The whisper number data published by WhisperNumber.com continues to provide greater returns when used as an investment vehicle, and has a greater impact on stock movement than analysts consensus estimates.

These declarations are supported by not one but two academic studies and are published in the Financial Decisions journal. The first study released in late 2005 was titled 'Conflict in Whispers and Analysts Forecast: Which One Should Be Your Guide', and the second release was in mid-2007 titled "Do Bulls and Bears Listen to Whispers" (both courtesy of San Jose State University College of Busines and Pepperdine University.) On a side note, there are no studies that show any significant impact or trading usefulness of analysts estimates.

To learn more about these studies and how WhisperNumber.com has used the results to develop their unique trading tool called 'Whisper Reactors', select from one of the following links.
