Dan Ferris seems to have a real knack for picking great stocks… eventually. And by that I mean that his recommendations seldom miss, but since this is in fact a Value publication, it often takes a whole lot of time for him to be right. People who are looking to flip stocks for quick profits should look elsewhere. People who enjoy building a portfolio of solid winners with a respectable return, who might find themselves enjoying quicker returns in a more value-hospitable environment (which we haven’t had in a looooong while!!!), should enjoy Extreme Value. And anyone who can appreciate a knowledgeable author with a good journalistic flourish will enjoy reading the newsletter, irrespective of investment philosophy.

often right eventually… was right about sprott a few years ago ad it ran up 30 % or more… likewise Altius… it ran.. then sold off like sprott. some other picks were more solid and upward trending value plays. maybe resources isnt his best suit… he is sligtly megalo about his skills…but does do in depth research and does not produce a buy a monthl….

I’ve been buying research for attempting to make stock market profits for at least 30 years. So many of the email teasers are just BS. The Stansberry bunch, including Ferris, are about the smartest I’ve found. Their main problem is that they often slip right-wing political views into their research letters. Having excellent financial information does not make them geniuses in the world of politics, but they don’t know that.

Patience is the key .. . as it should be . Slow and steady wins the race, and he exemplifies this. He was ‘forced’ to come up with more picks which in the past he was reticent to do …however some of these new picks are up near 100% in a few months not years!

Travis: I posted a few comments before on Gunshoe.com about Stansberry&Associates (S&A) and the editor of Extreme Value , Dan Ferris. You probably know Ferris is working with the analyst Mike Barrett. Frustrated with the continued lagging performance of “value” stocks for the past decade the team of Ferris and Barrett have broadened their stock selection to include smaller capitalization stocks of lesser known companies with undervalued growth prospects using a price implicit value model. Their monthly stock recommendations now target “diamonds in the rough” when the price seems to offer a margin of safety when the present price model indicates undervalued growth potential and a bargain if all goes well. Over the past year they recommended an infrastructure road construction and a Canadian Transportation corporation both intent on rolling up smaller operations in an acquisition growth model. Both recommendations have done well. So the new Extreme Value model seems to be working for its subscribers, which include me. He doesn’t refer to World Dominators any more or “cash gushing” Free Cash Flow. Ferris also does a weekly podcast The Stansberry Investor Hour the format of which starts with an educational 30 min “rant” about some “toxic waste” the investment world has concocted followed by a long form interview with asset managers who have published an investment book which Dan has read and which they discuss in some detail. I do own shares of Sprott purchased in Jan of 2020 at around $2.30/share pre reverse split 10:1. What was very prophetic was Ferris insight that the application and qualification for the NYSE listing post reverse merger would attract new investors and perhaps some big institutional investors. The price rose and then fell with the Covid 19 deflationary fall in prices. Sprott has come back with the increased awareness to the possibility of future inflation and the fall in LT Treasure prices and increased yields. Travis I just wanted to let you know hw much Inappreciate your workabd the web site.

Every so often Dan Ferris comes up with a stock which he says he would put all of his money in, the only stock one has to own. A few years ago it was Altius Minerals, which has not fulfilled its promise by a long shot. I don’t think he ever recommended selling it to get into his new pick, the only stock you need to own. Turns out to be SII. which had to have a reverse split to get it up to a decent price. He says it yields 3%. My brokers web site shows no dividend. With Ferris the long term is very long indeed.

I’ve enjoyed and favored Dan’s writings for about 16 years, including his “Real Estate Shareholder” newsletter … I finally subscribed to Extreme Value, and got the $1500/2 year offer, which I supersized to “lifetime” for another $499… (fyi, “lifetime” charges a $199/year fee). I’m looking forward to at least 3 years of Ferris’ insights and ideas to help pepper my portfolio…

I still like Ferris’ Extreme Value, and have felt profitable. He gives me a cogent “fundamentals” approach, which I knife-catch to build position size. The other day, for lifetimers, he added a commodities stocks approach, using 7 instruments, for a several year outlook. I like him. I separately use a technical trader guru (also at Stansberry), and a collection of “trend following “(managed futures) mutual funds and ETFs (for currencies, commodities and interest rates, with some equity) along with my own-crafted long-equities, fractional, breakout, trend following portfolio via Robinhood, currently of 410 curated-by-me stocks, (of about 5k), cutting losses short (using an ATR metric), and letting profits run. Dan’s commentary on a weekly Stansberry free-publication, and on the Investor Hour podcast also keep me piqued (and a peek) at his thinkings)Thank you for asking!

Stocks are performing very poorly, and his. 10 essential stock portfolio is down quite a bit (20%) year to date. I have emailed Stansberry several times to ask about my options and no response. I can’t recommend.

Horrible picks. I used a credit from another horrible service to get into this one. His “top 10 stocks” are down about 15% from last year, and have never improved. TUP is the worst, but 7 of the 10 are negative, and have never been positive. I understand that this is (in theory) a long term service, but there appears to be little thought to the picks and even less to managing them.
