“Motley Fool’s #1 Stock… overdue for more dramatic growth?”

The Foolies are really ramping up their advertising again, it seems — I haven’t had this many questions about a teaser in quite a while. The ad now is for their flagship Stock Advisor newsletter, and it teases “The Motley Fool’s #1 Stock”. Here’s how they get us started:

“The One Stock You Must Buy Before Gas Prices Soar”

“In the short time it took gas prices to shoot from $1.50 to $4 a gallon, this little-known stock made investors 951% richer.
“Now Goldman Sachs says oil is going to rocket right back to $147 — and you can bet $4 gas won’t be far behind.

“America’s Hidden Resource: Poised to hand you generous profits”

This teaser ad comes in for a newsletter I’ve written about many, many times over the past couple years, the Motley Fool Stock Advisor.

“The Motley Fool’s Next 10-Bagger”

Few terms get as much of a rise out of investors as “10 bagger”, the term popularized by Peter Lynch that refers to a stock that increases 10 times in value — and perhaps for good reason, since these kinds of hyper growth stories, even if they take a decade or more to unfold, are [...]

This ad from the Motley Fool has been around for a while, and they’re now giving away some of the teaser stock names for free — but they’re still keeping one “secret,” so I thought I’d revisit that part of the pitch and let you know who it is.
For those who don’t know what “Cloud [...]

The One Stock to Buy for the Next Ten Years

The Motley Fool is sending out an ad that claims to have chosen “The Only Stock to Own 2009-2019.”
Now there’s a promise, no? The assumption of almost all pundits and pontificators, myself included, is that this awful market might represent a remarkable buying opportunity — at least, an opportunity for those who make the [...]

“Recession-Proof Business Poised for 100% Gains” Motley Fool

The good folks at Motley Fool’s Stock Advisor newsletter have another teaser for us … they think they’ve got a “virtually recession-proof” stock for you to buy … in their words:
