Yes Jon, they just polled 20 people on the street who said "yea, I'm an analyst" I am sure that I would post that kind of information as reliable. Jon also wrote: "If out of a population of, say, 40 analysts, your phantom service intentionally chose only the 20 lowest (or 20 highest) then 8 analysts that represent a better random sampling would clearly be better." But what if the the 26 who report are chosen out of a poplution of 26? Or even 28? And the eight are certainly not randomly selected, but self-selected. So which "consensus" is better? The service is certainly not "phantom." Jon also wrote: "Again, without knowing who is reporting this, the information is worthless." Again, I challenge you to list all the analysts covering Creaf and explain the differences in their coverage, their strong points and weak points. Unless you know that, how can you judge the meaning of the revisions. Are you even familiar with the brokerage houses in Singapore? It is your constant personal attacks and legal threats that make me understandably reluctant to post more details. Happy Investing! Vanni
