Every year we call out a “turkey” stock teaser around Thanksgiving time and poke a bit of fun at some terrible investment ideas… … so it seems only fair to highlight a few winners as well, and this week, when we’re otherwise closed for the holiday, seems a good time to spread some cheer and […]

Here’s a lead-in that really gets to straight to the point, in the latest ad from Stansberry’s “value guy” Dan Ferris: “I’ve found a $13 gold stock that every Stansberry reader should buy today. “Not tomorrow. “Not next week. Or next month. “Today. “Before it moves out of buy range. (It’s very close.)” And, of […]
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 […]
Dan Ferris Gold pitchStansberry’s Most Secretive Analyst Comes Forward – Says ONE Stock Could Return 20x Long Term and Save Your Retirement in the Coming Crash ”If I had to put all my money in one stock, this would be it.” P.S. Dan predicts the Best Gold Business on Earth could easily shoot up 100% or more in […]
This article was first published in late February, and was lightly updated in April, the last time the ad ran heavily — and now the ad is circulating again in mid-August, so I’ve made some slight updates again. What follows is mostly unchanged from 2/28. The price of the stock is also again close to […]
I like the work of Dan Ferris, I’ve seen him present at a few conferences over the years, and have read plenty of his free commentaries (and teaser ads), and his ideas, while not particularly sexy, are well-researched and interesting. That doesn’t mean they’re always successful, of course — I’ve written about several stocks he […]
“You never see investment returns like this. “32,000% on one deal. 900% on another. “All told, these guys have made nearly $14 for every $1 they’ve ever invested. “So who are they? “It’s not Warren Buffett and his team at Berkshire Hathaway… or the exorbitantly paid investment team at any of the big New York […]
We’ve been on strange schedules here in Gumshoeland for the last two weeks, and during that time we’ve seen a large number of quarterly reports come through that deserve some attention or comment… as well as a few other notable news items that I feel like I should pay attention to. And, of course, we’ve […]
OK, we’re coming into our very sloooow period of the year, and will be closing down for the holidays after another article or two… but this is a teaser pitch that needs answering. We haven’t had this many questions about a teaser campaign over a weekend in quite a while. Dan Ferris edits Extreme Value […]
We’re closing up shop early today for Veteran’s Day, and in the spirit of the holiday we’re running a membership special today. Stock Gumshoe will donate 50% of all membership revenue today and tomorrow to Homes for our Troops, an excellent charitable organization that builds specially adapted homes for severely disabled veterans — so for […]
I hate to continue to write about this small company with great frequency, since it smacks of “talking my book” (it’s a major personal holding), but we have received a lot of questions from readers today about Dan Ferris’ latest pitch, so we’re re-running our previous free article about this one. Last time around, it […]
Dan Ferris has a new teaser pitch out for his Extreme Value newsletter about a “Penny Real Estate” pick that he say is worth multiples of the current stock price. I’m going to cover it on Friday for the Irregulars, because it’s a stock I’ve written about for them before, but I thought I’d just […]
Dan Ferris edits the Extreme Value newsletter for Stansberry, and he has teased a few interesting ideas for that letter in the past (including, starting several years ago, Altius Minerals (ALS.TO, ATUSF), which has become one of my largest personal holdings) … so I tend to pay attention when he starts to pitch a new […]
These are my notes and instant reactions from a presentation at the Value Investing Congress, the notes below might contain errors, paraphrases, incorrect quotes, or misinterpretations. Dan Ferris, who we have covered many times, is presenting about Altius Minerals (ALS.TO, ATUSF), which he has covered for years and we’ve written about many times (it’s also […]
I always like to squeeze in the pre-conference workshop at the Value Investing Congress, because in that much smaller group we tend to get more discussion and deeper analysis… and the stories aren’t all blogged by a hundred people and on CNBC, so there’s usually time to consider them. It takes me some time after […]
Over the last few days I’ve been getting a lot of questions from Gumshoe readers about the latest “World Dominator” pick from Dan Ferris over at Stansberry’s Extreme Value newsletter — they’ve apparently been hinting at it and teasing it to the subscribers of their other letters, and piquing the interest of my readers who […]
I have a few thoughts to share with my favorite Irregulars today for our Friday File (we also shared a new article from Doc Gumshoe earlier today if you’re interested). Today we’re looking at a few trades I’ve made this week (four buys and one sell), updating thoughts on a couple companies I’ve covered before, […]
I know that many of you have seen the teasers for the “$1.10 a Day Retirement Plan” that are being sent around the interwebs by the folks at the 12% Letter — not many folks have the email marketing might of Stansberry & Associates, that letter’s publisher, and lots of you have been asking about […]
I guess we should really be calling this “A.O.P. 2.0”, since the Stansberry folks used this same basic marketing pitch on investors about five years ago — though I think that was in service of their S&A Resource Report (then called the S&A Oil Report), and this one is an ad for the relatively conservative, […]
It’s probably no surprise that the Stansberry & Associates newsletters probably get more attention from Stock Gumshoe than most of the others — they’re right up there with the Motley Fool when it comes to the size of their mailing lists and the response from our readers to their promos, so everything they do and […]
