By StockGumshoe ⋅ September 10, 2009 ⋅ 6 comments

“In the short time it took gas prices to shoot from $1.50 to $4 a gallon, this little-known stock made investors 951% richer.
“Now Goldman Sachs says oil is going to rocket right back to $147 — and you can bet $4 gas won’t be far behind.
“This may be your last chance to get the full [...]

“America’s Hidden Resource: Poised to hand you generous profits”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ July 20, 2009 ⋅ 3 comments

This teaser ad comes in for a newsletter I’ve written about many, many times over the past couple years, the Motley Fool Stock Advisor.
And this is a good ‘ol patriotic “stand up and cheer” ad — all about how the Chinese can’t beat us when we’ve got some of the most critical technology [...]

“The Motley Fool’s Next 10-Bagger”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ June 4, 2009 ⋅ 23 comments

Few terms get as much of a rise out of investors as “10 bagger”, the term popularized by Peter Lynch that refers to a stock that increases 10 times in value — and perhaps for good reason, since these kinds of hyper growth stories, even if they take a decade or more to unfold, are [...]

“ONE AMERICAN BRAND POISED TO POWER INTO THE GLOBAL MAINSTREAM!
“Every decade or so, a brand is born in America that goes up like a moon shot and becomes a recognizable symbol all over the world… Brands like Levis… Coca-Cola… Harley-Davidson… Heinz… McDonalds… GE… Budweiser… Disney… Gillette… Pepsi… The Gap… IBM… Wal-Mart… Apple… Nike… Microsoft… Intel… [...]

“The No. 1 Cloud Computing Play for New Money” Motley Fool

By StockGumshoe ⋅ April 10, 2009 ⋅ 8 comments

This ad from the Motley Fool has been around for a while, and they’re now giving away some of the teaser stock names for free — but they’re still keeping one “secret,” so I thought I’d revisit that part of the pitch and let you know who it is.
For those who don’t know what “Cloud [...]

The One Stock to Buy for the Next Ten Years

By StockGumshoe ⋅ December 9, 2008 ⋅ 38 comments

The Motley Fool is sending out an ad that claims to have chosen “The Only Stock to Own 2009-2019.”
Now there’s a promise, no? The assumption of almost all pundits and pontificators, myself included, is that this awful market might represent a remarkable buying opportunity — at least, an opportunity for those who make the [...]

“Recession-Proof Business Poised for 100% Gains” Motley Fool

By StockGumshoe ⋅ November 19, 2008 ⋅ 7 comments

The good folks at Motley Fool’s Stock Advisor newsletter have another teaser for us … they think they’ve got a “virtually recession-proof” stock for you to buy … in their words:
“On Sale Now… a Virtually Recession-Proof Business Poised for 100% Gains…
“An investment story like this doesn’t come along very often…
“It’s a business that is sailing [...]

“3 Kings of Cloud Computing” Motley Fool

By StockGumshoe ⋅ August 17, 2008 ⋅ 6 comments

This one has drummed up a fair amount of interest from the mighty horde of Gumshoe readers, I’ve been seeing it for a couple weeks now and it appears to still be actively pushed as I type.
So … you might like to know the names of these three cloud computing giants, no? [...]

Still Super? Fool’s “American Super Brand” Endures

By StockGumshoe ⋅ March 10, 2008 ⋅ 8 comments

Newsletters are notorious for re-using the same ad copy for years and years and years, and the Motley Fool is no different — when they get a marketing pitch that really works, they keep trotting it out again, and again, and again. I’ve mentioned this before, particularly with their “Next Berkshire Hathaway” pick that [...]

Motley Fool: “10X Bigger than the Internet: 4 Alternative Energy Plays”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ March 2, 2008 ⋅ 12 comments

This one has caused quite a stir among the vast and mighty Gumshoe readership, if my steady deluge of email is any indication. Everybody loves growth stocks, especially when nothing else seems to be growing, and everyone thinks alternative energy will be the next billionaire-maker — the Fool compares the current situation in alternative [...]
