Page 2 of 2

An investor who just bought and held Netflix would have made more than 400%.

An investor who followed Oppenheimer’s recommendations on Netflix would have lost 52% over this period.

Anyone who would have done the opposite of what Oppenheimer said would have made 810%.

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) isn’t the only example, though. There are hundreds more.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is one of the most widely held stocks in the world. It’s also covered by more than 50 analysts — almost none of whom can get it close to right.

Between September 2008 and April 2009 when Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) was trading between $80 and $110 per share, analysts downgraded Apple shares six times.

After that, when Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) was hitting $700-plus highs, only one of the more than 50 analysts put a “sell” rating on the stock.

Unsurprisingly, Apple shares have fallen more than 40% since 49 of the 50 analysts covering the stock refused to say “sell.”
