30 Times Better than Gold?

By StockGumshoe ⋅ April 23, 2009 ⋅ 12 comments

Eric Roseman is at it again, it appears — a few months ago I wrote about an ad of his that was based on some very sketchy assumptions, an ad that promised you could buy gold for a $600/ounce discount. There was a little truth to it, of course, but not $600 worth … [...]

“Alaska’s Secret Gold Mine: Biggest Gold Discovery of last 20 years”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ March 18, 2009 ⋅ 62 comments

So … if you’re breathing, and you can read, and you’ve ever subscribed to any investment service or resource of any kind, you’ve probably seen this ad. My readers have wildly varying opinions of Stansberry & Associates and their newsletters, but one thing is certain: They know how to get the word out.
And the [...]

“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 [...]

Can you really buy gold at a $600/ounce discount?

By StockGumshoe ⋅ February 12, 2009 ⋅ 34 comments

Eric Roseman of the Sovereign Society has been blanketing the web with a teaser about a “different way to own gold” — one that he says might give you a discount of as much as $600 an ounce. Here’s what he says … “Recently, I’ve been researching different ways to own gold – and two months ago — I came across a little-known form of the yellow metal. The shocking thing is, it has outperformed “normal” gold investments by a factor of 10… or more!”

“This $4 Gold Stock … Will at Least Triple” John Doody

By StockGumshoe ⋅ February 2, 2009 ⋅ 19 comments

The folks at Stansberry & Associates have apparently made a deal with John Doody, who has for many years written a well-respected stock advisory service on gold miners. He thinks that gold miners should have a great year in 2009 … but the tease, of course, is that there’s a $4 gold stock that is at the top of his list right now. So what is it?

“Tiny co. strikes gold in abandoned mine” Chuck de Castro

By StockGumshoe ⋅ January 30, 2009 ⋅ 18 comments

Is it even possible to slip back in time a year or two, to our delightful bull market past, and remember how differently we looked at things?
At this time of year in 2007 we would have been sifting through teasers about how the latest LCD maker or electronics store was going to benefit [...]

Gold, Golder, Goldest?

By StockGumshoe ⋅ January 9, 2009 ⋅ 28 comments

Here’s what I can’t tell you: Where the price of gold is going. Here’s what I can tell you: Over the past several weeks, as investor enthusiasm for gold clearly reached the melting point in a big price spike to near $900, I’ve seen almost every gold teaser in the book. Gold is down a bit again today, but the gold bugs are still out in force and certain that they will be vindicated when inflation and dollar devaluation finally rear their ugly heads. What do the experts say now?

“The Next Franco-Nevada: Chaffee Revisited”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ December 2, 2008 ⋅ 6 comments

If anyone was in danger of forgetting the “Chaffee Royalties” teaser ad for Chris Mayer’s Special Situations newsletter, the marketers have saved you from that precarious perch — I’ve seen this ad more in the past week than in the last several months combined, so it must be taking hold once more.
Why? Well, the [...]

“Make $2 Every Time Gold Goes up a Buck ” McCoach

By StockGumshoe ⋅ November 4, 2008 ⋅ 16 comments

We haven’t heard much from Greg McCoach in the last few months — not a big surprise, perhaps, since the middle of this year saw the decline of pretty much every single mining stock and hard commodity, and those are the things he covers in his Mining Speculator newsletter.
But now, he’s got a little wedge [...]

“The Greatest Economic Conspiracy in History”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ October 30, 2008 ⋅ 30 comments

“After 98 years of secrecy, the greatest economic conspiracy in history is finally unfolding.”
“Learn how you could turn $5,000 into $100,000 (or more) by 2009 with this safe and simple
profit/protection plan…”
That’s how this latest ad opens, with the threat that the 98-year-old “Jeckyl Island Project” economic conspiracy will ruin your retirement — though to be [...]
