The rental car business: The best or the worst?

  The Rental Car Business: The Best or the Worst? Dear reader, Happy Monday! I hope my U.S. readers had a wonderful long weekend to celebrate the Fourth of July. As many of you know, I’m in Europe for the next few weeks working on research and my latest book. So this week’s thoughts from abroad come from Madrid, Spain. Europe is extremely busy right now, with a record number of tourists expected this year. The numbers will be well above the pre-pandemic highs set in 2019. And that’s despite high costs, flight delays, sweltering temperatures, and even a bit of overcrowding. In today’s [video update]( I want to talk about the rental car business. It’s either the best business in the world… or the worst. I’ll let you decide after I share some of my recent experiences with you. I also dive into two rental car stocks that have struggled since 2021. Is now the time to buy? Or could it be the end of the road for these companies? I’ll give you all the details on [today’s video update](. Click here to watch it now. Here’s to the future, [McCall's Signature] Matt McCall Editor, Market Insights [Check Out My Latest Podcast]( At the start of every year, analysts and talking heads put out their predictions for the year ahead. But I have found that most prognosticators are pretty bad at predicting what things will look like just 12 months in the future. So on [the latest episode of the SteadyTrade Podcast]( Tim Bohen and I dive into the first half of 2024 and discuss how things played out compared to forecasts. We also highlight which stocks led the way and which sectors proved themselves to be leaders through the first six months of the year. We provide our expectations for the economy, the presidential election, and the stock market through the remainder of 2024. And of course, we mention a few stocks worth adding to your watch list.
