Accumulate
Positive evaluation of a share by analysts
If analysts give a share an "accumulate" rating, they expect the share price to outperform similar shares. These ratings are published usually in the context of research reports valid for the six or twelve months.
The analysts' ratings are published as news via the press agencies, on boerse-frankfurt.de/en, for example, in the analysts' reports section.
