I Got 15GB of Free Gmail Storage Back Without Deleting a Thing
I've had my Gmail account since 2008, which means I've accumulated hundreds and thousands of unread emails. When I started to get the dreaded "Account storage is full" notification, I knew I needed to clean out my inbox. But I was overwhelmed by the thought of choosing between which messages to keep and which to delete. Then, just as I was ready to give up and start paying for extra Gmail storage, I had a better idea. I realized there was a way to get back 15GB of free storage while keeping all of my old emails, and it wouldn't cost me a penny. All I had to do was create a second Gmail account to store all of my current messages. There's no restriction on the number of free Google accounts you can own, which meant I could set one up as a dedicated archive account and then transfer all of my old emails to it. Transferring your Gmail messages is also a great strategy if you have a school or business Gmail account that you won't be able to access permanently. Most universities and businesses will deactivate your account once you are no longer a student or employee so if you want to view your old messages and files, you'll have to port them to a personal account before you lose access. Completing the whole process of transferring your Gmail messages to a new account doesn't take too long but it will depend on just how many messages you have. I'll walk you through the simple process of transferring your emails from your old account to a new one (including the important step of backing everything up first).

Fifteen gigabytes of free storage may sound like a lot when you make a Gmail account but it gets filled up quickly. For starters, the 15GB isn't just used for email: It also includes the files you've saved in your Google Drive and Google Photos. If you frequently send or receive messages that contain large files such as videos, or if you find yourself uploading a lot of pictures and videos to your Google Photos, then it won't be long before you'll see the "Account storage is full" notification. This means that you will no longer be able to send or receive emails on this account, so you'll want to do something ASAP. Tips and tricks for using Gmail Tips and tricks for using Gmail Click to unmute Google Introduces Gemini AI Upgrades to Gmail and Chat The quickest solution is to upgrade to a Google One account. Even if you choose the least expensive plan -- 100GB for $20 a year -- you'll still end up paying money to store old emails that you might not even need anymore. If you don't want to buy more storage, you can always delete your old emails. You can get back a surprising amount of storage space by putting large files in the trash. Gmail makes it easy for you to identify and delete files by size. Even so, that option might seem tedious; maybe you don't want to spend hours sifting through correspondence from a decade or more ago, deciding which memories to keep and which to get rid of forever. There's always the option to download large files to your desktop before you delete them from your Google account but at some point you'll probably run into the same issue with your local files and have to manage the storage space on your device. This brings us to our "nuclear option:" Transferring all your emails to a new Gmail account. How to transfer your Gmail messages to a new email account Before you start the Gmail transfer process, I recommend that you back up your emails. You can do this by downloading your emails either to your computer or an external hard drive. You can delete the backup after you finish transferring the emails to your new account if you like but it's always a good idea to have an extra copy stored locally. To back up your Gmail messages, go to Google Takeout. Using my test Gmail account that held about 75,000 messages, I got a download from Google Takeout in about 2 hours. Once you've saved a copy of your emails, you're ready to begin transferring them. Here are the steps you need to take: 1. Start by logging into your original Gmail account, clicking the "gear" icon in the top right and clicking See all settings. 2. Select the Forwarding POP/IMAP tab and then select the option Enable POP for all mail (POP stands for Post Office Protocol). 3. You'll have several options under When messages are accessed with POP. To automatically delete the emails from your original account after the transfer, select delete Gmail's copy. 4. Select Save Changes. Now it's time to create your new account and transfer all your messages there: If you haven't already done so, create your brand new, inbox-zero Gmail account -- we'll call this your archive account. 