Larry, you might want to check with Waterhouse to see how often their Zacks information is updated. Zacks information itself is always "out of date".
Zacks does not get their info. directly from analysts - they basically redistribute info they get from other sources such as DJ News, Reuters & First Call, etc.
If Waterhouse only updates their Zacks site, say, weekly (which is common) then
what you are looking at is, in the investment world, very old. I don't mean to knock Zacks; it can give you a 'trend' picture. But, remember that during an earnings period, the numerous updates being made by analysts may take several days to show up in Zacks.

Yeah, Larry! You sure can't expect US to go around checking on information about our own investments, can you? I mean, isn't this what we pay YOU to do? We wouldn't all be sending you a monthly check if we wanted to do our own due diligence, would we?

So, Larry, get your stuff in one sock, and call EVERY data source to verify the validity of what you post, or we will cancel our subscription to your service!
