Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Gartner stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Gartner reported strong first-quarter 2018 results with revenues and earnings surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The topline growth was driven by strength across research, consulting and events segments. Gartner offers timely, comprehensive analysis that is known for its quality, independence and objectivity. The company’s research reports have become indispensable tools for diverse companies across different sectors, strengthening its leading position in the market. On the flipside, Gartner continues to face stiff competition from other players in the market that is characterized by limited barriers to entry. Since a significant portion of Gartner’s revenues is generated from operations outside the United States, the company remains susceptible to foreign currency fluctuations. The stock has underperformed the industry in the past one year." (5/14/2018)
