I haven’t written about Martin Weiss and one of his picks in a little while, and Weiss Research is now promoting a special conference call and “inner circle” investment group that will identify his team’s best picks for 2010. Including, as apparently one of his favorites, a gold stock. Here’s the intro to the ad: […]

“More Precious than Gold: Technology Metals” (Leeb)
Dr. Stephen Leeb is jumping on the rare earths bandwagon, already crowded with newsletter pundits of every stripe, and promising that these “more precious than gold” elements will “outperform the hottest stocks.” The argument is a fairly basic one, and we’ve heard it many times: China controls most of the world’s supply of rare earth […]

Louis Navellier is at it again, telling us that he’s found another hot momentum stock … “Grab it Now Before it Delivers another 400% Earnings Growth” But today’s note from your friendly neighborhood Stock Gumshoe is as much a cautionary tale as it is a deciphering of a Navellier teaser — I’ll tell you the […]

I remain entirely surprised by the extent of the stock market rally this year, and by the optimism of the investing punditocracy as they predict massive gains ahead in the markets as the economy improves in 2010. I’m no macro maven, and I certainly can’t predict the future any better than anyone else, but I […]

“Motley Fool’s #1 Stock… overdue for more dramatic growth?”
The Foolies are really ramping up their advertising again, it seems — I haven’t had this many questions about a teaser in quite a while. The ad now is for their flagship Stock Advisor newsletter, and it teases “The Motley Fool’s #1 Stock”. Here’s how they get us started: “While America is captivated by the […]

Peter Schiff’s newsletter for his Euro Pacific Capital brokerage firm usually includes a couple “teaser” picks — of course, to get the name of the stock you’ve got to talk to one of his brokers. And what is the job of a broker? To sell you something, naturally … so if you don’t feel like […]

Toby Smith is a gasbag … just wanted to get that out of the way before I talk about a few of his microcap teasers. I’ve seen him talk a few times, and he’s the red-faced jolly guy who can’t stop talking, if he’s at an investment conference he’ll be out in the hall after […]

I usually reserve my new articles for the Irregulars on Fridays and publish them in the Friday File — and I’ll be doing that, too, when I do my more detailed writeup today. But I’ve had a bunch of folks ask me about this silver-buying program from Eric Roseman at The Sovereign Society, so I […]

Nancy Zambell, who edits the Buried Treasure Under $10 newsletter, is now teasing us that she’s found one of the “early winners of the great recovery” — that Greek shipper that can “Double your money — but you must act fast!” And of course, you simply must subscribe to her newsletter.

After not looking at a Louis Navellier ad for quite a while, here I run across several fun ones in just a couple weeks — we saw his promise of remarkable momentum and a double from his favorite handgun stock, Smith & Wesson, about a month ago (hasn’t happened … yet, to be charitable). And […]
8 Comments Read MoreAdding to Altius Minerals holdings
I wrote some nice things about Altius — a company I’ve owned since the Spring — following a Dan Ferris teaser a few weeks back that told us about “Newfoundland’s Golden Mountain”, and today I picked up a few more shares, increasing my position by roughly 80% at a price of $6.78. Why now? I […]
