How the "Market Misfits" Can Double Your Money in 2018

by

It's the time of year when many of us like to rewatch "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." Even if you've never seen it, you've probably heard of the Island of Misfit Toys – the destination for defective toys deemed unworthy for people's homes.

Now, this movie is the perfect trading and investing reminder to look for misfit stocks. Generally, these are the ones that aren't selling as well as they had in the past.

Sears Is About to Take Its Last Gasp; Here's How You'll Profit

by