The 801(k) teaser letter for Stansberry and Associates’ 12% Letter was among the most hugely successful email campaigns out there — at least, if the interest of my readers is any indication. That ad generated more questions than any other for a period of about a year … … but that was back in 2007 […]
I don’t often cover the same editor or pundit twice in a row, but it’s not exactly a hard rule … which is a relief, because the most interesting thing I came across this morning was another teaser from Dan Ferris. Now, it’s not the same hard sell as his 12% Letter pitch that we […]
We haven’t covered the 12% Letter in these pages for a few months, if memory serves, so I was pleased to get several questions from readers about their latest teaser for the “secret retirement legacy” that’s apparently been offered up by George Bush (the dumber one, not the older one). Did I just type that […]
Time with family and bloated turkey-filled bellies did nothing to slow down the avalanche of newsletter teaser ads — heck, we even saw plenty of “black Friday” deals for all those folks who are hoping to stuff a newsletter subscription into little Timmy’s Christmas stocking (yay!) But perhaps the most popular one that’s been sent […]
OK, you can stop asking now — because we’re just about to finish up with our latest multi-part series, covering the “loopholes” from the “Black Market Income” teaser for Stansberry’s 12% Letter. This letter pitches the idea that they have a secret website that “Wall Street” doesn’t want you to see — all about how […]
Well, I told you yesterday that I’d be following up on the teaser from 12% Letter for their “Black Market Income” website that presents a variety of ways of increasing your investment income … so let’s do it! If you missed yesterday, I gave a quick run-through of several of the “loopholes” that Dan Ferris […]
A couple variations on this teaser about “black market income” have been rolling around the marketplace for months now — the actual investments are still relatively normal, mainstream-ish companies and strategies, just as they were when the 12% Letter called parts of this “black market income” strategy by other names, which is why I haven’t […]
Today’s tease didn’t come to me directly and I haven’t seen the original ad or letter where it appeared, but this excerpt was forwarded by a large number of folks who appear to have some interest in a good ‘ol blue chip-type investment. The tease must have been in some kind of subscribers-only letter for […]
I always like to see what Dan Ferris is recommending for subscribers of his Extreme Value newsletter, in part because I’m personally invested in a few of his picks that have done well (Altius Minerals and Sprott Resource), and in part because I’m generally sympathetic to the notion that long-term “value” investing is the best […]
This article is an excerpt from the May 21 Friday File (the extra commentary that paid members of this site receive) — but I’m still getting a lot of questions about Dan Ferris and his farming stock, so what follows is the part of that note regarding the teased agriculture company. I have not updated […]
I always like reading Dan Ferris’ stuff — he does the cranky loner act so well I can only assume that it’s real, and the latest ad for his Extreme Value newsletter is no different. This newsletter is slotted in as the “deep value” letter at Stansberry & Associates, and he has often recommended either […]
This new teaser from Dan Ferris for his Extreme Value newsletter wins the prize for “most questions sent to the Gumshoe” over the weekend … so I thought I better jump right on it this morning. If you get any of the Agora or Stansberry free emails, or subscribe to any newsletters in those families, […]
This ad has been floating to the top of my inbox for a couple days now, and since the people have spoken I thought I better write about it right quick for you — I am, after all, your humble sleuthing servant. Well, OK, maybe not so humble all the time, but do you want […]
This ad comes in for the Extreme Value newsletter from Stansberry & Associates, edited by Dan Ferris. The name of the newsletter is no accident, Ferris apparently looks for deep value and hidden value stocks, not unlike some other traditional “value” stock pickers. This time, he’s telling us that there’s a “distortion” in the gold […]
Monthly newsletter that recommends “deep value” stocks.
Now this one sounds exciting, eh? I don’t want to say that the mighty, mighty Gumshoe is a lazy man, but I must admit that the idea of a work week that lasts only ten minutes has some appeal … what the heck are they talking about? It’ll take me longer than ten minutes, but […]
This teaser email came in a week or so ago, from another Stansberry service, Extreme Value by Dan Ferris. Here’s how they whet our appetite: “In 17 days… The 19,900% Mutual Fund Could Close for Good… “MSNBC says… “Get in line early for this fund.” “It’s been called the “Holy Grail” of mutual funds…” Nice, […]
Apparently the sexy appeal of hedge funds has not worn off yet for individual investors, because the folks at Stansberry Research keep teasing their deep value picks by comparing them to hedge funds. Last time around it was the “secret penny hedge fund” that turned out to be Winthrop Realty Trust. This time around, the […]
This one came in recently from Stansberry and Associates, it’s an ad for the S&A Penny Letter from Dan Ferris, who also does the Extreme Value letter. This newsletter focuses on what they call “Penny Stocks,” though personally I think they’ve got a pretty liberal definition of that term. They say they are looking for […]
This one came in with an ad for the True Wealth newsletter from Dan Ferris, and of course they’d like to offer you a special “autorenew” option for $79 a year … and in exchange, you get this fabulous stock idea from Dan. So what is it? “…the North American natural resource company Dan will […]
This one comes to us from Dan Ferris, at Stansberry and Associates. It came to me through a reader, who also suggested a solution, so I don’t have the whole email … but the only newsletter Ferris edits is Extreme Value, which runs $1,000 a year. And yes, it’s about a plastics company … using […]
