Earnings Forecasts

 

FT Alphaville reports that predictions made by analists are no better than extrapolating past earnings into the next quarter. Nither analysts nor the business woners and managers know the future. Trusting analysts’ judgment in time of crisis is foolish, asking their oppinion in time of prosperity is worthless.
