# 5 Stock Picks Last Week From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

U.S. stocks settled mixed on Friday, with the Nasdaq Composite gaining over 1% after recording sharp losses in the previous session.

Major averages recorded losses last week, with the Nasdaq losing 3.4% and the S&P 500 falling 2.7%. The 30-stock Dow, meanwhile, lost 0.9% during the week.

Wall Street analysts make new stock picks on a daily basis. Unfortunately for investors, not all analysts have particularly impressive track records at predicting market movements. Even when it comes to one single stock, analyst ratings and price targets can vary widely, leaving investors confused about which analyst’s opinion to trust.

Benzinga’s Analyst Ratings API is a collection of the highest-quality stock ratings curated by the Benzinga news desk via direct partnerships with major sell-side banks. Benzinga displays overnight ratings changes on a daily basis three hours prior to the U.S. equity market opening. Data specialists at investment dashboard provider Toggle.ai recently uncovered that the analyst insights Benzinga Pro subscribers and Benzinga readers regularly receive can successfully be used as trading indicators to outperform the stock market.

**Top Analyst Picks:** Fortunately, any Benzinga reader can access the latest analyst ratings on the Analyst Stock Ratings page.
