It isn’t necessarily easy to make money from broad demographic shifts, since they take time and are difficult to predict in a detailed way — but the move of the baby boom generation through the various stages of their life to now has had a momentous impact on almost every part of American life, from […]

Write a review Read More“How a Secret Global Wire Transfer Could Show You a Potential Tenfold Gain!”
I’ve written about a number of teasers from Michael Robinson during the couple years he’s been heading up the American Wealth Underground newsletter for Taipan (if that name doesn’t ring a bell, you might remember that this letter used to be the hypetastic BreakAway Investor under Andrew Mickey and others). Robinson is telling us that […]
10 Comments Read More“The $1.6 Trillion ‘Back Mountain’ Covenant”
Today’s ad comes rolling in from Zachary Scheidt for his New Growth Investor newsletter from Taipan, trumpeting the huge profits to come from the secretive “Back Mountain Covenant” that will allow Europe to break the Russian chokehold on natural gas. The teaser ad is a long one, of course — “short and sweet” rarely plays […]
13 Comments Read More“Newly Issued ‘Platinum Notes’ Set to Soar 1,173% — or More — by January 27th”
How’s that for a promise, eh? 1,173% — not just a great return, but a remarkably specific prediction. Will it come true? Well, let’s see if we can figure out what they’re talking about — the ad is for a special report that Sara Nunnally is pitching, published by the folks at Taipan, called “Gain […]
15 Comments Read More“The $50 Billion Shadow Syndicate”
“Crash the Euro” and Profit with a 5-Letter Code
This ad is from Justice Litle, who edits the Macro Trader newsletter. I’m more of a micro-trader myself, but I’ve had a lot of questions on this one, and I keep seeing it cycle through my mailbox with that October 7 deadline, so I thought I’d take a look. Here’s the promise in a quote […]
22 Comments Read MoreIdentifying the “Gulf Coast Vaults,” part II
Well, if you’re a loyal Stock Gumshoe reader (and really, who wouldn’t be?), you may have noticed that I looked into an ad from Taipan’s Safe Haven Investor that teased us about the untold riches just waiting for us in the “Gulf Coast Vaults” … but I only got to the first “Vault Target” company […]

There are two great things about being a marketing copywriter — first, if you put it in quotes, you can say almost anything … and second, there are already a thousand successful ideas out there, you don’t need to come up with a new one each time you’re looking for an angle. This time we’re […]

“Dodge the Government’s Secret 65% Retirement Tax” Taipan
"... this is a completely hidden – and yet legal – drain on your retirement savings, mandated by the U.S. Government. And the worst part is that for the last five years, without fail, this “tax” has increased. In fact, at the current rate, over the next five years, you could be in line to shell out as much as 65% of your total retirement portfolio!" So what is Taipan talking about with this one?
22 Comments Read More“The Greatest Economic Conspiracy in History”
“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 — […]
30 Comments Read More“Own the Sleeping Giant of India” Material Profit
This one’s from Christian DeHaemer for Material Profit, one of the “introductory” inexpensive newsletters from Taipan (on sale for $49 at the moment, apparently). This group is no stranger to your friendly neighborhood Gumshoe, but I don’t think I’ve looked at one from Material Profit before (I’ve looked at many from DeHaemer’s other services, most […]
8 Comments Read MoreSeven Year Blockade Lifted from “Gunboat Basin”
Once again, Streetsifter has scooped the Gumshoe and written up another one for you, this one on a way to “profit from Exxon’s misfortune” and “turn $4 into $45” — just when the Gumshoe runs short on time, our friend Streetsifter seems to pull a great nicely-summarized sleuth job out of his hat for all […]
7 Comments Read More“Tiny $5 MicroCap Dazzles Cell Phone Titans”
This one comes to us from Christian DeHaemer at Taipan, whose “reliable source” tells him that this stock could go from $5 to $15 in a matter of months … sounds like something we ought to take a look at, eh? This is an ad for his Volume Spike Alert, by the way — one […]
9 Comments Read More“China Backdoor IPO Strategy: Coal”
So, will the Gumshoe be wrong again? I was very skeptical of J. Christoph Amberger’s plan to buy in to stocks before they IPO in China, as a way of riding the wave of the Chinese stock market’s incredible growth. And the one time I saw a specific teaser that advocated this, I didn’t see […]
2 Comments Read More“The First No-Fuel Power Plant”
This one is from Chris DeHaemer at Taipan’s Red Zone profits, and it looks like it circulated pretty heavily on Friday and over the weekend. It’s for a company that uses momentum, in Dehaemer’s description, to store electrical energy, and essentially runs a big “momentum battery” that they use to buy up electricity at low […]
20 Comments Read More“Surefire Agflation Play”
I was just starting to look for this one, the latest teaser from Ann Sosnowski over at Taipan (it came in as today’s “Chart of the Day” teaser, but newshidden over at the forum beat me to it. It’s all about some kind of agricultural commodity trader/producer in China that benefits from inflating prices internationally […]
2 Comments Read More“Secret Defense Department Technology Crosses Over”
This one has already been solved several times over at the forum, but I thought I’d write it up here for those of you who don’t like to keep up with all those discussions. The latest teaser for this company comes in from Andrew Mickey at Breakaway Investor — though it appears that various other […]
8 Comments Read MoreMEGA-U308: Bonus Pick from the Forum
Many of you have been interested in the MEGA-U308 teaser that’s been circulating from GRESSOR and Taipan recently. I’ve had several readers send in the suggested solution to this one, but I wasn’t ever able to confirm with as much certainty as I would like … thanks to the forum, though, readers like you can […]
7 Comments Read More“Buy this Chinese electronics giant now, before its Shanghai IPO!”
This is another relatively quick post for you, since the email wasn’t exactly clue-laden. This comes in from J. Christof Amberger, of the Taipan newsletters, and it’s a tease for the secret backdoor into Chinese IPO’s.And more specifically, it’s a tease for a special report about one company that is poised to go public on […]
8 Comments Read More“Oil Investment in Somalia?”
August 11 update: Just a note that this stock, along with Chris DeHaemer’s other resource play Rusina Mining, has taken a significant hit of late. The hit this company is taking is probably almost entirely related to the current debate in the Somali government about setting up a new government oil company and new centralized […]
14 Comments Read More“The Project” — Philippines nickel mine and a desperate superpower
August 11 Update: just a note, for those of you who watch the nickel markets at all or read Barron’s and saw this weekend’s note that nickel has fallen from grace significantly (article was entitled “Nickel’s 15 Minutes are up“) … that has clearly been part of the downtrend in this company’s shares after it […]
11 Comments Read More“Classified Uranium Enrichment Secret”
This one has come in from a few different readers recently, and most of the emails I’ve seen have had the subject “Classified Uranium Secret Could Launch $5 Stock to $57” This is for a uranium enrichment company, and it comes from Andrew Mickey at Breakaway Investor, yet another Taipan publication. Here’s the sell: This […]
8 Comments Read More“Red-hot IPO — Mini Drones and Cramer Mania”
This one came through a few days ago, and it’s actually an interesting little company so I thought I’d sleuth it out for you. The sell here is for a special report subscription from Amberger at Taipan, one of the newsletter publishers I hear from a lot. They want you to buy a special report […]
