Methodology
Each month, when TrafficSignals™ generates a signal, the tool compares concensus revenue estiamates on the RS Metrics report release date and to the actual reported revenue on the company’s earnings release date.
- Correct signal derived if reported revenue is either ‘in-line’ or a surprise in the direction of our signal
- ‘In-line’ is defined as within .5% of consensus.
