Hey everyone, thank you Travis for your years of articles and willingness to share your portfolio. It is enjoyable reading. Ian Wyatt is driving me nuts, i get 3 emails per day for the last month about the #1 little known PRE IPO EV Battery Stock. It will be in GMs cars, “Buy it before […]
Articles
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 getting ready to close down for the holiday, seems a good time to spread […]
I’ve written about a bunch of “pre-IPO” investments in the past, but Ian Wyatt has probably been more relentless than anyone else in promoting this idea of “buying in before it’s public” … particularly when it comes to the hot “brand names” that excite investors. Wyatt’s latest pitch is for a “webinar” that will air […]
My spirits have been lifted a bit in the last week… not so much by the general state of the world (unemployment is horrifying, the pandemic remains scary, politics has sunk even further into the gutter, a big chunk of the world is literally on fire, again), but by the return of some seasonal patterns […]
Dear Travis: I’m a beginner investor, just getting my feet wet. Thanks for your very intelligent analysis and advise on the multiple paid mysterious stock offers. I’m very happy with your service and it’s been very useful to me. Yesterday I watched Ian Wyatt pre IPO presentation. Definitely he made a very compelling argument for […]
Income-focused trading service that focuses on things like option selling, covered calls, and other trading strategies to generate cash flow.
This ad from Ian Wyatt has been running for a little while, with some apparent variation, but he keeps aggressively re-pushing it as a “new” webinar, so our readers keep asking about it, and I haven’t covered the tease yet… so that’s our project for today. What are those top five stocks he keeps teasing? […]
Ian Wyatt has been out over the past couple weeks with some “webinars” in which he talks up the coronavirus outbreak (for an hour!) and then ends his show with a tease about several “special reports” on the stocks he thinks will make you a lot of money as we fight COVID-19… and, of course, […]
Ian Wyatt is out with a new ad for a “urgent briefing” that will be taking place today about a “secret billionaire investment”… and while the briefing hasn’t happened yet, so we’re not sure what the pitch will be, odds are good that he’s going to keep the “insider shares” secret and dangle a subscription […]
New (2019) higher-end service from Wyatt Investment Research, promoted as providing access to “pre-IPO” shares (private placements).
We’ve seen plenty of “get in before the IPO” pitches over the years, and that has only accelerated as more and more companies have taken advantage of the JOBS Act to raise money under easier rules — particularly the “democratization” of private funding to allow unaccredited investors to invest in small private companies. Combining that […]
I covered this teaser pitch from Marin Katusa as part of a Friday File for our Irregulars way back in February, and I’m getting buckets of questions about this “Forever Royalties” pitch again so I thought I should double check and update this — and share it with everyone, not just our paying members (yes, […]
Today we take a quick look at an Ian Wyatt teaser, since he is pushing it hard today with a special “webinar” presentation and a tight deadline… which will probably spur some folks to sign up in eagerness to “claim $2,363” in a big check that will be issued on May 22 (which is, you […]
In case you’ve been living under a rock, the hot IPO news this year is that both Lyft and Uber will be going public very soon — Lyft, in fact, should hit the public markets for the first time on Friday after setting a price for the IPO tomorrow, and their larger competitor will be […]
We’ve gotten similar “liberty check” pitches from Stephen Mauzy and Ian Wyatt in the past, but they always sound so very compelling and bring a lot of questions our way… so we’re looking at another ad today. I’m going off of a promo for a special “webinar” that they were hosting today, and I didn’t […]
This ad makes me sad in many ways, but readers have been asking… so let’s get you some answers. Here’s part of the intro email from Ian Wyatt, who’s pitching a “urgent trade alert” that will be part of another of his webinars (or if you want to be old-fashioned, “infommercials”) to be hosted on […]
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 […]
This pitch sounds quite familiar, and there’s a good reason for that — Ian Wyatt last year pushed quite hard on a favorite special dividend play… and this initially looked like a repeat of that, because the company that paid a huge special dividend around Thanksgiving last year is again paying one right now. How’s […]
Ian Wyatt is pitching a “pre-IPO” opportunity in Spotify, the music-streaming business that is going public on the NYSE tomorrow… so what’s the story? Can you “get in early?” Should you want to? What’s this all about, anyway? We’ve gotten quite a few questions slipped under the door here at Gumshoe HQ about this one, […]
Ian Wyatt has another “special dividend” presentation that’s currently being heavily promoted to lure new subscribers for one of his newsletters… and like the one we looked at last year, this is a pitch for Steve Mauzy’s Dividend Confidential. If you don’t know what “special dividends” are, they’re essentially one-time dividends that don’t imply any […]
Investors love the idea of a “back door” — they want to be able to get in on something before everybody else, to get a taste of the big time without having to wait in line behind the velvet rope — and Wyatt Investment Research is using that notion to help convince people to subscribe […]
Launched in 2016, aims to recommend trades in companies that pay special dividends (either one-time or ongoing)
Ian Wyatt has been a fan of “special dividends” for some time, and has hinted at the huge potential payouts for his various investment newsletters over the years… this ad from him is in much the same vein, though he’s now selling a newsletter that is specifically focused on just these “special dividends.” And, as […]
This is just silly. Politicians always find their names appropriated by newsletter ad campaigns, because it’s an easy way to catch your eye — you’re already (or maybe not you, but lots of folks) feeling passionate about Donald Trump, or Hillary Clinton, or President Obama or whoever… so if those names are blazoned across an […]
Options trading service that aims for limited gains and lower risk. From their website: “Andy doesn’t swing for the fences or take undue risks; rather his proven, patient method delivers income producing wins the majority of the time.”
