Agora publishing and its newsletter divisions: approach with caution
by xiexgp | June 9, 2014 1:35 pm
With only 47 employees and a boatload of newsletters plus the newly added FDA[1] Trader, seems they’re spread pretty thin. Personally, I’d take anything and everything associated with them with a tiny grain of salt.

I’d take anything they have to recommend with a large grain of salt. I haven’t been looking at stocks for that long. I took my pension from Northrup in one lump sum. Since I also have some inheritance that has been disappering I thought I’d look at stocks. Agora caught my attention and I subscribed to their bottom newsletter. One of their recommendations was APDN, Applied DNA. They mark items with DNA so as tob prevent counterfeiting, and it is sole sourced by the miitary (DOD). Agora made a big deal of the sole sourcing, every counterfeiting bust, and every robbery where the bills had been marked with DNA. After more than two years the stock has gone no where. It is in a niche market and not likely to be more than that. I also let dollar signs cloud my vision and bit on another recommendation HRTPY. I forget their name, HRTPY was drilling for oil off the coast of Africa. They were set to drill four wells, and Agora promise big returns IF they struck oil, and did their best to push HRTPY for all it was possibly worth. The one thing they didn’t mention and I could not find was data on seismic surveys. Naive as I was figgered they must have it for as often as they mentioned it. Four wells later only one had a trace and was not commercial. The one thing you can count on from them is the latiest and greatest way to find out perfoming stocks, and it is all Bull Sh*t.
