Broker Consensus is the average recommendation of brokers on a 1-5 scale. Counter intuitively, 1 is scored as a Strong Buy, and 5 as a Strong sell. 3 is a Hold.
A consensus recommendation for an individual stock compiles ratings from a number of analysts who track that stock. The recommendation is expressed as a median of the separate recommendations.
A consensus recommendation provides a snapshot of current thinking about a stock, so it can serve as a benchmark against which you can compare a single analyst's opinion to gauge how mainstream it is.
