Sometimes when starting a new stock study, or researching a company, there will be an entry for for an Analysts' or Estimated EPS growth that is automatically filled in. Sometimes however, this area will show a 0.0, or sometimes N/A, without any outward, obvious reason

If the estimate is filled in using data provided as part of subscription, it is possible that we simply do not have the data

While our data feed tracks over 8,000 companies, Morningstar currently provides estimates for approximately 2,600 of those companies. While we can request that Morningstar add a particular company to the list of ones that the give an estimate for, we do not have direct control over the process they use to actually choose which stocks receive this treatment.
