I’m off to spend a couple weeks walking in the woods with Mrs. Gumshoe and the Little Gumshoes (though they’d probably want me to note that they aren’t so little these days), so we won’t have much in the way of new content at Stock Gumshoe for the next two weeks, and the next Friday […]
Today’s spiel for the Thinkolator is from Ian King, who is selling his Automatic Fortunes newsletter ($79/yr) with the promise that, among other things, he’ll reveal two stocks in “special reports” about to be headed your way: The $5 Stock Leading the 5G Revolution; and The Driverless Car Race Is Here: Grab Over 100% Gains […]
Eddy Elfenbein is out with a teaser pitch for his Growth Stock Advisor newsletter, and, like so many other pot-focused touts we’ve seen in years past, it’s essentially all about the fact that you need to get in today on a once-in-a-generation opportunity in the crazy-fast-growth of the legal marijuana industry. I don’t think I’ve […]
Happy Friday, friends! I don’t have any big news on the Real Money Portfolio to dig into at the moment (though the updated portfolio is here, FYI), so I’ll spend my Friday time with you sifting through another teaser pitch and getting you some answers… then we’ll get to a couple quick updates and thoughts […]
This article was originally published on January 17, 2019. The ad is still in heavy circulation, and we are still getting a lot of questions about it, so we’re re-posting our commentary here. The ad is still dated December 2018, and what follows has also not been updated or revised (the price of the primary […]
When the Trade War started heating up with China, you knew it would only be a matter of time before “rare earths” started coming into play again. These are the rare earth elements, sometimes called rare earth metals or rare earth magnets, that are way down the periodic table, often found in uranium mines, and […]
Markman’s “entry level” newsletter that tries to identify the top sliver of stocks in the market that “deserve your time” — monthly issues and buy/sell recommendations.
We’re seeing a lot of questions this week about the promo from Stansberry for Dan Ferris’ Extreme Value (currently $1,499, no refunds), so that’s our focus for today. And it looks like this is a repeat of an ad we’ve looked at a couple times over the past 18 months, but it’s got a new […]
Today’s ad for our consideration and de-teasification is from Jeff Yastine for his Total Wealth Insider newsletter over at Banyan Hill — that’s one of their “entry level” newsletters ($79/year), and this time he’s promising that he’s got a $5 stock from New Jersey that’s going to knock our socks off. OK, fine, he didn’t […]
This is the ad that readers have really been asking me to look at over the past few days: “JUST OPENED: A weird window of opportunity that is so rare and unprecedented it could turn every $10,000 you invest into $230,000 “Bizarre Crypto Opportunity Gives You the Chance to Own Bitcoin and Other Cryptocurrencies For […]
Indulge me for a moment, dear reader — I’m going to wander around thinking about valuation and about short selling, then get into talking about a current situation that closely mirrors some of the long/short pairs trades I’ve done in the past year or so. Then we’ll talk some about gold, since that seems to […]
This is a teaser pitch that we solved about six weeks ago, but I think the solution got lost inside a longer article because folks continue to ask about it… so I’ve pulled it out to talk about for you here today in your bonus Friday article, partly because it also plays off of the […]
It looks like we’ve got another marketing wave from Bonner & Partners coming, this time in service of Jeff Brown’s Near Future Report ($199/yr), and we’re teased about the massive riches available from the advancements in artificial intelligence. And the promises are, of course, huge… here’s a bit of the spiel: “Remember when Apple made […]
The headline of the latest ad for Bull and Bust Report was pretty much all we needed to predict that a bunch of readers would ask about this ad: “How America’s 5G Revolution Just Opened a $12 Trillion Reservoir of Cash For Investors Everywhere “Right now, THREE unknown companies have a stranglehold on the entire […]
This article was originally published on March 26, the ad in question continues to circulate unchanged but we have lightly updated our coverage below to reflect some changes in the company… including the 40% drop in the share price since the ad started running. Matthew Carr at the Oxford Club is pitching a new marijuana […]
Today we take a gander at a pitch from Mark Skousen, who has been a newsletter guy for decades with his Forecasts & Strategies newsletter (he’s also an itinerant economics professor, and runs the big “freedomfest” conference in Las Vegas each year, among other things). And the headline of his latest “presentation” pretty well sums […]
There’s no more cyclical stock than a semiconductor stock, and we’re seeing the whipsaw slash through that market now as trade sentiment weakens and pundits begin to see some weakness in the economy, particularly in the employment numbers, and the Federal Reserve fuels that uncertainty by essentially promising a rate cut in their attempt to […]
I don’t usually make a point of meeting or interviewing executives, mostly because I don’t want to be swayed by personal impressions of people who probably wouldn’t be in their position unless they were personable and appealing… but when you’re really dealing with a “bet the jockey” stock like Boston Omaha (BOMN), it is important […]
*** This article was originally published as part of the Friday File on March 8, 2019. It has been (very) lightly updated and unlocked for everyone to read *** Today’s teaser that we’ll feed to the Thinkolator is from Michael Robinson for his Nova-X Report ($79/year), and it sounds kind of familiar…. These Mysterious ‘M-Boxes’ […]
I’ll let you know up front that this is not a particularly “secret” stock reveal today — yes, Frank Curzio is hinting at a stock to promote his entry-level newsletter (Curzio Research Opportunities, currently $49), but you could find this stock on your own. Anyone could, that’s the nature of a unique product. But I’ve […]
