Stock is typically rated on three tiers by analysts:
A “BUY” recommendation indicates that the analyst believes the stock will outperform the market or its peers. The term “buy” is also known as Overweight or Outperform by some analysts.
Analysts can advise a stock to “Hold” when they do not expect it to perform better or worse than the market. Hold ratings do not suggest buying or selling a stock. Analysts may refer to the “Hold” by other terms such as market performance or equal weight.
When analysts believe that stocks will underperform the market, they rate them as “Sell.” It is however rare for analysts to give stocks a “Sell” rating. It is also possible to use the terms underperform and underweight instead of “Sell”.
