Psssssst, the scoop on 'whisper numbers'.

Pat:

Here is an interesting study on 'whisper numbers',note SI is also mentioned as a source of the 'whispers'.

Excerpt.

"First Call analysts' forecasts tended to underestimate earnings by approximately 6.1 cents per dollar of earnings reported. Whispers tended to overestimate earnings by approximately 4.9 cents per dollar of earnings. This suggests that whispers "undo" the underestimation in analysts' forecasts but may be too enthusiastic at times.."
