Pachter seems to get a lot of shit for no good reason. He's an analyst, not a fortune teller. He's not always right. It's unrealistic to expect him to be always right. Really he's no different than many of us on the forums, it's just that he is a professional in the field. Perhaps that's why he's so hated irrationally. People are jealous of him.

When is Pachter right?  His job is to make accurate predictions and guide investors (YES, he is a fortune teller.  It is his job to make accurate predictions, the way a fortune teller does).  When is he right in that regard?  Look at my link below on Pachter and you see that he bats around 25%.  You are better off flipping a coin.  Want to know why there is hatred?  The dude goes on and on, and people quote him as a top authority and worth noting, and he is used in fanboy wars.  You read stuff that is wrong... unless he is talking in general about basic info that anyone following the industry should know.  But, when it comes to his job?  He stinks, and fanboys insist on quoting him in their wars, and gets VERY tiring.

Again, when is Pachter right? 

If he's recognised as the top earnings estimator for years running, then I'm gonna say he must be right alot. You guys all act like this is the stuff he's telling investors; people ask him for quotes and he gives them I hardly think he's gonna do much research everytime some random internet websites asks him what he thinks
