pushed Brent oil all the way up to $115/barrel on Monday.
