these big USA banks haven't changed since the days pre GFC when they were selling junk CDOs to the world as AAA rated securities, and were involved in fancy financial engineering to enrich their own pockets at the expense of their customers. Congress didn't do anything to reign them in. Why should anyone trust their analysis and price forecasts for any company - who knows what they are trading behind the scenes, and on whose accounts they are trading. Are they really producing these price forecasts for our good, or merely to create profit making trading opportunities for themselves. I am delighted to see they got it so wrong with A2M, and I hope they've lost a multi million dollar bundle on it.
