Incredible, over the past 7 days, the average of 5 analyst polled by Yahoo finance
have increased their eps estimate for Q1.Taking it from $1.98 to $3.21
And for fiscal 2021, from $4.42 to $6.82.

I would put 0 credibility to 2022.We have seen it last year the accuracy of more than 3
months are questionable.

EPS Trend	Current Qtr. (Mar 2021)	Next Qtr. (Jun 2021)	Current Year (2021)	Next Year (2022)
Current Estimate	3.21	1.84	6.82	3.33
7 Days Ago	1.98	1.42	4.42	2.76
30 Days Ago	1.52	0.83	3.2	2.13
60 Days Ago	0.53	0.75	2.25	1.83
90 Days Ago	0.49	0.71	2.15	1.73

Don't know if it's a good thing. Such high target may be hard to beat. It's better to have a low target and beat it by a mile than a high target and miss by a few pennies.

Thanks, lifeisgood1010. Can you help a newbie like me out: I'm aware of how EPS are calculated, but how might this estimate EPS of $3.21 for IFP affect stock price? How does it compare to other lumber stocks at this point? Thanks.

Hi WhatsBestNext, Here is my take for your two questions but how might this estimate EPS of $3.21 for IFP affect stock price?: Stock price are a forward looking mechanism.I't all based on PERCEPTION of what will happen. For now, from everything i am  reading and earing(conference call),the lumber industry has never had so much tail wind.Supply can't keep up with demand.Lumber
