For a while now, Desktop Broker has provided a consensus chart (free of charge) which shows buy or sell recommendations for most ASX listed companies from up to 20 of Australia's most respected brokers for no charge. These recommendations are consolidated into one easy–to–read graph provided by Thomson Research.
Previously, to see these consensus recommendations you needed to know and then obtain a quote for your stock.
Now you can see all stock recommendations listed on one web page and filter the information according to the stock code, company name, recommendation, current price and date.
By hovering over any content in the row of a stock code, you'll see a snapshot of the consensus recommendations.
