When a dozen firms reiterate the same stock in the same week, one move grades all of them. These rows are one bet repeated, not a dozen independent calls.

How this report card is graded
A call lands in the month its 30-day mark falls in. A bullish call is right if the stock is higher 30 days later, a bearish one if it is lower. Buy- and Sell-side ratings call their own direction. Holds are read: a downgrade to Hold is a bearish call, an upgrade to Hold a bullish one, and a maintained Hold whose price target sits 10%+ above (below) the price leans bullish (bearish). A true Hold, with a target near the price, is counted (57 this month) but not graded. Same rules as the 12-month scorecard. "Run before" is the stock's move over the 30 calendar days before the call. Once a month closes, its report card is frozen and never edited. Data: Yahoo Finance rating history and daily closes. Nothing on this page is advice.
