    I've had a bit to do with analysts and I must say they may be bright boys, but they have a tough job. They always expected to "get it right" and sometimes their hard work ends up in the wastebin because the "houseview" or fund managers decide not to use the stock. Fortunately they paid well enough not to take it too personally

    Nice to see our tech analysts are one of the boys
