In several cases we published comprehensive reports dealing with the company’s entire history and then numerous follow-up reports dealing with specific issues that arose during the time we were actively following the companies. In some other cases we issued a series of brief, though highly detailed, reports focused on specific narrow issues that were material to the stock price at the time. In many cases these brief reports refer to a specific company release and make opposing statements that question the accuracy or intended meaning the company’s statement. All of our reports related to these companies, and some of our correspondence with these companies, is available here on our web site under the Research section. In all cases we believe they contain clear statements describing our expectations and opinions about the value of the company’s securities.

Asensio & Company, Inc. believes that the following are essential elements in any plan to improve the freedom and fairness of U.S. capital markets:
- Decentralize the SEC's Enforcement authority away from its politically-appointed, Washington, D.C. based Commissioners to the Chief Enforcement Officer at its local branches;
- Eliminate the regulatory bias against investors who oppose Wall Street's unreasonable stock schemes (these include the up-tick restrictions, the stock borrowing requirement and the exclusion of short sellers from the protections granted to other investors under the anti-fraud provisions of securities laws);
- Establish listing requirements that prevent public companies from filing frivolous lawsuits against analysts, media or other public commentators who criticize its management or have opposing opinions concerning the value of its publicly traded securities.
