Their recent top touted stock was Markel, which actually was a 2003 pick as well. I do subscribe but won't reveal their top 11 list for 2008. Suffice to say, if you use Biz Week or Mstar screening tools for FCF, ROE and PEG you'll find the same picks. Here's a hint, most are $5-$20b market cap. The Fool analysis is pretty superficial, not worth paying for mo, I won't again, read Financial Times instead re stocks that pass your screens, it's a much better way to invest, you tend to get better buy in prices as well.

Motley Fool gives good general advice. Their stock picks are generally mediocre.

Don't listen to anything the Motley Fools says. They are scammers, trying to steal your money. Block them or mark their emails as spam.

Even if MF gave good advice I wouldn't bother..

I believe they are talking about their investor's guide to 2008 stocks.
I don't know how others feel, but I think their ads are wretched appeals to fear and greed and are just one more black mark on an industry filled with them.
