BEST STOCK NEWSLETTER for the last 5 Years (July 24, 2021 UPDATE)

One of last year's Motley Fool Stock Picks is up 648% and 6 others have already doubled!

We have been tracking ALL of the Motley Fool stock picks since January 2016. That's over 5 years and over 120 stock picks. As of July 24, 2021, 19 of their 24 stocks picks from 2020 are up with an average return of 93% compared to the SP500's 41%.

In addition, their 2019 stock picks are up 126%; their 2018 stock picks are up 253%; their 2017 stocks are up 223% and amazingly their 2016 stock picks are up 462%. The Motley Fool has done so well because they have quickly identified stocks each year that will perform well in the current environment. They adapt and constantly pick stocks before everyone else realizes the opportunities. Now they are starting to pick stocks that will do well in the post-Covid world and Biden presidency.