1. Login to your new archive account, click the gear icon at the top and select See all settings. 2. Select the Accounts and Import tab at the top, then select Add a mail account next to Check mail from other accounts. 3. In the pop-up window, enter the name of your original Gmail account. Select Next. 4. Select Import emails from my other account (POP3) and select Next again. 5. Enter the password of your original Gmail account. You might also be required to create a Google app password (see note below). 6. Select 995 under Port. 7. Check these 3 boxes: Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail, Label incoming messages, Archive incoming messages (Skip the Inbox) 8. Select Add Account. You'll probably need to create a Google app password to transfer Gmail messages I tested this Gmail message transfer process twice and both times the standard password for the Gmail accounts did not work. After a bit of research, I determined that I'd need to create a temporary "app password" to sync the accounts. Google app passwords are 16-digit passcodes created for "less secure" apps or devices to access your Google account. They work exactly like your Google password. If your regular Google password doesn't work for syncing Gmail accounts, visit to create an app password. Simply create a name for the password -- I used "Transfer Bulk Email" -- and then hit the Create button. You'll get a pop-up window with your new 16-digit passcode. Once you've created the app password, return to step 6 of the instructions above and use that new app password instead of your usual password. Important: Google will only display your app password once. After you've created it, you can't ask to see it again so be sure to write it down or otherwise record it after it's been created. Google's own Help Center mentions that "app passwords aren't recommended and are unnecessary in most cases." So once you've completed transferring your Gmail messages, I recommend deleting your app password. What happens after my Gmail accounts are synced? Once you've successfully linked your new Gmail archive account to your original account, your emails should begin to transfer automatically. The process could take several hours or days, depending on how many emails you have. In my test account with about 75,000 messages, I found that it took Gmail about 2 full days to transfer all of them from the original account to the new archived mail account. Important: After transferring your Gmail messages to your archived mail account, your original Gmail account will place all those messages in the Trash folder, which you'll need to empty manually. Clearing out those 75,000 messages from the Trash took about an hour. Before transferring Gmail messages, my test account was using a little more than 12GB, or 80%, of Google's free 15GB. After transferring, the account was only using 0.66GB, of which 0.06GB was from Gmail. What Gmail messages won't be transferred? I found that Gmail transferred all of my messages except for two categories -- Drafts and Spam. You'll need to decide what to do with your Drafts manually. Spam messages are automatically deleted every 30 days so you can let Gmail handle that or go into the Spam folder yourself after transferring your mail and delete or forward those messages. Once all of your emails have been imported to your new account, enjoy the experience of inbox zero. You've given your original account a new lease on life. At this point, there are two last steps: You'll want to stop the automatic transfer process so that you can continue using your original account and you'll want to delete that app password if you had to make one. 1. Login to your new account, go into your Settings and select See all settings. 2. Select the Accounts and Import tab, and then select delete for your original account (under Check mail from other accounts.) 3. When prompted to Confirm delete mail account, select OK. If you had to create a Google app password and want to delete it now, go back to and click the trashcan icon next to the password you created. Congrats, you're finished. One important final note: Google will delete accounts that have been inactive for more than two years. So make sure you don't completely ignore all your old emails after transferring them. If you don't plan to regularly use your archive account to send email, you can still keep the account active by signing in at least once every two years.

