TipRanks Identifies the Top 25 Canadian Analysts of 2021

TORONTO, Jan. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TipRanks, the world's leading analyst ranking service, has identified the Top 25 Canadian analysts of 2021.

The ranking was based on the analysts' ability to make accurate recommendations and generate returns with their stock ratings and price targets. TipRanks' algorithms calculated the analysts' average return and overall success rate over three months, and considered the statistical significance of each rating, with analysts who gave more ratings more likely to rank higher.

Analysts covering the Energy sector dominate the list. The top five analysts on the list cover Energy stocks. With five analysts on the list, RBC Capital has the most representation. Canaccord Genuity follows with four analysts.

For the first time, TipRanks will host an online Awards Ceremony, which will be streamed to a live audience.

TipRanks' CEO, Uri Gruenbaum, commented, "While we are not an analyst endorsement platform, we are always excited to see those who generate excess returns and are keen to highlight their success. One of the ways we level the playing field for individual investors is by making available the performance track records of analysts to individual investors, who can then follow the experts of their choice. I am extremely excited that for the first time we are going to hold an Awards Ceremony to acknowledge the very best analysts out there."
