Another teaser pitch from the Motley Fool Canada for us to peruse this morning… they’re pitching another social media company that is apparently taking over the world, in the wake of TikTok’s dramatic surge in 2020, and, like TikTok, it’s coming out of Asia but spreading to new markets. The ad is for a big […]

This ad actually came through a couple weeks ago, but it caught my eye this morning when I was trying to decide what to cover today… mostly because of the big Peter Thiel pitch they use to get our attention. The ad is from the Motley Fool’s Stock Advisor Canada service (C$99/yr), which essentially tries […]
This one came through as a bit of a challenge for the Thinkolator, but I think we’ve got a solid answer for you… This tempting note yesterday from Motley Fool Stock Advisor Canada majordomo Iain Butler is what drove a bunch of questions our way: “… sometimes there’s a stock I keep coming back to… […]
Is there a secret electric vehicle leader hiding in the Great White North? What’s up with this latest teaser pitch from Motley Fool Canada about an “under-the-radar Canadian disruptor?” Let’s check it out, shall we? The ad is for the Motley Fool’s Stock Advisor Canada service (offered at C$99/yr), which is the Canadian version of […]
Today we cast our gaze to the Great White North — a pitch about a small-cap Canadian cybersecurity stock has sent a few questions my way, so it’s time for the Thinkolator to convert to metric and get us some answers for this Motley Fool teaser. The pitch is from Motley Fool Stock Advisor Canada, […]
This is the intro from a Motley Fool Canada email I got yesterday: “It looks like you missed a pretty huge announcement that Iain Butler, our Chief Investment Advisor, made just yesterday. Since this could be a massive catalyst for your portfolio, I wanted to send you one final alert to make sure you don’t […]
The Motley Fool loves to use terms like “double down” and “triple down” in its ads for some reason, and this latest one basically extends a previous Motley Fool US pitch to Motley Fool Canada… but I’ll cover it quickly for you because the questions do pile up about these ideas. The pitch is in […]
Time for another trip up north, to view the latest teaser pitch from the Motley Fool Canada for a recent IPO that they think might be the next opportunity to get Shopify-like returns. And they at least come by the Shopify (SHOP) reference honestly — Iain Butler and the folks at Motley Fool Stock Advisor […]
I’ve been seeing ads for the Motley Fool’s Stock Advisor Canada service recently that catch the eye… mostly because they promise what we all want, the ability to find that one stock that will turn your small investment into a life-changing fortune. They do this by starting with the story of “Forty-dollar Frank” …. “When […]
I wrote on Monday about a Motley Fool Canada pitch for an Artificial Intelligence stock, and that tease pointed at one of two smallish tech companies from Canada’s Silicon Valley (Waterloo, Ontario)… I speculated that it was likely OpenText (OTEX) that Stock Advisor Canada was hinting at, given the clues dropped, but today we’ve got […]
I’ve got a soft spot in my heart (or maybe my head, depends who you ask) for the Motley Fool’s old “Superbrand” ads — one of the very first teaser pitches I covered when I started this website in the Spring of 2007 was the Gardner brothers’ teaser for the “New American Superbrand”. That ad […]
Several years ago, Tom and David Gardner at the Motley Fool had a pitch called “The $2.2 Trillion War for Your Living Room,” all about what they described as both the “Death of TV” and “Television 2.0” — it was widely distributed and they used roughly the same ad, off and on, for about four […]
Today’s teaser happens to also concern a stock that I’ve been curious about, so I’m taking the opportunity to follow the hints down the rabbit hole and do a little chewing on whatever it is I find down there. The teaser ad comes in from Motley Fool Canada in an ad for their Stock Advisor […]
The Canadian branch of the Motley Fool has been pitching a cloud computing stock that they say is “breaking out” right now, and the spiel is all about the next transition in cloud computing, from “general cloud services” to those that are specifically designed for one industry or customer group. So what’s the stock? Well, […]
Today we point the compass toward Santa Claus and head up a few miles to cross the border into Canada, where we find the latest teaser pitch coming in from Motley Fool Canada for their Stock Advisor Canada newsletter… the ad comes from Iain Butler, the Chief Investment Adviser for the Canadian version of the […]
No, it’s not 3D printing (that’s what the Fool was pitching for the next “industrial revolution” a few years ago). Thankfully. That hype parade seems to have been left behind for now, though maybe it will come back if the business opportunity in 3d printing is better someday. Today the pitch is about “Machine Vision.” […]
There’s been quite a bit of buzz about the rumored “Apple Car” over the last year or so — with some folks getting ahead of themselves and anticipating an Apple buyout of Tesla, or a new Apple car on the road within this decade… but even if we aren’t going to see an iCar on […]
Usually when you hear “little-known Canadian stock” you think, “hey, that’s probably some miner lying about their assay samples out of a storefront office in Vancouver” … but this one’s a little different. To start with, it’s not a mining stock, and has nothing to do with gold or tar sands or pipelines or any […]