KBH Q2 Deep Dive: Lower Guidance and Market Headwinds Shape 2025 Outlook
Homebuilder KB Home (NYSE:KBH) reported revenue ahead of Wall Street's expectations in Q2 CY2025, but sales fell by 10.5% year on year to $1.53 billion. On the other hand, the company's full-year revenue guidance of $6.4 billion at the midpoint came in 2.4% below analysts' estimates. Its GAAP profit of $1.51 per share was 2.7% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy KBH? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $1.53 billion vs analyst estimates of $1.51 billion (10.5% year-on-year decline, 1.6% beat) EPS (GAAP): $1.51 vs analyst estimates of $1.47 (2.7% beat) Adjusted EBITDA: $144.9 million vs analyst estimates of $164.2 million (9.5% margin, 11.8% miss) The company dropped its revenue guidance for the full year to $6.4 billion at the midpoint from $6.8 billion, a 5.9% decrease Operating Margin: 8.8%, down from 11.4% in the same quarter last year Backlog: $2.29 billion at quarter end, down 26.7% year on year Market Capitalization: $3.82 billion KB Home's second quarter results for 2025 were met with a negative market reaction, as several evolving market headwinds weighed on performance. Management pointed to subdued demand during the spring selling season, with CEO Jeffrey Mezger citing that "affordability challenges have persisted compounded by the variability in mortgage interest rates, which remain elevated as well as macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty." Operationally, the company highlighted faster build times and reduced direct costs as partial offsets, but acknowledged that consumer caution and higher resale inventory pressured new order volumes and operating margins. Looking ahead, KB Home's reduced full-year guidance reflects management's expectations for continued softness in homebuyer demand and ongoing margin pressures. The company aims to align its cost structure with lower volumes, while maintaining flexibility to adjust pricing and production pace by community. President Rob McGibney noted that "our strategy focuses on delivering the most compelling value and improving affordability with transparency," but also acknowledged the risk of continued demand weakness if mortgage rates and consumer confidence do not improve. Management signaled an intent to prioritize operational efficiency and shareholder returns as they navigate this uncertain environment. Management attributed second quarter performance to faster build times and cost controls, but noted that consumer confidence and affordability remain key challenges impacting order flow and revenue outlook. Build times improved: The company reduced average build times by 7 days quarter-over-quarter, returning to pre-pandemic levels. Management believes this operational gain allows for quicker inventory turnover and the ability to close more homes within the year, supporting delivery targets even as demand softens. Sales strategy adjustments: KB Home shifted away from offering incentives and instead focused on adjusting base pricing at the community level. While this approach drove strong net orders in March, management reported a decline in April and May as consumers grew more apprehensive about the economy and mortgage rates. Community opening delays: Delays in municipal approvals for new communities pushed back several planned openings, which management estimates cost 'a couple of hundred' net orders in the quarter. They are now emphasizing better coordination with local authorities to mitigate future disruptions. Cost reduction efforts: Direct costs per home started in the quarter were 3.2% lower year-over-year, driven by value engineering, supply chain negotiations, and simplified studio offerings. However, savings were partially offset by higher land costs and reduced pricing power. Land investment moderation: The company scaled back new land spending and canceled contracts for roughly 9,700 lots that no longer met return criteria. Management stated that this measured approach is intended to preserve flexibility and align future community growth with evolving market conditions. Management expects near-term performance to be shaped by cautious consumer sentiment, affordability pressures, and disciplined cost management strategies. Sustained affordability challenges: Elevated mortgage rates and higher resale inventory continue to weigh on buyer confidence, leading management to anticipate subdued order volumes and a slower absorption pace in the coming quarters. The company's pricing strategy remains flexible in response to local market dynamics. Margin and cost discipline: Operating margins are expected to be pressured by reduced pricing power, less favorable regional mix, and higher land costs. Management is targeting further reductions in build times and overhead expenses to help offset these headwinds and maintain profitability. Shareholder return focus: With lower land investment planned for the remainder of the year, KB Home intends to accelerate share repurchases, supported by a strong balance sheet and liquidity. Management views this as a means to enhance earnings per share and return on equity in a challenging market backdrop. In the quarters ahead, the StockStory team will monitor (1) the pace of net order recovery as consumer sentiment and mortgage rates evolve, (2) the company's ability to sustain further reductions in build times and direct costs, and (3) the effectiveness of its strategy to moderate land investment while maintaining a robust pipeline for future community growth. Execution on pricing flexibility and inventory management will also be important indicators of operational resilience. KB Home currently trades at $52.87, in line with $53.36 just before the earnings. In the wake of this quarter, is it a buy or sell? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Market indices reached historic highs following Donald Trump's presidential victory in November 2024, but the outlook for 2025 is clouded by new trade policies that could impact business confidence and growth.