Ian Wyatt has teased “venture capital” style investments before for his Million Dollar Portfolio newsletter, but this one has at least one name that hasn’t popped up before… so I thought I’d take a look for you. (And from what I can tell it used to be the $100K portfolio, so I guess he’s doing […]
“Dozens of the world’s wealthiest are watching their income soar here… “… it’s not just because of its warm, tropical breezes and its pristine, crystal-clear waters. “And it’s not just because there’s no crime and little-to-no unemployment. “You see, this island paradise differs from so much of the developed in a much more fundamental way… […]
Sounds good, right? Sitting back and collecting a nice rent check every month — without having to be the guy who fixes the roof or calls the plumber or has to deal with tenants who skip town without paying or have loud parties and annoy the neighbors? It’s perfect! And, of course, it’s been eminently […]
Ian Wyatt is pitching a stock that he says is going to surge on the demand for more wireless data that comes with each new iteration of the iPhone or Samsung Galaxy… and I didn’t look at this ad for a few days, because it sounded really familiar. Wyatt’s copywriters love the Apple iPhone connection […]
This pitch has been around for more than a year now, but apparently it’s in heavy rotation again so I took another look today. And yes, you guessed it, the ad is almost completely unchanged from what ran in the Spring of 2013… the same pitch for REIT dividends being “Real Estate Tax Rebates,” the […]
“There’s a secret income opportunity buried deep within dusty Silicon Valley… “It’s called the Silicon Valley bank and it churns out a steady cash stream of 8.71%. “But unlike customary Silicon Valley deals, this unique opportunity isn’t reserved solely for big shots, private venture capital firms or Wall Street investment banks… “In other words, this […]
Today we are blessed with another teaser pitch from Ian Wyatt, who tells us he’s got the “one stock you must own” for this year … and he’ll tell you what it is just as soon as you sign up for his Top Stock Insights newsletter. The basic spiel is like many that have relied […]
That “top stock” headline is the promise of Ian Wyatt, not myself, just to be clear. Wyatt and Taylor Laundon put out a letter called Top Stock Insights, the text of the ad for that letter says it’s from Taylor and the letter is “signed” by Ian Wyatt, so I guess we’ll assume it’s a […]
I’ve gotten quite a few questions about the latest pitch from Ian Wyatt for his $100K Portfolio newsletter — this is his letter that tracks the trades of a $100,000 real money portfolio of his own money, started up a couple years ago when every newsletter publisher was trying out a “real money” letter. I […]
This is a teaser pitch that Ian Wyatt has been making for some time for his High-Yield Wealth newsletter, but it’s been about two years now since I first saw and wrote about this pitch … … and he is still pretty aggressively spreading this particular gospel, with the latest urgent rush to buy the […]
“One unique type of gold investment (that most Americans have never heard of) based in British Columbia has outperformed every asset class in existence – rising twice as fast as gold. “The average investor in this gold secret made over 80% a year for 20 straight years – even after gold crashed last year. “But […]
Ian Wyatt is out with a new teaser promo for his $100K Portfolio service, and it’s all about a young company that’s growing rapidly and changing America in a substantial way … with a free new “highway” across the country. He pitches this secret stock using the same kind of language that several other growth-focused […]
Ian Wyatt is selling his High-Yield Wealth newsletter by promising to help you get your first “gas rebate check” that can offset your high fuel expenses. Which sounds appealing, right? No one likes to fill up at the gas station, and people go gaga even for simple store card rebate programs that give you five […]
“January 1, 2013 it begins… “Just 54 Days left before your dividends get thrown off the fiscal cliff… “Most dividend investors will be wiped out by the coming tax nightmare… “But a small class of dividend companies will come out on top – regardless of whether Congress raises dividend taxes.” That’s the lead-in to the […]
Newsletter focused on stock picking in the commodities space.
Every single time the Apple iPhone is revised, refreshed or upgraded the wave of teasers comes crashing down upon us once more. Not that we’re complaining, mind you — this is, after all, the path we’ve chosen: They tease, we de-tease … if they stop, we stop. And frankly, we don’t have anything better to […]
Ian Wyatt is promoting his High Yield Wealth newsletter by touting a “little-known government loophole” that he thinks could help you collect a lot more income than a 401(k) account … so, naturally, we want to know what it is. Here’s how he drums up interest: “How a little-known government loophole called the ‘N54(a) Retirement […]
On a day when the Carlyle Group (CG) is making headlines for their IPO, which was generally received with a “meh” by Wall Street (priced slightly below the range, no pop on the IPO), why not take a look at a different private equity-type stock that’s apparently paying a much higher dividend? Or at least, […]
Now that Apple is the largest public company in the world, and the most popular stock, the eagerness with which newsletter guys tout “secret” Apple suppliers is ramping up still more … impressive in itself, since the basic “buy Apple suppliers” pitch has been around and making money for subscription-sellers ever since Synaptics was pitched […]
Originated as a “real money” $100,000 portfolio (called “Wyatt’s 100K Portfolio” at the time), mostly focused on “steady and reliable” ideas that generate income through dividends.
