Edward Meir Garners Metal Bulletin's Top Analyst Ranking
25 July 2014 - 01:00AM
INTL FCStone Inc. (Nasdaq:INTL) today announced that metals analyst
Edward Meir was ranked first for his overall second quarter base
metals price predictions, with an accuracy rating of 97.24%, in
Metal Bulletin's quarterly analysts review.
Each analyst/desk provides the latest forecasts for each metal
at the beginning of each quarter. At the end of the quarter, a
definitive ranking of accuracy in the forecasts is calculated and
published. The overall ranking is based on the average variance
across all forecasts received.
Since Q1 of 2013, Meir ranked as one of the top 5 analysts in
both precious and base metals, more than any other analyst. Meir is
currently exclusively retained by INTL FCStone as a senior
commodity independent consultant for base and precious metals,
having provided similar services to MF Global until its demise in
2011. Meir was voted as the most accurate price forecaster for base
metals in 2011 (among a field of 26 firms) and more recently, came
in second for 2013. Prior to providing research services, Meir
sourced nonferrous metals out of Europe, China, and Russia for US
clients, building on many years of trading experience he acquired
in the commodity space.
Fred Demler, FCStone, LLC's Global Head of Metals and
Institutional Futures, said, "We work very hard to make sure our
customers have access to the very best information and it is
gratifying to have Metal Bulletin recognize that we are delivering
just that, the most accurate metals pricing forecasts in the
industry."
