According to a 1933 survey by the Cowles Commission for economic research, 1928-32 forecasts of how certain stocks would perform were actually 4% less accurate than if the choices had been made at random from the list. Eleven years later a similar survey by the commission found that accuracy had improved hardly at all; since then, experts who follow the letters have noted little change.
