I just realized that we blew through the 11-year anniversary of the launch of Stock Gumshoe just a few days ago… and forgot to have a party or light the fireworks or anything. Ooops. Guess I was distracted by this nutty stock market… so, “happy birthday to us!” And thank you, dearest Irregular, for making […]

Several folks have asked about the state of Altius Minerals (ALS.TO, ATUSF), which I’ve written about for you many times and have owned for about seven years (time flies when you’re having fun!). They just released their quarterly filing, and the initial impression is “more of the same” — the business is chugging along, cash […]
I’m going to throw our Idea of the Month out here for you early this time around, because the stock has had some fundamental changes, is trading quite cheaply, and stands a reasonable chance, I think, of posting substantial returns over the next two years (and possibly a dividend in the meantime). And it should […]
I’ve been getting more questions about this “Billionaire’s Portfolio” service lately, so we’ll get you a quick answer to one of their teaser pitches today. The newsletter itself is essentially one in a long line of “whale watcher” services — those who follow big investors, mostly through SEC filings, and try to either mimic their […]
I haven’t written about Benjamin Shepherd’s Global Investment Strategist in quite a long time, so when folks started asking about his pitch for “Black Rock Fuel” I thought I’d take a look for you — and it so happens that today is Friday, so we’ll be doing it Friday File-style, Irregulars only. Before I dig […]
Very interesting and honest take on the breakdown in India from an honest Indian money manager. He’s clear about how terrible things are in India — but says that India has been cyclical and the underlying reasons for the economy to grow are still there … and the stocks are cheap. Business confidence at lows, […]
In case you’re following Altius Minerals (ALS.TO ATUSF), the 10% pop that mostly came late on Friday (though it’s still rising today so far) was from Alderon’s (AXX ADV.TO) deal with Hebei closing and getting that financing on board for development of the Kami mine — Hebei put up $120 million, so that’s a huge […]
Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF) got absolutely clobbered this week, with their stock falling 20% after they announced they were cutting the dividend quite drastically (partly because of funding pressures, partly because of their high-cost acquisitions in the past, partly because of lower expectations for future production — there’s a good note on that here from […]
Many of you remember well or are still enjoying the terrific surge that my favorite gold stock, Sandstorm Gold, enjoyed on the heels of a big push from both Stansberry’s Phase 1 and Peter Krauth’s Global Resource Alert — you can see my latest free article on that one here, and all of my past […]
Today we come back once again to our old friend Louis Navellier — largely because he’s pitching something that my readers ask me about all the time, a way to get a decent income yield from a mining stock (most of which, despite all the teasers about gold stocks that pay dividends, have tiny yields […]
