Only if it accompanied by later results.

In other words:

In your opinion, will AAPL be trading at new all time highs by the end of the year?

At the end of the year we should be able to see statistics about how well the polls predicted reality, both on an individual and aggregate basis.

But thanks for the effort.

It depends on whether it is SI_Operations-related or Stocktalk-related or Markets-related or Politics-related or a general inquiry of SI active users. If I see results, I want to know them broken down by Membership category, and total. If the poll or the results is market-moving information, the bar charts or tables should not be posted silently, but should trigger a header alert for some period of time, perhaps until the U.S. markets close the next trading day. Who would make the judgment that it is market-moving data? Who would get to see it early?
