MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Beijing's gold number doesn't add up (Ad)

Goldman Sachs ran the physical gold flows through the London market and found China's real reserves could be 4.8 times the official figure Beijing reports. China's central bank has now bought gold for 20 straight months, its longest streak in at least a decade, even as gold just posted its worst quarterly drop in 13 years. Washington has already responded. On May 21, 2026, a federal bank board unanimously approved a nearly 3 billion dollar loan to build a gold mine on American soil.tc pixel
