The Best of Breed Analysts

These analyst have a nack for getting it completely wrong. Its actually not too bad to follow them as if you do the opposite you are likely to make stacks of money.

Sasa Zorovic & Mike Abramsky

"Given the stock's valuation, there is greater downside risk than upside potential to Salesforce.com," wrote Goldman Sachs analyst Sasa Zorovic. He reiterated his sell rating and $53 price target. 05/22/08 - Sales Force is now $145 on 17th Nov 2010

Janney Montgomery Scott equity analyst Sasa Zorovic reiterated a buy rating and $40 fair value estimate on shares of Adobe Systems (ADBE) - June 18th 2010. Stock Price then was $33.12. Price as at $28.40 on 17th Nov 2010. The market has climed some 20% as well !

RBC Capital analyst Mike Abramsky says he is cutting Apple (AAPL) to underperform from sector perform and his $125 price target to $70 on reduced growth expectations, visibility and near-term leadership uncertainty. He sees a revaluation in the stock toward a market multiple. (15th Jan 2009 - Bloomberg Business Week). Price is now $314.80 on 17th November 2010.

If you know another great analyst with consistent nack for making the wrong calls, then let me know. Its great to keep a watch on these guys as doing the opposite your returns will be better than the Sage of Omaha.
