Where to find analyst ratings on stocks

If you're looking for Analyst Coverage, one way to do it is to go to finance.yahoo.com, enter your stock symbol and on the left side you will see "Analyst Coverage" section that has the following sub-headings:
* Analyst Opinion
* Analyst Estimates
* Research Reports
* Star Analysts

Analyst opinion will give you how many analysts cover this stock, estimates give you their recommendations - the low, high and average price targets, Star Analysts includes the names of research firms and their ratings on the stock. You can also see Research reports on a company (they have a small fee sometimes but its worth the opinion at most times).

However, one of the best sources of information when it comes to analyst opinion can be obtained by looking at StarMine ranking. Check with your brokerage company if they show you StarMine rankings of a particular stock.
