    Do you trust stock analysts' recommendations when picking individual stocks?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 01:49 PM PDT

    One of my strategies to invest into the stock market heavily depends on the „expert" and „algorythmic" recommendations from several sources:

    • TheStreet
    • Zacks
    • Weiss Ratings
    • Yahoo Finance
    • MarketBeat
    • InvestorsObserver

    Honestly, I'm quite critical about some of them, especially after getting a lot of SPAM like "This special offer expires in twelve hours. Reduced price of $149 available exclusively today" And next week it's the same or similar :)

    Still, I'm using those recommendations as the first filter to narrow down a stock list to some 10-20 names, which I'm then screening with additional filters. I'm sharing results of these screens with you from time to time and I'm getting a lot of positive feedback. I really appreciate that.

    However, there is also a number of critical voices there, which make me think whether the strategy makes any sense whatsoever. This brings me to ask you a couple of questions:

    • Are the recommendations (by big players or individual analysts) any better than picking random / popular / undervalued stocks? In other words: can one beat the market by simply following the recommendations? Are those recommendations more reliable than stock screening that could be done by a regular investor using publicly available tools? Do you know of any recommendation system strongly backed with historical record?
    • A related issue: how much time do stock analysts spend on particular stocks and what criteria do they take into account? Can we generalize - I suppose some research centers / companies have better analysts than others and use different criteria?
    • Are the analysts / blogs / companies that provide recomendations somehow affiliated to big institutional investors? Are they used to manipulate the market or, at least, retail investors?
    • The recommendations are typically "Sell", "Hold", "Buy". If it's a "Buy", then from what I see, this typically lacks closing criteria, so one is expected do buy a stock without knowing when to exit the market or how to manage the investment. This also means it could be hard to backtest the recommendations with historical data.
    • Finally, do you take advantage of any stock recommendations in your investments? What sources do you use and why?

    These are things hard to find online, or I'm stumbling upon conflicting opinions. Maybe some of you know more on this or even you are professional stock analysts yourselves?

    I'd appreciate any comments, especially involving your experience or insights backed with sources/links or data.

    Here are some examples of comments I got from some of you recently, to give you a sense of what I'm talking about:

    • The problem I have is that I don't particularly trust any of those analysts. They cover way too broad of a set of companies to really be able to do any in depth research that could be more valuable than what I could do on my own. People like to meme on the motley fool because they are very surface levely in their analysis, but so are like 99% of these other analysts, they're just more fun about it.
    • I don't think I'm an expert on any of these advisors, but I think I know enough about 3 or 4 of them to know that they don't really have any more idea than anyone else especially market specialists and more involved investors. I actually think a more in depth analysis of each advisor's procedures could be incredibly valuable to a post like this in the future.
    • Those smartbeta funds tend to perform poorly.
    • Any opinions of TipRanks? Their data supposedly comes from qualified professional analysts. Outside of their pay wall, all analysts (good or bad) are considered. If you subscribe, you can see how the different analysts rate against each other.
    • Find a random stock and search it on Zacks, you'll find numerous articles along the lines of "BUY THESE THREE LIFETIME HOLD STOCKS NOW" followed by "SELL THESE STRUGGLERS" within weeks of each other.
    • Its common knowledge that institutional investors will have analysts and outlets like like Motley Fool and Zacks circulate bullish or bearish articles in order to suit whether they want to download or offload stocks.
    • I bet it's the reference to Zacks. That site is scammy and misrepresents their return %s.
    • Tipranks to be a credible source? What about brokerage research? (ex: Fidelity has a Weak / Neutral / Strong sentiment across short term, medium term, and long term horizons, as well as a traditional letter grade for each stock)
    • Confirmation bias here

    Thank you so much!

    Michael

    Lets build the next tech wave

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 01:31 PM PDT

    Hi, I'm Gerry, I'm a designer, game designer/developer application developer, writer/storyteller, content creator. But my main reason for writing this is that I need a serious crowdsource for my game development and my new application I have to develop, I haven't even finished the games, due to a lack of funds to buy a powerful laptop. I need an investment of about $2000 and I promise you $100000 by the end of the year., I have the skills, to tick players and people to stay engaged in a product, I just don't have my funding. Without any marketing budget or promotion, my games reached over 1500 downloads. There are times I removed it from the Google play store if I didn't so that I would have more downloads than that.

    I want to improve the games and make it one of a kind, that people -families, brothers, sisters friends, mum, and dad would love to play. I have great ideas that the gaming world hasn't seen before. I can boast of that.

    If you Invest you would have part ownership of the company.

    My games

    My designs

    My website

    Please do consider this great adventure/journey, let's change the tech narrative.
