It may be a good approach, but I am not going to follow it. I am not interested in what analysts predict, whether it's wrong or right. But, BTW, I have a friend who highly recommends Zacks "Ahead of the market" amazon.com approach. I read the book and found it very boring and superficial. Not for me, sorry.

I remember seeing a study maybe 10 years ago that concluded analysts were pretty good at predicting which stocks would be in the first through 4th quartile of growth. Their numerical predictions were consistently too optimistic but there was some value in relative predictions.
