Worse than seeking alpha and they are pretty bad so this gives you an idea of how good this place. Its on massive clickbait mine. None of the free info is usefull
Click bait that's all. They provide no value. I wish I could give them negative stars. No wonder millennial are avoiding the stock market. Having to put up with charlatans like this simply too much
Great investment advice. I would highly recommend it if you enjoy investing on your own. Stock Advisor has a great track record.
The free information is literally useless and every article is nothing but a trap to try to lure to pay for something equally meaningless. If you buy one product they keep pushing you to buy more. I tried their service and cancelled during the grace period and believe it took several attempts to get that so-called risk free trial cancelled. The paid information was worthless, you could do as well by going to yahoofinance and we all know that place is a swamp
They try to sell you everything under the sun. Every article is basically a gimmick to try to get you to buy something. And if you buy something it does not stop there, they plague you with more emails trying to get you to buy even more.
Will go there only when forced to
The ads so intrusive and pushy that if you are naive you could easily be tricked into paying for something that is one order short of being crap. For basic data this site is okay but be ready to put up with a lot intrusive and sneaky look ads.
You are better of by going to contrarian sites such as
Goldseek.com
Tacticalinvestor.com
Safehaven.com
Marketoracle
Too many click-bait articles, the title has nothing to with the subject matter. Its really annoying when the title says A but the subject discusses B and they have nothing in common. Yahoo finance is a better source as is talkmarkets.com
For those looking for something contrarian then tacticalinvestor.com is quite a good source for financial insights but as they dont follow the conventional line of thinking.
A good place for finding stock data as in a screener is finviz.com
There are so many gimmicky ads that are sent to entice you to become a member, but, looking at the past stock recommendations and the timelines, it's not very good at valuing stock at all.
Site is okay for investors who want to do some very basic diligence on companies, but content is very shallow and sometimes nonfactual
I do not like the lost leader factor they use. Click on for three free tips! You listen for 30 minutes to balony and then they say we can not give you the tips but if you buy our product we will tell you. I would probably buy it if you gave me a winner instead of trying to "FOOL ME".
Motley Fool doles out stock trading wisdom but it's very unclear if anyone benefits outside the owners of Motley Fool. A smart investor might buy an index fund and waste their time somewhere else.
These "fools" should more closely monitor and approve their content. I hate nothing more than seeing these articles populate on Yahoo finance and it's by someone who doesn't have a clue about how markets work.
