Just a brief intro this is a great article and chart I found on my colleague’s website http://www.frankvoisin.com. While there are many good sell-side analysts ( I know many personally), as a whole their predictions are wrong as demonstrated below. The reason I believe this happens is becaue of heard behavior.
At the end of the article there is a link to read the full article. You must register to read it. Although I almost never register for anything this is definitely worthwhile and time well spent.
