Porter Stansberry is probably the best marketer out there in the financial newsletter world, and has access to the biggest email lists both within his company and in partnership with all of Agora’s other subsidiaries and affiliates… so when one of his ideas or letters gets a big marketing push, it tends to have a […]

Lots of folks have been asking me about this latest “Magic Stock” that’s been hinted at by Porter Stansberry in his ads for Stansberry’s Investment Advisory… and I can see why. It sounds delightful — and most of the premise is based on the fact that these “magic” stocks that can grow profitably forever, with […]
OK, I’ll cut right to the core point: The US economy is going to boom so aggressively over the next few years that whoever will be president is going to get re-elected, even if it means amending the constitution to ensure we get to keep Obama in office. So that’s the premise — the pitch […]
Travis and others, I have many subs with Stansberry Publishing, but I can’t tell if your article on the GS of White Trash is the same pitch Porter is throwing with his next forever stock. He begins with the age old tale of the KO buy by the banker and then loaning money if folks […]
Jeff Opdyke has a pretty inflammatory ad going around these days for The Sovereign Investor, it’s all about how the consistent export of gold from the US — as reported in form FT-900 — will lead to America experiencing it’s “next 9/11” moment in April of this year. The basic argument is that the US […]
“A Market Insider and Lifelong Friend Hands Me the Best Opportunity of 2009 “‘I can’t imagine a better stock to buy.’” That’s how the newest ad launches for Porter Stansberry’s Inside Strategist, a newsletter that has churned through at least two editors in the last few years, but which is now apparently run by Porter […]
Does anyone have information on this please?
I’m sure a great many of you have received the ad for Porter Stansberry’s Inside Strategist newsletter — it’s all about a California tech company that’s going to release news on Tuesday next week, and that Porter thinks could jump by 50% if they release the news he expects (or drop like a stone, of […]
Porter Stansberry has gone all-in these days — he retired from Stansberry Research a couple years ago (though he’s still a large owner of Marketwise (MKTW), Stansberry’s parent company that went public through a SPAC merger), and earlier this year he launched a little Substack subscription with a few of his old friends, called The […]
Porter Stansberry is great at spinning yarns from finance history to build his arguments about current opportunities, and this “AI Die Up” is no different — he compares the enthusiasm about the “disruptive new technology” of artificial intelligence to the boom in Great Plains cattle ranching after the Civil war, which created boomtowns from Kansas […]
Monthly newsletter recommends undervalued, “blue chip” and “next boom” stocks. Portfolio holds about 20-30 positions and is billed as conservative. Formerly edited by Porter Stansberry.
Today I’m looking for the first time at a teaser ad from Bill Shaw, who is the Senior Analyst for Stansberry’s precious metals service — that service is now called Stansberry Gold & Silver Investor, and it’s one of the “no refunds, get a portfolio all at once” services that Stansberry has been pushing lately. […]
This is a Stansbury tease that is offered in the Investment Advisory.
This isn’t really about a new teaser pitch, but I’ve had lots of readers ask what’s going on with the flurry of changes at Palm Beach Research and MarketWise recently… so if you’re interested in that bit of publisher crisis, stick with me for a few minutes and I’ll share my perspective, a little back […]
We’ve published several updates of this article since Porter started his ‘secret energy grid’ pitch in early May of 2023. The following has been updated and revised, though the “secret” stock remains the same. Porter Stansberry knows at least one thing with absolute certainty: Using high-profile people and saying provocative things in your teaser ads […]
The gold bull market is really back, at least when it comes to newsletter promotions. Probably the quickest off the starting line was Porter Stansberry with his “Metropolitan Club” plan and introduction of the Stansberry Gold Investor service in late March that drove a lot of investor attention to the gold mining sector (not many […]
There’s a new teaser going around from a Stansberry newsletter, this time it’s from the 12% Letter by Tom Dyson, and it’s teasing us about a secret retirement plan they call the 801K. They’ve got a special report to send you called How to build a $1,000,000 Retirement with “U.S. 801(k) Plans” … and all […]
I continue to get lots of questions about this Jim Rickards ad from Agora, and the ad itself has been (clumsily) updated a few times since we covered it back in November of 2017 (the latest “by March 19, 2019” ad even suggests that Yellen is still President of the Federal Reserve, and the date […]
Nick Hodge is out with a new promo that’s catching the attention of Gumshoe readers — it’s all about the “sixth element” and a company with a massive stockpile of it that should make us all rich. I don’t want to spoil the whole surprise, of course — what fun would that be? — but […]
We’re rerunning this piece because it continues to be one of the most asked-for explanations on the Stock Gumshoe website. What follows below was originally published in mid-2012, it has been updated for the change in silver values but otherwise remains unchanged. Dr. David Eifrig over at Stansberry’s Retirement Millionaire newsletter has been teasing us […]

This Green Chip Stocks teaser pitch began life as a pitch for “Magic Molecule” stocks that will “change everything” and cure alcoholism, depression, PTSD and so much more… that original ad, which we covered on June 22, has now been updated a bit and is going out under the “Molecule 520” headline, but still hinting […]
This article was originally posted on August 27, when we first saw these ads circulating… apparently lots of folks missed it, and the ads are running hot and heavy again, so we’re re-posting it here to help answer a flood of new reader questions. The stock teased has popped 40-50% or so on the Stansberry […]
Alpha Contracts! That’s what’s being teased by the Agora Financial folks these days, all as part of a pitch for Zachary Scheidt’s Contract Income Alert. And they’ve been teased before, but I had a bunch of readers pile on with questions this week — probably thanks to that new “July 22” deadline — so I […]

Have a question in mind that you think is so dumb you’re embarrassed to ask it? That’s what we’re here for today! This bonus post was inspired by a reader who wanted to know “where to ask a dumb question” here on Stock Gumshoe… and while his question was not actually stupid, and I’m happy […]
”US government to replace Social Security numbers with a hackproof crypto technology we call ID Coin”.The technology is already used in Estonia, India, and soon in China, etc. Get in now before the official government announcement. Any idea what investment Brett Aiken is touting?

I’m a little late getting going today… I’d like to say that I’m jet-lagged, but really I’m just email-lagged as I try to dig through the few days of messages that I missed in my brief foray to the Emerald Isle over the past few days (which was fantastic, by the way, thanks for asking). […]
This is the intro from the ad we’re considering today: “Jim Rickards: Halfway to heaven, in a location with life-threatening temperatures, a little-known company is about to unleash… “‘God’s Gold’ “15 TIMES the concentration of the average global gold mine, this deposit contains arguably the highest-grade gold on the planet. “And one company trading for […]

Ridiculously huge gains are nothing new in biotech — they may not come easy, but they are sorely tempting… and, unlike with most “boring” companies that have ongoing businesses and have to build and compound to create lasting wealth, they can create fantastical gains almost overnight on the strength of a breakthrough clinical trial result […]
