"presenting statistical estimates of forecasts prepared by others with the source identified but without qualifying statement or caveats that may have been used. "
Its on Page 30 of CFAI text. Anyways, this means that although you are presenting the result of the forecast prepared by others, you are not considering the conditions under which it will hold true
Ex. An analyst predicts that the stock market will appreciate by 20% (provided the economy grows by 10%). So although you mention the result (stock market will appreciate) and the source (the analyst), you do no mention the conditions under which its possible (i.e. the economy grows by 10%).
In other words, the assumption that the economy grows by 10% is the "caveat" that is been used.
