TORONTO, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- TipRanks, the world's leading analyst ranking service, has identified the top ten best performing analysts in the Canadian stock market in 2020.

The ranking was based on the analysts' ability to generate returns with their stock ratings and price targets. TipRanks' algorithms calculated the average return and statistical significance of each rating, as well as the analysts' overall success rate. Each rating made during 2020 was measured over three months.

This is the first time that TipRanks has announced the best Canadian analysts of the year. It added Canadian market coverage to its service in 2018.

Andrew Semple from Echelon Wealth Partners takes first place. Three Canaccord Genuity analysts feature on the list. Four out of the ten analysts have general market coverage, three cover the basic materials sector, one technology, one consumer goods, and one financial.  

TipRanks CEO, Uri Gruenbaum, commented, "I am delighted that TipRanks has identified the top 10 Canadian analysts of 2020. While we are not an analyst endorsement platform, we are always excited to see those that generate excess returns and feel obligated to highlight them."
