Time once again, dear children, for a tale from the Middle Kingdom. Once upon a time, there was a nation so vast and populous that investors got dollar signs in their eyes just gazing upon the smoggy mega-cities that grew like weeds in that distant land. And lo, it was told that it was just […]

The Motley Fool Global Gains folks recently went to Australia on a stock-finding trip, and they came back with a few recommendations for their subscribers that editor Tim Hanson is also teasing for the rest of us — with an eye, naturally, to adding to those subscriber rolls. And certainly, Australia has been one of […]

Today we again visit our friends from the Motley Fool, and they transport us to the Middle Kingdom with a teaser chock full of Chinese stock ideas. The teaser comes in an ad for the Fool’s Global Gains newsletter from Tim Hanson, and it’s all about the Chinese consumer. They’ll send you a special report […]

This tease comes in an ad for the Motley Fool’s Global Gains newsletter, which has brought some interesting ideas to our attention during its relatively short life so far (though I imagine it probably had a terrible year last year — this is one of the few Motley Fool newsletters that Hulbert doesn’t track, and […]

This is part of an ad that we’ve looked at before in slightly different form — the other “Billion Dollar SSE” we looked at was General Steel Holdings back in July. What the folks at the Motley Fool’s Global Gains newsletter mean when they call something a “SSE” is a “state sponsored entrepreneur” or “state […]

This one comes in from Bill Mann at the Motley Fool’s Global Gains service, which I’ve looked at several times before — and I’ve also liked a lot of their picks and have invested in a few of the same companies personally, so I usually pay extra attention to their ads. Which doesn’t make them […]

This is a relatively new service (last couple years) that’s trying to capitalize on Americans’ obsession with overseas investments, they focus on companies that are easily tradeable in the U.S., either as listed ADRs or with heavy pink […]

This teaser email comes in from Bill Mann at Motley Fool Global Gains … and as with all such reports from the Fool, this one is a bit like reading Tolstoy, by the time you get to the end you can’t quite remember why you started. But even though his missives are long-winded, Mann has […]

So if you’re reading this one first, you missed out on the explanation … if you want the full story (and another lovely Gumshoe read) start with my other writeup that feeds from this same email ad, for Bill Mann’s Global Gains service over at the Motley Fool. This is the second teased stock from […]

This is the second stock that was profiled in a teaser ad for Bill Mann’s Motley Fool Global Gains newsletter — the second of three that were profiled as Three Small Caps that will Dominate the International Market. The first, as you may remember, was an alternative energy play from South Africa named Sasol. Hidden […]

The Motley Fool has an investment newsletter called Global Gains, by Bill Mann, that offers up international investment advice for $199 a year, and they recently have been advertising the service by teasing up three different small cap companies, what they call their “Hidden Advantage Stocks.” (And actually, I seem to remember them advertising this […]