AX Q1 Deep Dive: Loan Pipeline Growth, Deposit Cost Control, and Competitive Pricing Pressure
Digital banking company Axos Financial (NYSE:AX) reported Q1 CY2025 results exceeding the market's revenue expectations , with sales up 4.8% year on year to $308.8 million. Its non-GAAP profit of $1.81 per share was 4.3% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy AX? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $308.8 million vs analyst estimates of $305.7 million (4.8% year-on-year growth, 1% beat) Adjusted EPS: $1.81 vs analyst estimates of $1.74 (4.3% beat) Adjusted Operating Income: $147.8 million vs analyst estimates of $158.1 million (47.9% margin, 6.5% miss) Market Capitalization: $4.2 billion Axos Financial's first quarter results modestly exceeded Wall Street's top-line and bottom-line expectations, with management pointing to robust deposit growth and continued expansion in key lending verticals as major drivers. CEO Gregory Garrabrants cited 'double-digit year-over-year growth in earnings per share and book value per share for the 10th consecutive quarter,' highlighting strong performance in the company's core banking operations. Executives also acknowledged some competitive pressures in loan pricing, particularly in commercial and industrial lending, which partially offset gains from higher net interest margins and targeted cost reductions. Looking ahead, management is focused on maintaining disciplined loan growth, managing deposit costs, and navigating increased competition in select lending markets. Garrabrants noted that Axos is 'optimistic' about returning to its targeted loan growth range, supported by new team hires in commercial and specialty verticals and continued enhancements to its product suite. However, the company remains cautious about external headwinds, including prepayment trends in certain loan categories and ongoing pressure on loan spreads, suggesting that margin management and balanced growth will be key themes in the coming quarters. Management emphasized several factors shaping Q1 performance, including strategic deposit growth, margin management, and competitive dynamics in lending. Deposit Growth Across Verticals: Axos achieved $614 million in deposit growth, primarily from interest-bearing demand and savings accounts. Growth was diversified across consumer, small business, treasury management, and specialty verticals, supporting funding stability and flexibility in loan origination. Loan Book Expansion and Mix: Overall loan balances grew slightly, with strength in commercial and industrial (C&I) lending and single-family mortgage warehouse activity offsetting declines in multifamily and auto loans. Elevated prepayments in certain categories continued to weigh on net loan growth. Net Interest Margin Tailwinds: Net interest margin (NIM) rose to 5.17%, boosted by early payoff of FDIC-acquired loans. Excluding this, NIM was 4.87%. Management expects future NIM to stabilize within a 4.25%–4.35% range, with further benefit from deposit repricing initiatives. Competitive Loan Pricing: CEO Garrabrants acknowledged increased competition and pricing pressure, especially in club and syndicate lending deals. The company anticipates needing to make minor pricing concessions to maintain loan growth targets. Operational Investments and Expense Discipline: Recent hiring in commercial and specialty banking contributed to higher operating expenses, but management is focused on cost control as these new teams ramp up productivity. Technology investments, such as the white-label banking platform for advisors, are expected to streamline operations and support scalable growth. Management's outlook centers on disciplined loan growth, margin preservation, and continued expansion in deposit verticals amid a competitive lending environment. Loan Growth Pipeline: Axos expects organic loan growth in the high single digits to low teens, driven by new hires in commercial lending and a healthy pipeline across multifamily, C&I, and specialty verticals. Management cautioned that prepayment trends and pricing pressure could moderate net growth. Deposit Cost Management: The company is proactively repricing consumer deposits and leveraging business banking relationships to control funding costs. Management believes deposit cost discipline is critical for sustaining net interest margin if interest rates decline. Competitive Dynamics and Risk: Increased competition for quality lending opportunities may continue to compress spreads, particularly in syndicated and club deals. Management also highlighted potential headwinds from loan payoffs and the need to balance growth against prudent credit risk management. In future quarters, the StockStory team will watch (1) Axos's ability to deliver consistent loan growth despite intensified pricing competition, (2) the effectiveness of deposit repricing and expansion into new verticals in managing funding costs, and (3) the operational scaling of recently launched platforms like the white-label advisor offering. Execution in C&I and specialty lending, as well as cost discipline, will also be key performance indicators. Axos Financial currently trades at $75.48, up from $72.43 just before the earnings.
