“The Smart Grid: Bigger than Bill Gates”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ October 28, 2009 ⋅ 15 comments

Those of you who’ve been around the block with the Gumshoe a few times know that I’m always a little bit skeptical of most of the newsletter promotions I read, but I tend to give a wee bit of extra scrutiny to the stuff from Untapped Wealth — partly because they are responsible for the [...]

Can You Trust a Teaser?

By StockGumshoe ⋅ January 27, 2009 ⋅ 12 comments

Most of us are quite familiar with investment newsletters and trading services. I focus on the newsletters that advertise heavily to retail investors, and the most successful type of ad is apparently the “teaser” letter, a well-argued case for a particular stock or investment … that withholds the actual name and ticker until you [...]

“At $4, this is a dream stock at a bargain price …”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ December 15, 2008 ⋅ 17 comments

Tim Fields is telling us that the next big wave will be personalized medicine, and using genetic testing to customize treatments. We’ve heard that before from several newsletter editors, and it has been an investment theme for years. Will this little stock really revolutionize medicine and lead to untold riches for investors? First, I’ve got to figure out who it is for you.

Forever … and ever … and ever … the Forever Battery

By StockGumshoe ⋅ August 28, 2008 ⋅ 16 comments

The Forever Battery newsletter teaser is back, still going strong … not unlike our friendly little Energizer Bunny, I suppose. I’ve seen quite a few emails on this one recently, and the ad is almost identical to the one I first saw back in early April.
It’s an ad for Untapped Wealth, and [...]

Untapped Wealth Pushes the Envelope … in a bad way

By StockGumshoe ⋅ May 16, 2008 ⋅ 24 comments

I’ve looked at plenty of teaser email ads from Untapped Wealth over the last year or so — if you’re not familiar with these folks, this is a newsletter run by Tim Fields and Eric Dickson, and it’s described as the “flagship” publication of Trinity Research, one of a half-dozen or so relatively large financial [...]

“The Forever NanoBattery: Makes old batteries obsolete and investors wealthy”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ April 2, 2008 ⋅ 43 comments

This one has come up in questions from readers quite a few times over the past few weeks that it’s been circulating, and the shares have already moved up a little bit with the company trying to get some press coverage tomorrow as they demonstrate their technology. So now seemed like a good time [...]

“Turn $10,000 into $25,000 with Company X”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ February 27, 2008 ⋅ 4 comments

Ah, “Company X” — that’s an old teaser chestnut. I think I prefer when folks like the Stansberry copywriters come up with wholly invented terms for investments, but I must admit that the old “Company X” term still has some mystery and appeal.
This ad turns out to be for a firm

“Geothermal Energy: A situation you can’t ignore!”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ February 4, 2008 ⋅ 16 comments

Tim Fields and Eric Dickson over at Trinity Research have been selling subscriptions on the back of geothermal investing for a little while, and they’ve got a new brief “teaser” out about their pick for this sector.
Geothermal energy is nothing new to the Gumshoe Faithful, of course, and those of us who’ve been paying any [...]

"An Army of Bees Hunting Bin Laden"

By StockGumshoe ⋅ November 12, 2007 ⋅ 4 comments

That’s the intriguing subject line of a forwarded email a reader sent in, advertising the Untapped Wealth Newsletter that can come your way for $99 a year. It’s a nanotechnology and defense teaser, which is where that idea comes from — they’re building, or at least envisioning, little drones that are the size of [...]

"The Golden Egg: WiMax ushers in a new gilded age"

By StockGumshoe ⋅ April 23, 2007 ⋅ 2 comments

“Its impact will be greater than the railroad… automobile… personal computer… and the cell phone… turning select investors into millionaires… Ushering in a New Gilded [...]
