The Awards, based on objective Thomson Reuters StarMine sell-side securities analysts’ ratings, measure the performance of analysts against the industry excess returns of their buy/sell recommendations and the accuracy of their earnings estimates. The 2017 awards recognise the sell-side securities analysts who have shown outstanding performance as either Stock Pickers during the 2016 calendar year, and/or Earnings Estimators during the fiscal quarter periods reported between April 1, 2016 and March 31, 2017.

“These awards highlight the skill and timing of the analysts whose recommendation and estimates yielded the best results for their clients.” Raj Shah, the head of StarMine sell-side research awards at Thomson Reuters. “My congratulations to all the ranked analysts on providing truly differentiated research and extracting outsized returns from their coverage.”
Analysts are awarded prizes in three main categories: stock recommendation performance relative to specific industry benchmarks (“Stock Pickers”), accuracy in forecasting earnings as compared with peers (“Earnings Estimators”) and brokerage firms whose analysts win the most awards (“Most Award-Winning Brokers”).
