Analyst
Definition
An analyst, or kaitātari, is a financial professional who reviews publicly listed companies on share markets and decides whether their stock is worth investing in, sometimes giving them ratings. Analysts read a company’s financial statements, listen to their quarterly earnings calls, and may talk with a company’s management or largest customers. Their analyses can help investors make informed decisions about whether to buy, sell, or hold securities like shares.
