Wall Street's sell-side analysts publish piles of recommendations on which stocks to buy, sell, or hold. But not all of those calls turned out to be worth listening to. TipRanks, a website that tracks and ranks analyst recommendations, published a list of stock pickers who had the most success last year. To compile the list, TipRanks collected notes from over 5,000 analysts in 2018, calculated the ratio of calls that generated positive returns in the following quarter relative to all ratings that were given, and examined the average performance of their recommendations. Here is TipRanks' list of stock pickers, in ascending order of their calls' average return rate. Alex Arfaei, BMO CapitalReuters/Romeo RanocoIndustry: Healthcare Success Rate: 84% Average Return: 6.9% Noteworthy recommendation: Pfizer (PFE) With Arfaei’s buy recommendation for Pfizer on June 25, 2018, he made a profit of 21.3% in three months. However, he subsequently downgraded Pfizer to hold in November.
