Today’s article is a lightly updated revision of one that appeared on November 3, 2016, when an earlier “pre-election” version of the same ad was running. The hints about individual stocks are the same in the ad today, as is much of the rest of the language, though back then it was an urgent “pre-election” […]
Lots of readers wondering today about Steve Sjuggerud’s latest China teaser — it starts with a pretty “urgent” promise… “Recently, in a closed-door meeting in Boston, the most powerful authority in global investing told me… “Two Stocks That Nearly Every Wall Street Firm Will be Forced to Buy at 3:59pm on May 31 Get there […]
It always sounds impressive when someone says they’ve got a “million dollar bet” on the line, right? That’s the attention-getter from the Motley Fool that I started seeing this morning, with a promise that they’ll reveal to you their biggest single holding… as soon as you sign up for Stock Advisor ($49/year) to get the […]
Hello, dearest Irregular friends! I’ve been spending part of my day working on our new “Ask A Stupid Question” project, but don’t worry, I wouldn’t forget about my favorite Friday File readers! So what’s up this week? There are a few minor updates in the Real Money Portfolio that I’ll get to at the end, […]
Have a question in mind that you think is so dumb you’re embarrassed to ask it? That’s what we’re here for today! This bonus post was inspired by a reader who wanted to know “where to ask a dumb question” here on Stock Gumshoe… and while his question was not actually stupid, and I’m happy […]
Wyatt Research is doing another “how to buy pre-IPOs” seminar that’s actually a hard sell for his Million Dollar Portfolio ($795/year), and this one’s built on the “get in early on Flipkart” idea. Flipkart, if you’re unaware, is the leading e-commerce brand in India — sort of like the “Amazon of India,” though it’s very […]
Income and retirement focused newsletter from Nilus Mattive at Agora, started in 2018 following Mattive’s departure from his similar newsletters published by Weiss.
Gumshoe readers wanna know: What’s a “Liberty Voucher?” And you can see why — inspired by the success of the ads that tease us about “Freedom Checks” or “Trump Bonus Checks”, this one from Nilus Mattive is all about getting your attention with the idea that those who don’t have enough cash flow to retire […]
We’ll start the week out with a teaser pitch I’ve been seeing from Jason Stutman for his Technology & Opportunity newsletter. As with so many stocks that are hinted at, this one plucks at our greed-strings via comparison with a massive success story — this time it’s Netflix, as Stutman refers to his “secret” pick […]
A few updates and thoughts to share with you on this fine May Friday, starting with a more detailed look a the new healthcare-related stock that I added to my portfolio a little while ago and haven’t discussed much yet. That stock is Premier, Inc. (PINC), a truly generic name for a pretty interesting company. […]
This teaser solution was originally posted on October 5, 2016 — the ad has circulated very heavily at various times in the past 18 months, routinely driving a lot of questions our way, so I took another look in May of 2017 when the ad was last updated. The ad still carries the May, 2017 […]
Since we’re still close to being in the afterglow of the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting, when Warren and Charlie (and now Bill Gates, too) are trotted out on CNBC for hours at a time to share their avuncular wisdom, it shouldn’t be terribly surprising that we’re seeing a few “next Berkshire” pitches again. Here’s a […]
This tease caught my eye, mostly because I was genuinely curious — Ian Wyatt is promoting a “webinar” he’s going to host on May 10 that will talk up a way to play the “new bull market” in oil, and part of it, at least, is going to be about a “unconventional IPO.” So I […]
I’ve gotten several messages from Australia over the past few days about a promo that’s headlined “The Everything App”, and it does catch the eye… not least because they’re talking up a five-cent company that they think will be over a dollar by the end of the year, and that may surge as soon as […]
Small cap advisory for Australia-listed stocks, launched early in 2019.
We’ve seen a long stream of earnings reports and other worthwhile bits of data on Real Money Portfolio stocks since I last wrote to you, including some that actually included some interesting news, so prepare for a lot of quick updates…. Medical Properties Trust (MPW) reported another quarter of ho-hum… pretty much met the forecasts, […]
This article originally ran as part of the Friday File for the Irregulars on January 12. It has not been updated or revised since then, though I’ve left the original reader comments appended and have also added an extra update comment at the bottom of the article. –As Published on 1/12/18– I’ve been working on […]
The number of questions about this one is going off the charts, so I’ll look into it for you — even though it’s related to not one but two bubblicious sectors that are designed for the manipulation of investors, so I might get a little grumpy. Bear with me. Here’s a little tantalizer from the […]
Here’s what got some Gumshoe readers’ attention in the latest ad from Cabot Small Cap Confidential: “The $1.3 billion medical device company I’m about to name will soon be an $80 stock that you must snap up today for $38. “The stock jumped 146% in the last 12 months and is set to double again […]
What’s Moe Zulfiqar pitching as “The one tech stock to buy and never sell?” I’ve seen a couple versions of this teaser ad come rolling into Gumshoe HQ over the past week or so, and it’s time for a quick Thinkolator answer for you… The ad is peddling subscriptions to America’s Redemption, one of the […]
