I was just settling down for a nice teaser read from our friends at Stansberry and Associates — this time teasing the relatively new Advanced Income newsletter from Jeff Clark.

Ridiculously huge gains are nothing new in biotech — they may not come easy, but they are sorely tempting… and, unlike with most “boring” companies that have ongoing businesses and have to build and compound to create lasting wealth, they can create fantastical gains almost overnight on the strength of a breakthrough clinical trial result […]
Alpha Contracts! That’s what’s being teased by the Agora Financial folks these days, all as part of a pitch for Zachary Scheidt’s Contract Income Alert. And they’ve been teased before, but I had a bunch of readers pile on with questions this week — probably thanks to that new “July 22” deadline — so I […]

One of the hallmarks of a good marketer is that they spin everything that happens to them into something promotional — so it is with the Stansberry folks, who are surely among the better marketers out there in newsletter-land.

Yesterday I looked at Conrad’s latest teaser for his Canadian Edge newsletter, and I promised to follow up today — if you want the big picture and the broader look at trusts in general, start with yesterday’s article here, but if you’re ready to just look at a couple teasers and sniff out the companies […]
Today I’ve been getting a lot of questions from folks about the latest teaser for Mike Williams’ True Income newsletter from Stansberry & Associates. The ad is a pretty brief one, compared to others, and it focuses on something that I’ve written about before in this space — corporate debt. Yes, I’m afraid I just […]
As of May 14, Leeb is also now pitching this as a major holding of the “other Oracle of Omaha”, though the rest of the ad is mostly unchanged… that’s a reference to fund manager Wally Weitz, who I mention more below and whose funds are large holders of the stock teased. Stephen Leeb has […]

Jeff Opdyke has a pretty inflammatory ad going around these days for The Sovereign Investor, it’s all about how the consistent export of gold from the US — as reported in form FT-900 — will lead to America experiencing it’s “next 9/11” moment in April of this year. The basic argument is that the US […]

OK, I’ll cut right to the core point: The US economy is going to boom so aggressively over the next few years that whoever will be president is going to get re-elected, even if it means amending the constitution to ensure we get to keep Obama in office. So that’s the premise — the pitch […]
