The ranking was based on the analysts’ ability to generate return with their stock ratings and price targets. TipRanks’ algorithms calculated the average return and statistical significance of each rating, as well as the overall success rate. Each rating made during 2019 was measured over a time-frame of 3 months.
CEO of TipRanks, Uri Gruenbaum, commented, “While we are not an analyst endorsement platform, we are always excited to see those that generate excess returns and feel obligated to highlight them. Again in 2019, we saw the power of smaller research firms which continue to produce a disproportionate number of top-performing analysts.”
