Open Text - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2024)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Why buying gold might be a mistake (Ad)

Something strange just happened with gold. With the recent Fed rate cut… My charts are showing a breakout signal I haven't seen in years. But for now, I'm not rushing to buy gold. In fact, I'm telling everyone I know to hold off. Because I believe there’s a far better way to play this upcoming surge. It's a method that could turn a 1% gold price change into gains like 59%, 118%, or even 228%. And it doesn't involve buying a single ounce of physical gold or even buying any regular gold stock. I've been trading gold for nearly 20 years now and this is my #1 recommended approach for trading gold right now. Most traders miss them completely… But for those who know how to spot them, it takes their trades to a whole new level.
