Daily Sales Consensus^TM^{Introducing
The Street’s Perspective on Revenues}

In 1981 Zacks was the first firm to collect and calculate consensus estimates and quarterly EPS. Changes in these quarterly consensus statistics proved to be one of the most important factors affecting stock price movements. However, with the recent Internet boom, investors have begun to value many companies based on expected revenue growth rather than expected EPS growth. Consequently, stock prices have begun to respond to changes in revenue expectations as well as to changes in EPS expectations.

Zacks began tracking Sell-side analysts forecasts of revenues in 1998 while using these statistics internally in the Zacks Investment Management process. After two years of working with this data, we are now confident that changes in analyst revenue forecasts, directly impact stock prices. Zacks is now making these proprietary data available to institutional and individual investors. Enter the Sales Consensus.
