AnaChart was started in 2021 by Joseph Kalish and is run from New York. It keeps a record of what sell-side analysts published about US stocks, and of what the stock did afterwards.
What the record is
Every price target and rating change that AnaChart’s parser finds in public analyst coverage is stored as one event: the analyst, the firm, the date, the target or rating before and after, the closing price that day, and where the call was published. As of September 2026 the record holds 660,000+ price targets and 759,000+ ratings from 7,100+ named analysts at 400+ brokers, across 9,600+ tickers including ones that have since been delisted. It runs back to 2004 and is dense from 2013. It grows by more than 300 price targets on a normal trading day.
Analyst names are resolved to one identity across firm moves and spelling variants, so an analyst who covered a stock at two brokers is one row, not two.
How a target is scored
- Direction is set by the target against the closing price on the day it was published. Above the close is an upward call; below is a downward call.
- A target is met when the stock trades through it in that direction. An upward target needs the daily high to reach it; a downward target needs the daily low.
- There is no time limit. A target reached in three years is met, and the record says it took three years.
- Days to hit is stored as its own field, in calendar days from the publication date to the first day the stock traded through the target.
- Scoring uses raw daily prices matched to the target as printed on the day. No dividend adjustment enters the comparison.
- Targets with no price, or a price equal to that day’s close, stay in the record with the scoring fields empty.
The same rule produces the met ratios and average days to hit shown on anachart.com, where the per-analyst, per-ticker record is public.
Where the data comes from
Analyst actions are parsed from around eight public feeds that report broker research. Each event keeps a reference to the source it came from; about 59% of the full record carries a direct link. The parser runs continuously on trading days.
