Listen up! Fools have things to say.

On today's edition of "MarketFoolery," the new daily podcast from The Motley Fool:

  • Egypt's stock market has been closed since last Thursday. So why were investors snapping up shares of the Market Vectors Egypt Index ETF (NYSE: EGPT) on Monday? Is this really the best bet for investors looking at that region?
  • Google (Nasdaq: GOOG) accuses Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) of copying its search results. Microsoft is all like, "Whatevs!" Google yells, "Cut it out!" (Oh girls, girls, you're both pretty. Can I go home now?)
  • Mattel (NYSE: MAT) had a great fourth quarter thanks in no small part to guys like me buying Monster High dolls for their kids. Beyond the financials, however, lies our Barbie Trivia quiz. Listen now and I promise you will never look at Barbie or Ken the same way again.
