How Was the Estimate Revision Trend?

Key Developments to Note

What Zacks Rank Says
GGP Inc. has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). However, since the latest earnings performance is yet to be reflected in the estimate revisions, the rank is subject to change. While things apparently look favorable, it all depends on what sense the just-released report makes to the analysts.