“What most investors don’t realize is that for a limited time, one American bank is offering an exclusive, under-the-radar CD that yields up to 13.16% annually. And just like any other CD – the principal is 100% insured by the FDIC for up to $250,000.” That’s what draw my eye to the latest tease from […]
This ad is not exactly brand new, but folks have been sending in queries about it for a few weeks, and pretty steadily, so I thought I’d try to get some answers out for you. The pitch is from Ian Wyatt, who’s trying to sell his Top Stock Insights newsletter by throwing in a “special […]
Energy focused stock advisory. Defunct.
Income-oriented newsletter focused on large dividends.
Sometimes we have a tendency to forget that the reason to own something is almost always to earn money on your investment — and that’s where dividends come in. Movements in stock prices and capital gains depend on the vagaries of the market, with stocks sometimes priced at 10 times earnings and sometimes at 30X […]
Ian Wyatt has been pitching the idea that you can “front run” Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway by buying stocks that he calls the “Warren Buffett Retirement Plan” — he’s done this before, but I think the stocks he’s teasing have changed this time around. There are three stock ideas hinted at in this teaser, […]
Monthly newsletter focusing on “larger growth stocks”
This note is very different from what I would write were it entitled, “Front-Running Buffett with David Sokol” — but since he has ended up in the SEC’s crosshairs, and been thrown under the bus by Warren since he made the ridiculously foolish choice to buy shares in a stock he was scouting out as […]
It’s shaping up to be Ian Wyatt week here at Stock Gumshoe — yesterday I took a look at a veiled hint of a Polish natural gas stock, and today we’re looking at a tease that looks like it may have started a couple months back but has been recently re-invigorated (and I haven’t researched […]
Today’s tease is from Ian Wyatt, who has his name on so many newsletters that I don’t know how he finds time to sleep, let alone watch Dancing with the Stars like any good red-blooded American (kidding! if there’s one thing I don’t want to see on TV, it’s reality). The letter he’s pitching now […]
Today’s tease hits home for most savers — the return you get for your money in the bank stinks, and most savings accounts and similarly “safe” savings vehicles yield don’t have interest yields that are even high enough to keep up with inflation. So the promise of a “savings account” that yields 8.2% is obviously […]
Dividends + Gold = Pretty much 99% of the questions I get from readers in any given day, so the headline of this teaser about getting a “8.4% Dividend From a Unique American Gold Investment” from Ian Wyatt for his Small Cap Investor Pro caught my eye: high dividends and gold? Where do I sign […]
Well, if the last ten years have taught us nothing else, we should have learned that this has been a spectacular time to promise that your investments are like Warren Buffett’s, or to sell folks on the idea of the “next” Berkshire Hathaway or Oracle of Omaha. I’ve written about probably dozens of stocks that […]
Today, for your Friday File pleasure, we roll out the Gumshoe carpet (we can make it a red one, if you like) for a recent tease from Ian Wyatt (again) for his SmallCapInvestor Pro newsletter — and this time, it’s about electricity. It’s also a tiny stock, so again, an appropriate one to look at […]
This teaser came to my attention a couple days ago, it’s from Ian Wyatt for his Energy World Profits newsletter, which as far as I can tell is new — it at least hasn’t been covered in this space before. It’s a newsletter that he edits with Gregor Mcdonald, who apparently is an “energy economist,” […]
That’s a nice promise, eh? A 10% dividend sounds just lovely right now … not that there aren’t a lot of 10% yielders around, of course, but perhaps this one is special? That’s what Ian Wyatt thinks, at least — he runs SmallCapInvestor PRO, and he’s telling us to look for small cap companies that […]
Paid service associated with SmallCapInvestor.com website, recommends small cap stocks and includes model portfolios.
“The Last Undiscovered Middle East Oil Field. Right now, there’s just one publicly traded company seriously looking for oil in this country. Just one. But this company has the exploration rights to 219,000 potentially oil-rich acres. And it just applied for the rights to another 245,000 acres. It could be nothing. The unique geology that produced billions of dollars of oil wealth in Saudi Arabia, Iran or Kuwait might simply stop at the borders of those countries… Or it might not.”
As another week of panic, fear, high oil prices, and skyrocketing food prices begins, let’s see if we can discover one of the folks likely to profit from the world’s hunger. Wow, that sounds much worse than I meant. OK, so we’re on the hunt for a fertilizer profiteer. Sorry. Just kidding! What we want […]
This stock teaser comes in from Ian Wyatt’s Growth Report newsletter, which I don’t think I’ve written about before. But the stock? That I have written about before. Those of you who’ve been around GumshoeLand for a little while might remember a teaser from Matt Badiali on the “Oil Sands Story 60 Minutes Missed” — […]
