>>As for Gartner, they will never retract what they said. They are not going to admit they made a mistake. <<
Not true. "Changing" what they said is not the same as admitting error. It is cast as "responding to a changing market". It happens all the time- eg, otherwise sharebrokers who issue "sell" recommendations then recommend "buy" when the company does better or gets a patent or whatever.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
