  • Miscellaneous Thoughts and Updates for the Friday File

    I’m going to keep it brief for you today — and we’re not going to have a formal “Idea of the Month” piece for October because, well, we’re at the end of October and I haven’t recently come across a new idea that’s compelling enough for me to argue you should own it. In some […]

  • Personal Buys and a Few Updates

    None of the teasers this week struck me as so thrilling that I have to cover them for the Irregulars today, but I’ve been following a few of my favorite stocks and their quarterly updates recently, and bought a few stocks today, so I’ll share some company updates for the Friday File this time around. […]

  • Catching up on my Brazilian Investments

    I’ve invested in and written about quite a few Brazilian companies over the years, and I own a handful of such stocks today — so with the Brazilian market taking a hit this year, I thought I’d take a quick look at those holdings. There are two Brazilian companies that I’ve profiled as “Idea of […]

  • “Secret ‘Leapfrog Phenomenon’ Generates Stunning 23,750% Return!”

    I’ve been so overwhelmed with gold and silver teases, and have written about them so many times over the last couple weeks, that I was really prepared to jump on anything that looked a bit more like a “real” company (ie, not just a commodity play or a hyped-up junior miner) … so here comes […]

  • August Idea of the Month: A Cashless Brazil

    This month I want to suggest that you take a look at the biggest credit card processing company in Brazil, Cielo — this was a huge Brazilian IPO last year, then under the name VisaNet, and was formerly the sole processor of Visa cards in the country (as competitor Redecard was the franchise holder for […]

  • “Buy This Commodity Currency Before the Dollar Drops Any Further”

    That’s the pitch made by Stephen Leeb (sorry, Dr. Stephen Leeb) for his ETF World Alert newsletter. We have all seen the dollar give up it’s panic-led gains in recent months, as the fear of future inflation and the unsustainable nature of the federal budget make investors wary that the only way to handle America’s […]

  • South of the Border, Down Brasilia Way

    Brazil’s economy is finally growing now, a growth that it started getting credit for a few years ago, before the expansion really started — five years ago, it was enough that Brazil under President Lula seemed to have a handle on inflation and a reasonably pro-business government. Now, it’s one of the few large, stable […]

  • “22.3% Dividend Yield in the Market that Has Outperformed Both China and India!”

    Today we’re looking at a high yield stock that’s being pitched by Carla Pasternak for her new High-Yield International newsletter that looks for big dividends overseas. High Yield International has been around for a while, as far as I can tell — it used to be edited by Nick Lanyi, so perhaps he’s moved on […]

  • “Brazilian Bank Stocks to go Ballistic” Navellier

    This one will be a bit of a quickie, I’m working on a much longer one for tomorrow so we’ll see what we can churn out for you today. The teaser comes in from Louis Navellier for his Quantum Growth service, who in typical exuberance tells us that … “The opportunity of a lifetime is […]

  • Penny Oil Speculator: 15-cent Brazil Oil

    Here’s one that got the attention of many of my readers: it’s a microcap oil play, one that our advertiser believes will send shares from 15 cents to (possibly) $5 a share. They apparently have leases in Brazil in some prime oil territory. Some excerpts from the ad: “When you sign on to Penny Oil […]

  • “Invest in the Most Efficient Way to Feed the World”

    This teaser is a very brief one, from Tom Dyson for his International Strategist newsletter. Dyson is known better to the Gumshoe faithful for his role as the progenitor of the 801(k) strategy that so many of you have found compelling, which was part of a teaser for his 12% Letter on income investing. He […]

  • Skousen: “Brazilian Food Stock Fattens Your Portfolio”

    This one came in from a few readers via email today, which is always delightful — but today it was even more of a delight, because here we have a company whose shares I own, and whose future I’m also fairly excited about. The ad is for Mark Skousen’s Hedge Fund Trader service, one of […]

  • “Brazilian Earnings Surprise Coming — Oct. 25”

    This email came in today from Mark Skousen, and since it’s a quick and dirty one I thought I’d throw it into the mix for y’all. Skousen’s Hedge Fund Trader, which is what’s being advertised here, is predicting that this Brazilian company will report earnings on October 25 and blow the market away. Now, before […]

  • Martin Weiss: Like Buying China in 1990

    OK, so I’m departing from my typical sleuthing ways on this one a little bit. I spent a little time at an investing conference a few days ago, and many of the newsletter folks that you’ve all heard of were there, making their spiels or just lecturing. One of them that I happened to hear […]
