Horrible hype on Fairfax

[KinAlberta]

This site just spews out the articles and some just makes your blood boil. (Note the guy's holdings at the bottom.  There should be far more disclosure and even some explanation that goes with such disclosure.)

 

 

 

Don’t Overthink It. Just Buy Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd.

Definitely strange that his thesis is to buy it and hold it when he only owns the preferred himself, but is that any worse than other authors who espouse buy/sell recommendations without putting their money where their mouth is?

 

Is having a position better than having no position at all and an "unbiased" view? I rarely pay attention to anything that motley fool puts out. Not because of these disclosures and issues with them, but just because most of the garbage they put out is pretty surface level stuff like that article.

Motley Fool is a waste of time.
