“Bursting with Gold: Newfoundland’s Golden Mountain” (Dan Ferris)

By StockGumshoe ⋅ November 16, 2009 ⋅ 15 comments

This new teaser from Dan Ferris for his Extreme Value newsletter wins the prize for “most questions sent to the Gumshoe” over the weekend … so I thought I better jump right on it this morning.
If you get any of the Agora or Stansberry free emails, or subscribe to any newsletters in those [...]

“Gold-Backed Annuity” companies … income for life?

By StockGumshoe ⋅ August 27, 2009 ⋅ 26 comments

This ad has been floating to the top of my inbox for a couple days now, and since the people have spoken I thought I better write about it right quick for you — I am, after all, your humble sleuthing servant. Well, OK, maybe not so humble all the time, but do you [...]

“Distortion in the Gold Markets” Prospect Generators

By StockGumshoe ⋅ February 16, 2009 ⋅ 33 comments

This ad comes in for the Extreme Value newsletter from Stansberry & Associates, edited by Dan Ferris. The name of the newsletter is no accident, Ferris apparently looks for deep value and hidden value stocks, not unlike some other traditional “value” stock pickers.
This time, he’s telling us that there’s a “distortion” in the gold [...]

“Ten Minute Work Week: The Greatest Business in America” Ferris Extreme Value

By StockGumshoe ⋅ September 12, 2008 ⋅ 16 comments

It’ll take me longer than ten minutes, but [...]

“World’s Greatest Mutual Fund Re-opens — Could re-close any minute”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ June 18, 2008 ⋅ 21 comments

This teaser email came in a week or so ago, from another Stansberry service, Extreme Value by Dan Ferris.
Here’s how they whet our appetite:
“In 17 days… The 19,900% Mutual Fund Could Close for Good…
“MSNBC says… “Get in line early for this fund.”
“It’s been called the “Holy Grail” of mutual funds…”
Nice, huh? [...]

Dan Ferris’ “Ultimate Hedge Fund”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ January 23, 2008 ⋅ 11 comments

Apparently the sexy appeal of hedge funds has not worn off yet for individual investors, because the folks at Stansberry Research keep teasing their deep value picks by comparing them to hedge funds.
Last time around it was the “secret penny hedge fund” that turned out to be Winthrop Realty Trust.
This time around, the teaser is [...]

"Just one word of investment advice … Plastics"

By StockGumshoe ⋅ May 29, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

This one comes to us from Dan Ferris, at Stansberry and Associates. It came to me through a reader, who also suggested a solution, so I don’t have the whole email … but the only newsletter Ferris edits is Extreme Value, which runs $1,000 a year.
And yes, it’s about a plastics company … [...]
