Jeffrey Gundlach, “The Bond King,” rarely gives print interviews anymore but current market conditions must have encouraged him to share his thoughts with me.

Why Are Analysts Almost Always Wrong About Apple

We’re proud to announce that “Why Are Analysts Almost Always Wrong About Apple?,” our latest article for Forbes, was selected as an “Editor’s Pick.” Despite having access to the most expensive algorithms and predictive models, analysts consistently miss the mark with their predictions.
