Jeez. How do we deal with that?

Ignore it.

But for many companies, the full value hasn't yet been incorporated into analysts' earnings estimates, potentially catching investors by surprise when the revisions take place.

After discussing the issue for the previous two years, nobody is going to be caught by surprise.

The EPS revisions also could trigger selling by the increasing number of investors who use quantitative-based models to guide their trading. These models -- used by more than 5% of all investors, according to various estimates -- often automatically program sales of shares when analysts slash earnings expectations.

Any sophisticated investor that uses such a model will be aware of the coming EPS reductions.

That report is a waste of your time.
