Apollo Global Management (NYSE:APO) beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate but estimates have fallen and they have taken the Zacks Rank down with it. APO is the Bear of the Day today as a result of it holding the lowest Zacks Rank. Just about all Bear of the Day stocks are a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell).

There have not been any positive earnings estimate revisions over the last 7, 30 or 60 days.
Zacks Consensus Estimate
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2018 was $3.22 60 days ago, but it has been moving lower. 30 days ago it stood at $3.20 and then slipped to $2.81 a week ago. Now we are looking at $2.27, a fall of nearly $1 per share in earnings estimates.
The 2019 number has seen some up and down movement, with $3.16 as the estimate 90 days ago and then kicking higher to $3.31 60 days ago. The 2019 number has slid, but not as dramatically, ending up at the current level of $3.26.
Beating The Number
Most of the time I expect a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) to sport a bad history of missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate. That is not the case for APO as the company has beat the number in 3 of the last four reports. They have also produced an average positive surprise of 44%, which is rather significant.
