Abstract
I test the rationality of analysts' revenue forecasts for a sample of value and growth stocks, which have been shown to have different valuation properties in previous research. Using one-quarter-ahead revenue forecasts and actual sales figures in a firm-by-firm and panel setting in the period 1997 to 2007, I find that all revenue forecasts are rational and actually improved after the introduction of regulation fair disclosure, albeit in larger proportion for value stocks.
