Earnings Forecasts
Per-quarter consensus estimates + actuals + beat/miss surprise. Sourced from Finnhub (Wall Street consensus aggregation).
Source caveat: Finnhub free tier returns the consensus mean only — analyst high / low / dispersion + analyst counts require a paid plan. A "$5.00 consensus" line above could mean "20 analysts at exactly $5" (high conviction) or "10 at $5.50, 10 at $4.50" (split). Treat single-line consensus accordingly.
