← Wall Street analysts’s view is too short term.
Welcome to the new Midas Oracle subscribers… →

Amateurish financial forecasters beat Wall Street financial analysts.

Posted on January 20, 2011 by Chris F. Masse

- Apple’s blow-out quarter: The bloggers called it, the Street blew it.

- Apple’s Underdog Analysts Outperform Wall Street From Helsinki, Caracas.

ADDENDUM: Yesterday’s post was specifically about the iPad forecasts. Please, see Paul Hewitt’s comment, and keep in mind that Apple, at inception, also underestimated the iPad numbers. They had to ramp up production, later on.
