con-artists (i.e. analysts) recommendations:

Strong Buy: Our big shot clients who want to get out of this stock badly now, and we mean NOW!

Buy: Our big shot clients want to get out of this stock but they are not in a rush.

Hold/Marketperformer: Our big shot clients are anxious to get their hands on the stock badly.

Sell: Our big shot clients want to get their hands on this stock now, and we mean NOW!!

**********************************************************************

A classic case of how these con-artists operate:

Late September/early October 1997 when SUNW was trading at around $46/shr: Prudential calls SUNW The best signle investment idea of 1997, if not the century!. The stock goes to $52/shr in a manner of 3 weeks and comes back down to the $43/shr range. Sun reports its earnings, and it is 2 cents below the estimates. The stock is hit badly and goes all the way to the $33 range. Prudential calls SUNW a hold/market performer and dead money for the next 6 months! The Stock then goes to $31 range. A week later SUNW starts to climb to the $40 range again. 3 weeks later with SUNW At $38 Prudential calls SUNW a Strong Buy again and sets a $60 target price in 8-12 months!
