Thanks Rob, Liked this: Corel stock ranked second on a list of the four stocks that analysts hate the most. The list was compiled by Zacks Investment Research Inc., a U.S. company that tracks research in the brokerage industry. Mr. Dorfman said stocks advance by exceeding expectations, which is why unpopular stocks frequently outperform popular ones. "When prevailing expectations are very high, they are difficult to exceed. But to beat low expectations isn't so hard," Mr. Dorfman wrote. Mr. Dorfman said that in "a reasonable percentage of cases," bad news on the earnings front, like Corel has experienced, tends to be temporary. "I have real respect for certain individual analysts," he concluded. "But when analysts show great unanimity -- when they move in herds -- it often pays to move the other way."
