How this is scored. Every published price target is measured over a fixed 12-month window from the publication date, using split- and dividend-adjusted closes, and expressed net of the S&P 500 over the identical window. A call counts as a hit only when the stock moved in the direction the analyst pointed and beat the index, so a bearish call that is followed by a rally is a miss, not a hit. Only calls whose 12 months have fully elapsed are scored; open calls are listed but not graded. Score is the 95% lower confidence bound on the beat rate, which stops a short record from outranking a long one on a lucky streak. Analysts need at least 10 scored calls to be ranked.

Read across a sector rather than down an analyst. The street is most accurate in Communication Services (52.6% of 1,400 calls beat the index) and least accurate in Real Estate (32.0%). Note how far the last two columns can diverge: a sector where the target is reached often but the index is rarely beaten is one where the price gets there and the alpha does not.
