Sonny and Mary and ????, re: Analysts

I was not defending analysts in general. I think their calls on the market or on specific stocks are usually suspect or worthless, for the many reasons given on this thread. The point I was trying (unsuccessfully) to make was that if you act on analysts recommendations, then one that is always bullish is completely worthless, as stock go both up and down. You can make up your own mind to be always bullish without their help.

That said, I read analyst recommendations very carefully not for what they recommend, but for WHY they made their recommendation. They often have some information that I don't, or a different perspective on information I know. In this way they do add value. Really the same reason I carefully read this thread.
