The last time that I checked: the agreement was that the Motley Fool had a copyright and that the author had a copyright as well. The Motley Fool can use posted material in their own promotions. The writer can charge a royalty fee to anybody other than the Motley Fool who uses his material.
The details can be found in the written material at the site. There are some contradictory statements that make it sound as if writers give up all of their rights. Posts on Improve the Fool make it clear that people can sell their own material. They just cannot restrict the Motley Fool's use of it. [This issue comes up about one a year.]
Have fun.
