Analyst consensus represents the collective price targets and ratings from professional equity research analysts covering a publicly traded company. Aggregating the estimates gives a view of overall sentiment rather than relying on a single opinion. The API endpoint returns consensus metrics, including 12-month forward price targets as well as buy, hold, and sell recommendation counts.
