Where were these brilliant analysts when AMAT was in the 20's? And now that it is up >100%, at a new alltime high, they issue a Strong Buy recommendation! When the last one of them issues a BUY, that may be the time to sell. The last sentence here got me to thinking that a good trading strategy might be to buy when all the analysts say sell and then sell after all the analysts say buy. Does anyone think this would be a good timing tool or done research on this?
