The Motley Fool's July rally picks are trailing the S&P 500 by 1.5 points after 3 days

3 Days Later — Jul 3, 2026

How are The Motley Fool's July 2026 stock picks performing?

Three days in, The Motley Fool's July picks are down an average of 1.6%, lagging the S&P 500's 0.1% decline by 1.5 percentage points. Only one of the three stocks is outperforming the index.

Microsoft is the standout, up 1.6% since publication. The other two picks are pulling the average lower, though specific returns on those names aren't breaking out individually at this early checkpoint.

This is an extremely short tracking window. Stock movements over a few trading days rarely signal anything about longer-term performance, particularly for picks positioned as rally candidates over weeks or months.
