They use this information to produce future earnings forecasts and discounted cashflow based valuations. The focus is on stocks likely to deliver unexpected positive earnings growth compared to consensus forecasts. Though the analysts’ forecasts are long term, the team also look at factors likely to affect company’s share price over the next three to six months – these are factored in when deciding the timing and size of trades.
