Is anyone try the Motley Fool stock picks?

Question

Actually, I'm trying to find a good source with advices.
There is too many information out there. Is anyone has track record
of a good source.
I'm making in average 15% per year with my mutual funds but with some extra money I'd like to try for more. Thanks

Answer 1

Read their book if you want to know how and why they choose their picks.
They're just trying to make the most money in the "safest" companies. It's tried and true by many but stocks are always gambling. Look what happened last week.
Anyway, it's an easy and interesting read in paperback. I have had their book for years and I always get something new out of it when I go back and reference it.

Answer 2

I signed up for their news letter at the beginning of the year and have been satisfied. I don’t agree, or completely disagree, with the short comment about the BS and lack of substance. Several of their picks have done very well and a few are not so good. I like the idea that they are younger and independent but they miss the boat now and then particularly in retail stocks.

I too was heavy in mutual finds and used their research (plus my own) to buy many different stocks…creating my own mini mutual fund. When one stock drops, and continues to decline, I sell 1/4, 1/2, or all and get into something else. The big funds cannot do this easily or quickly so my stocks are trending much better than my mutual funds – even last week.

The on-line articles are wordy but the newsletter I get as a subscriber is great…just the facts.

Answer 3

I have in the past subscribed to one of the Motley Fool investment letters. I stuck with it for a year, but I did not really like the service. I do not think that they were well researched. They put out about 10 diffierent news letters and it appears to me that instead they would be better served and subscribers would too by putting out one and spending a little time doing better research. One of their recommendations was Yahoo last year. Check it out. See how well it has done.

But given the criticism, if you are looking for suggestions they do offer a couple monthly more or less that you can then research yourself and make a decision.

Answer 4

No one has found the Holy Grail. If you like their approach and can follow it, then their advice is probably as good as any. It seems to me they ridicule all development-stage companies as frauds, so if you want to find a penny stock before it skyrockets then they won't help you. They don't believe in setting stop-losses and will suggest averaging down. Most traders think this is insane but obviously some people with strong stomachs have made a lot of money with this approach. Finding a strategy that fits your psychology is more important than individual stock picks.

Answer 5

This penny stock service has years of proven experience. Ultimately it is the best service for beginners to use https://tr.im/P1hTF
You will have to wait between 3 and 10 days to get into the system in most cases. When I signed up it took 8 days. I wished it was faster, but if you can wait a week or two to start earn life changing money than you will have what it takes to make it in this business.

Answer 6

Penny stocks are loosely categorized companies with share prices of below $5 and with market caps of under $200 million. They are sometimes referred to as "the slot machines of the equity market" because of the money involved. There may be a good place for penny stocks in the portfolio of an experienced, advanced investor, however, if you follow this guide you will learn the most efficient strategies https://tr.im/fb19f
