Despite past issues, MarketWise's recent 33% stock surge and improved operations justify upgrading the rating from ‘hold' to ‘buy' for risk-tolerant investors. Key financial metrics show mixed results: revenue and subscribers declined, but net profits and adjusted operating cash flow improved significantly. Preliminary Q1 2025 results indicate a positive trend in billings, suggesting potential stabilization and early signs of a turnaround.
