Three months ago, in early April of this year, I wrote a bullish article regarding a fairly small bank by the name of Pathward Financial (NASDAQ:CASH). Of course, small as relative. For context, the company has, as of this writing, a market capitalization of $1.14 billion. Back then, the size of the business was a bit smaller.

That’s well above the 5.2% increase seen by the S&P 500 over the same window of time. With such a…

I woke up this morning to a financial “headline” that, while not uncommon, grated on me even more today. It’s a misleading question, asked not by a curious consumer but by a massive financial institution, that is surely designed to act as a lure for transactional sales more than a tool for educational edification. The seemingly harmless question that inspired this rant—I mean, post: “Should I buy gold?” But that’s the wrong question. In fact, just about any financial question that starts with these three words is likely nothing more than a sales pitch waiting to happen. Should I buy……

We’ve got our July Monthly Meeting this Wednesday and are preparing an exciting update of something we talked about at our annual gathering back in February . Join us live at noon ET. In the meantime, we received some terrific feedback from members after revealing in late May five stocks we would buy right here, right now.

Measuring about half the length of a Ford F-150, Kei trucks look almost like toys in comparison to your standard pickup truck. But for a car so tiny, you might be surprised at the massive following that they command. Kei trucks, built to satisfy Japanese light automobile regulations and known as “keitora” (meaning “light truck”) in Japan, are vehicles that have been enjoying a surge in popularity in the automobile market. Sales of Kei trucks tripled in the last five years, with around 7,500 total imported just last year, according to data from Japan Used Motor Vehicle. Meanwhile, auto experts…
