Re: An important note about analyst "ratings" Everyone should be mindful about which firms are issuing "buy" ratings on a given stock. Very often when you see a "strong buy" it is from the bank that handles a large volume of business for that stock. For example, CR handles Unicomp, SEEC etc.; Montgomery handles PTUS and so on. I am not saying there are always ulterior motives, but just that the "who" can be as important as the "what". I recall when Montgomery issued a strong buy on PTUS at 32 or so! No, I don't have a complete list of who "handles" what stocks, but it would probably be of great benefit to track such things. Anyone care to take a shot? - Jeff
