[ed. note: This is an introductory piece from longtime reader Peter Tilton, who has proposed writing a regular column for Stock Gumshoe readers about psychiatry. Not an investing topic (though the behavior of many of us in the markets may well be something that’s in need of a diagnosis), but we thought you might find […]
Streetsifter strikes again — he sent in this solution for an email that just started circulating, and he sent it in before I had even gotten around to reading the email. He even wrote it up nicely, so most of what follows is just a minor edit of his words (I agree he’s clearly got […]
The idea that we’re finally going to enter an era of just and profitable growth in Africa (or at least, sustainable growth) has been around for a long time, and it’s been wrong for a long time, as Africa has arguably been subject to more exploitation, poverty, and human suffering than your average continent over […]
How could I resist this tease? I’m the guy, after all, who needs to stir his little grey cells to recall the name of that beautiful shrub growing at the northeast corner of our house. Eureka, I’ve got it! – it’s called viburnum. I’ve always attributed my lapses in memory to the […]

Welcome back, volatility! I’ve got the remainder of my Annual Review to share with you in a separate post that will be released later on, but thought I’d get my big picture thinking out of the way for you first… including a brief update about the few portfolio moves that I made today as we […]
I believe that Harry Dent is bang-on with his Wave Pattern and demographic investment strategies although I doubt his forecasting abilities (particularly in relation to precious metals) purely because the world is in totally uncharted territory financially. After reading a few of his books I subscribed to Dent Research Boom & Bust simply for the […]
Just recently I’ve taken a long position in Immupharma and am quite excited about the potential. One of the fellow members on a BB had posted a very well researched and balanced article that I would like to share.

I’ve been asked a few questions about the gold stocks in my portfolio, so I thought I’d run through a few of them today and provide whatever updated opinion and assessment I can for you — including a few portfolio adjustments I’ve just made. And, as an added bonus, I’m adding one new gold stock […]

Doc Gumshoe is not in the habit of contradicting the conclusions, backed by research, that are stated in papers published by the Journal of the American Medical Association, commonly referred to as JAMA. JAMA is, after all, one of a handful of the most prestigious medical journals on the planet, along with the New […]
After Gumshoe made some coments about the yearly result spreadsheets, I took a look. STTYF shows a reviewed at 0.48, and a current value around $1.60 or so, thus showing a profit. I cannot find it mentioned prior to 2012, and it was never that low in 2012. Am I blind, or are the spreadsheets?

In his tearjerker “Sisters of Mercy,” Leonard Cohen sings, I’ve been where you’re hanging and think I can see how you’re pinned.

I have to warn you up front, after reading through this before sending it out to you I’m a little worried. You might think I’m a bit “off my meds” today — I didn’t have one coherent idea to share, so I ended up with a stream of consciousness that’s a jumble of ideas, ranting, […]

Famous families and historical fortunes fascinate investors — the idea that these families you know and (sometimes) worship created vast fortune because of one wily speculator way back in the family tree is almost irresistibly interesting. It gives us the feeling that any family can rise up and make a big bet on the way […]

The following article originally appeared on February 11, 2014 — several readers have asked about the “blue blood” pitch for this “cancer cure” (there’s a reason why we use quotes there) so we’re putting it on top of the page in case you’re curious. My opinion on this one is unchanged, I’m still pretty skeptical […]
What’s the commonest reason for admission to hospital of people 65 and over? Mull that question, as it provides context. Think of people you know. At least one probably has this condition.
