Hmmm... its an interesting point-of-view/issue,

is it proper to make a prediction/estimate at
some point in time (say, shortly after each
quarterly earnings release) and the "stick
with it"

or is it proper to change the prediction/estimate
from time to time (and at what times)??

If the latter, then a "big" surprise should be
discounted if there has been no news while
even a small surprise should weigh heavily
if there has been lots of news.

I suppose the answer depends upon what you want
to use the estimates for... eh? In any case, it
makes me want to know *when* the estimates were
made and what was/is the basis for the estimates.
By themselves, they're not such a big deal.
