Zacks.com

I can't unsubscribe their mailing list!

Zacks.com is authoritive in the consensus earnings estimate area. Their paid database is really good but for financial institutions mainly.

You can get some piece of information in their website. But I do not understand why I can not unsubscribe from their mailing list. They act like spammers to me. That's why I hate it. Otherwise, I would appreciate it.

Overrated

"Zacks sucks", "Their picks suck", "Their screener sucks", Their analysts suck", "Their articles suck", and their always the last ones to late breaking news.

Good source for data

Zacks, like a lot of stock rating sites, provides good data on stocks. Like other sites, I don't just rely on one site. The best thing to do is learn to read the technical charts so you can get in when the price is low. I consider the MACD chart to be the most important. So by using Zacks recommendations and checking the chart, one should be able to make nice profits.

Pretty much useless for me

I was watching a stock for couple of weeks. Per Zacks the stock was useless but it was heading higher so I shorted and still going up. Fine. Then all of a sudden the same website released another block saying the potential and how this stock is so much undervalued. How come a company is all of a sudden undervalued when the same company was way over valued few days ago. I never trust their valuation or comments any more.

Excellent ranking system and earnings information

I have incorporated the Zacks Rank into my short-term trading for a long time now and have nothing but great success. If you are looking for a good 1-3 month indicator, the Zacks Rank is second to none. Also, they have a longer term Zacks Recommendation which is good for your 6+ month holding periods. Daily portfolio alerts of any changes to my portfolio are a big plus as well. Throw in the equity research, timely earnings info, and Zacks Premium for $199 is a flat out steal.

Absolutely Horrible!!!

Absolutely Horrible!!! I don't know where to begin, other than I lost lots of money with these clowns. I remember getting the Zacks Top 10 list.... and they recommended stuff like GME, NOV, WFR at their peaks and they took a nose-dive like you would not believe shortly after. Thanks a lot you bastards. On top of that, they have the nerve to constantly pitch these other extra services, saying some exclusive deal, calling me up at my work and home constantly, weekends, nights, etc..... They roped me in for 6 years $700 deal, I study stocks constantly but never bother to log onto Zacks except to see their poor performance..... i think beyond the Zacks rank which is free I believe, Zacks has pretty much nothing to offer and they know it..... don't waste your money!!! I learned this the hard way.

so far so good

i signed up for the 30-day free trial of the premium access on zacks.com. for the sake of comparison, started separate weekly watchlists based on their strong buy and overperform suggestions. i usually pick 5-10 stocks and "buy" 100 shares at market rate.

the watchlist i created for mar 5 2010 is up 5% (with 30 separate stock- surprisingly all but 3 are up)

the watchlist i started on mar 6 2010 with 4 stocks is up 2.25%.

I will more than likely sign up for the premium access- i think its $199/tr. and in comparison to all the differnt offering i ahve looked at, i think this is a good deal.

if you don't feel like paying for premium access or bothering to do 30 day trial, do sign up for their newsletter. they offer suggest 1 stock each for value, growth and momentum. these are enough to test their advice.

the #1 strong buy are meant to be reach their target price in 3 months or less while their overperform list refers to 12 months.
