FactSet and The Wall Street Journal announce the Best on the Street

The Wall Street Journal chose FactSet Estimates, an all-inclusive database of analyst recommendations, to power The Best on the Street Analysts Survey. This marks The Wall Street Journal’s 18th year hosting the survey, and FactSet’s second consecutive year as the data provider. The survey identifies the top five equity securities analysts in each of 44 industries, based on an objective, quantitative evaluation of their stock-picking performance. 

FactSet Estimates includes data from more than 650 contributing brokers and covers more than 17,000 active global companies. The database combines comprehensive information and innovative analytics to deliver the highest quality data available in the industry.

In addition to The Wall Street Journal, some of the most prominent players in the industry trust FactSet Estimates as a reliable source of data, including Barron’s, MarketWatch, and CNNMoney.com. FactSet Estimates is also trusted by top research firms as well as more than 50 of the top money managers with over $12 trillion assets under management.
