So, to everyone claiming Pachter is wrong more often than right: do you have any recent statistics to show about this? I know once someone researched the predictions of different analysts, and Pachter was among the more successful ones. If that's indicative of his skills, he ought to be one of the better analysts even now. So anyone care to prove me wrong with statistics instead of simple bashing?

I do not have that stats on it but he has predicted several things within the past year or so that was simply awful and was never going to happen. His stats would be skewed because he often says things that are painfully obvious such as "the ps4 is going to sell more" lol

I didn't ask for the things he got wrong, I asked for the statistics. If he makes a thousand predictions and a hundred are wrong, that's a hundred incorrect predictions. But his success rate is still 90 %. So if he makes a lot of predictions, he's bound to get more wrong as well, and you might be seeing that effect. Not only that, but other analysts seem to get less publicity, which means their mistakes don't go public as easily so even if they're wrong more often, you don't see it.

Now bring the statistics and stop fooling around with 'it feels like' kind of stuff.

On sales prediction about PS3 WW and all PS4 for the 1st year he have been basically wrong.
