The First Call Consensus Recommendation is Buy
Since many brokers have different rating systems, Thomson Financial Solutions maintains a standard system with an assigned numeric value from 1-5 (see table
at right).
Recommendations are a translation of a specific brokers recommendation to the FIRST CALL recommendation scale, which range from a rating of 1 (one) to
a rating of 5 (five).
