The Own list shows the securities you own, by account. You may view your positions in other accounts by choosing from the Account dropdown menu.
The Own list is created automatically, and is updated whenever you add or remove a position from an account.
When you watch closely, you flag a security which you may be interested in buying or selling quickly. A flag icon appears next to each closely-watched security on the Own list, and the row for that security is highlighted. By clicking the column header, you can sort the Own list so that all your closely-watched positions appear together at the top or bottom of the list.
You can set which securities to watch closely by selecting Watch Closely from a security's Action drop-down list, or by checking the boxes next to one or more securities and clicking Watch Closely at the bottom of the list.
Please note that the Watch Closely feature supports simplified self-monitoring, and has been created solely for customers' personal use. Fidelity does not proactively monitor these securities any differently than other securities in your watch lists.
You can switch between different Own list views using the View drop-down list:
The Most Accurate Analyst Recommendations table shows the number of firms that have a StarMine Accuracy Score of 68 or higher in each category of standard recommendation. Click on the number to see each firm name, StarMine Accuracy Score, recommendation and recommendation date with that current standard recommendation.
Analyst recommendations are generated by professional brokerage firms and independent third-party research firms to help investors better understand the potential for a company's stock to increase or decrease in value and determine if it maybe investment-worthy by evaluating its financial conditions, business environments, management, etc.
Most Accurate Analyst Recommendations are firms that have a StarMine Accuracy Score of 68 or greater.
Standard Recommendation is provided by Investars, a third-party research firm, that collects and standardizes recommendations from over 100 firms using a five-point scale to make it easier for you to compare one firm's recommendation to another's.
Recommendations vary because they are derived using a variety of criteria that are as different and distinct as the firm performing the analysis. For example, one firm's recommendation of Strong Buy may be the equivalent to another's recommendation of Overweight; that is why Fidelity.com provides access to both the firm recommendation and a standard recommendation from Investars.
Investars was founded in 1999 to provide investors with the tools to measure the value of research. Investars is owned and operated by Netologic Inc. a privately held company. Fidelity displays stock recommendations (buy to sell) collected and standardized by Investars. Investars is an independent company not affiliated with Fidelity Investments.
Click on the number to see each firm name, StarMine Accuracy Score, recommendation and recommendation date with that current standard recommendation.
