A system and method for measuring, analyzing, and tracking the past performance of security analysts' earnings estimates and recommendations. A database containing historical information pertaining to analyst earnings estimates and recommendations is downloaded into the system. Pre-calculated data values are also added to the database including adjustment factors a single or set of analysts based upon their historical earnings estimates as compared to actual earnings estimates over time, and other user-defined performance analysis set parameters and metrics. A weighting factor may also be calculated for a set of analysts based upon factors such as the recency of an analyst's earnings estimates. Using these adjustment and weighting factors and each analyst's actual earnings estimate, a custom composite estimate may be derived. A front-end graphical user interface (GUI) is used to view analyst historical data either as raw data or, by using a data visualization technique, as a graph or chart.
