Weiss Research: Martin Weiss is not a shady individual. I have utilized some of their services since early 2000,s. If I had listened to Mr. Weiss in 2007 and early 2008 I would have known to exit most securities and went to cash. I did not and lost approx $370,000. If you subscribe to one of Weiss’s services and choose to opt out they will refund your $$ per their announcements. That is ipso facto. I have done so.
If they are so good, why did you opt out?
Since about April of last year I am still in Eight (8) of their reports (Safe Money, Asian Stock elert, World currency alert,etc) you assidiuous a**.
WOW, what a load!
If you call someone assiduous, it’s a compliment. It means they’re careful, methodical and very persistent. Good detectives are classically assiduous types.
Assiduous comes from two Latin words: assiduus, meaning “busy incessant, continual or constant,” and assidere, meaning “to sit down to” something. (Funnily enough, we also get the word sedentary, meaning someone who doesn’t move around much, a lazy couch potato, from this same last word.) Although we tend to think of sedentary types as being the very opposite of assiduous ones, many assiduous activities (like writing, thinking, or detective work) are best done sitting in a chair.

Glad to know you can use a dictionary and search wiki…
I can also attest that when they say money back guaranteed, they process refund immediately. I too subscribe to Safe Money. They have a great macro record, but with any stock picking letter ymmv.
Actually, I think it was a valid question.
Thank you!
i found the weisse news letters outstanding even though im an aussie and trade asx markets only. i found their writings too be honest and forthright too the point..very good recommends and journalism…dont be shy too invest in them.,you may thank yourself later…
Thank you for a straight answer. Do they have a newsletter for penny and inexpensive stocks?
I once subscribed to them and found:
1) their Safe Money Report was their main newsletter – Weiss seemed sincere in attempting to preserve your capital versus grow it big.
2) while good for a crashing market, if you believe the market is rising, Weiss may seem to be a perma-bear;
3) Their options newsletters (at the time I subscribed) were overpriced and inaccurate. As boring as Safe Money Report is, Do NOT subscribe to the “more exciting” options newsletters unless you have a lot of money to burn.
Though a newbie, I did better on options than they did. Also, with Weiss, or ANY options newsletter, even if they refund your money upon your request to cancel, you might not find it practical to unsubscribe until you exit your positions first (and this could take weeks or even a month.
