What the heck is the “32% Clause?”
Mike Williams, who edits the True Income newsletter from Stansberry & Associates, has been trying to get new subscribers by promising to reveal the secrets of the “32% clause” that can pay you a huge annual income stream. So what on earth is he talking about? Here’s how the ad begins: “Introducing: A completely legal […]

The Motley Fool Global Gains folks recently went to Australia on a stock-finding trip, and they came back with a few recommendations for their subscribers that editor Tim Hanson is also teasing for the rest of us — with an eye, naturally, to adding to those subscriber rolls. And certainly, Australia has been one of […]
3 Comments Read MoreRebuilding Sandstorm Metals position
As i mentioned a couple weeks ago, Sandstorm Metals & Energy has again gotten down to what seems like a reasonable valuation — and I have added more to my holdings to bring it back up to a reasonable-size position in my portfolio (not in the top ten holdings, but not trivial). I don’t have […]

I’ve held shares in the Loews-managed Boardwalkl Pipeline (BWP) for a few years, and I still think this MLP is reasonably valued, if no longer a bargain — but for tax and personal reasons I’m now selling all of my BWP shares. I may buy back in at some point, though id probably wait until […]

Yesterday I wrote to you about a newsletter that was calling for a short squeeze on a little Chinese stock, and today we’re again looking on the short side — though this time, it’s a short pick from Dan Amoss, who thinks he’s got the next NASDAQ stock that’s “headed straight for a body bag.” […]

Larry Isen’s “Greatest Short Squeeze of All Time”
To be honest with you, I had never heard of Larry Isen before — apparently, he edits a newsletter called Emerging China Stocks, and he has been focused on small cap names in China for at least a year or two, based on his claims of past performance. The reason he came to my attention […]

“Two Stocks You Must Buy Before Gas Blows Past $4 Per Gallon…”
The Motley Fool copywriters seem to love this general type of pitch — “Must buy X before Y happens!” — they used it heavily for their multiple teases of American Tower, among others (buy before the iPhone 4, then buy before Verizon gets the iPhone … I assume we’ll also see it again when the […]

“Double Your Money on this Activist Stock” (Marc Lichtenfeld)
Last year Marc Lichtenfeld started promoting a new service in which he promised to identify “active shares” that effectively let you choose your own price — and although he had plenty of hype in that letter that sounded utterly foolish, as usual, he was at least partly right about the stock’s performance (he got the […]

Today, for our Friday pleasure, I thought I’d dig into a teaser for a newsletter that you can’t subscribe to right now even if you want to — how sexy and exclusive is that?! Actually, the teaser came out in a very abbreviated and clue-light form in an ad for the “re-opening” of a Motley […]

“Farming for Profits: The #1 Stock of 2011”
If you’re going to start your ad off with a line like this: “One Stock is the Difference between a Good 2011 and a Rolling-in-the-Dough 2011 … AND YOU DON’T OWN IT!” Well, you’re going to get the Gumshoe’s attention. I haven’t had a good “roll in the dough” since Scrooge McDuck invited me over […]

Well, it won’t surprise you at all to hear that I like Sprott Resource Lending (SILU), since I wrote glowingly about them in my “idea of the month” article just a couple weeks ago — but now that my trading restriction has expired, I’ve used some of the money that I freed up by selling […]
Leave a comment Read More“Saudis to Quit Oil Business?” Penny Shale Firms
Frank Curzio is tantalizing us to subscribe to his Penny Stock Specialist newsletter (Stansberry & Assoc.) by teasing about a few penny stocks in the shale gas business — but of course, that’s not enough, there has to be a huge back story as well. And the story this time, should you choose to sit […]
