五、讲座简介
Each year, Institutional Investor (II) magazine surveys investors and selects All-American (AA) star analysts. Prior studies identify a range of analyst characteristics associated with All-Stars status but generally observe only the final public designations. Using proprietary II voting data, we examine the underlying voting process in greater detail. We find that voting reflects multiple dimensions of analyst characteristics, but the relative importance is highly uneven. Broker/platform resources and industry expertise together account for approximately 75%-81% of the explanatory power attributable to analyst characteristics, while conventional research-performance measures contribute relatively little. Voting is also a staged process, with a broader set of characteristics explaining entry into the Top 10 than advancement to the highest-ranking positions. Finally, voting-based scores predict future recognition and research performance.
