In the wake of Google’s 12% drop ($400b), I was reading about bubbles on Motley Fool and found the portfolio advice shown in this screenshot. The article includes dynamic stock tickers embedded in the text. The article recommends protecting yourself from bubbles by holding such stocks as AMZN (-4.25%) and GOOG (-12.29%). Thanks, Motley Fool!

    Motley Fool is such a streaming pile. “Buy these hidden gem tech stocks by purchasing a subscription to our market intelligence report!” Yeah, okay. Spoiler alert: it’s more stabbing in the dark, vaguely educated guesses, and day late/dollar short. MF actually has some interesting journalism analysis, and then they go and shit in their own mouths with their level 1 market analysis subscriptions disguised as inside information.

      You know that the motley fool parent company is Citadel, an hedge fund that gains by tanking stocks? They can legally manipulate the market with this shitty site and grab money for free.

      disguised as inside information.

      And if they actually did have inside information … wouldn’t that be insider trading?
