Frequently asked questions
Which stocks have the most reliable analysts?
The top 25 above, ranked by % of analyst targets that proved right over 1 year. This is not advice; open each stock page for the detail.
How is analyst reliability measured?
We pull every timestamped analyst target (source: Yahoo Finance) and replay them against real prices: for each call we check whether it proved right over 1 year. The hit rate is the share of profitable targets. It's point-in-time. Detail in « the method ».
How is this ranking built?
We keep stocks with at least 8 analyst targets and a measurable 1-year reliability, then rank them by descending hit rate. The « upside » column shows the gap between the current price and the median target.
Will a « reliable » stock necessarily go up?
No. High reliability means analysts were right on that stock in the past, not that the price will rise. Cross-check with upside, valuation and financial health.
What is JPI Invest?
JPI Invest aggregates analyst recommendations across the entire S&P 500 (plus the S&P MidCap 400), replays them against real prices and measures who predicts best — on results, not reputation. Instead of taking a price target at face value, you see each analyst's track record on each stock.
