The plan for today? Figure out what other name might be associated with Nikola Tesla, and use it as the name for a new-age company. Venture funding should flow without regard to merit, and you might just be able to go straight to an IPO and buy that private island. Nikola (NKLA) is taken, thanks […]

In case you’ve been living under a rock, the hot IPO news this year is that both Lyft and Uber are going public (along with other mega-IPOs Pinterest (PINS) and, probably, Palantir) — Lyft (LYFT) is already trading and generated a lot of excitement on the first day, though came back down sharply almost immediately, […]
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 […]
The next wireless standard to be adopted by telecom service providers might be the biggest one since 3G enabled the first real “high speed” data and reasonably useful internet access by smart phones. And new wireless standards are always of interest to investors, not least because the growth of smartphones has tracked the improving networks […]
Everybody looooves IPOs, they bring with them the allure of “getting in early” and being a special first-mover who can brag about “buying the future” … so it’s not unusual to see newsletters teased because they have some secret idea for “getting in the back door” or buying BEFORE an IPO, but this new IPO […]
I feel like I’m waggling back and forth on a strange tightrope, as I’ve been doing for about a year and a half now, and I sum it up kinda like this: I’m quite nervous about the valuations of the overall market and about the massive debt load for both governments and individuals in the […]
Wyatt Research is doing another “how to buy pre-IPOs” seminar that’s actually a hard sell for his Million Dollar Portfolio ($795/year), and this one’s built on the “get in early on Flipkart” idea. Flipkart, if you’re unaware, is the leading e-commerce brand in India — sort of like the “Amazon of India,” though it’s very […]
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, […]
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 […]
So… what’s been happening with the stocks I follow and write about for my favorite Irregulars? We’ve had a couple weeks pass since I last checked in, thanks to my vacation and the Pan Mass Challenge, so there’s a bit to catch up on… (and thanks again to those who sponsored me, once I get […]
Bonner & Partners, which is yet another publisher subsidiary of Bill Bonner’s Agora empire, has a new teaser pitch out for Jeff Brown’s Exponential Tech Investor — and what caught the eye of Gumshoe readers was the headline, in the ad from Bonner’s Managing Director Amber Lee Mason, that promises huge gains from a “$39 […]
Originally published August 10, 2015, the article below has not been updated but the ad is now rolling again and I’ve added some comments to the discussion following the article. —from 8/10/15— This latest pitch from Michael Robinson for his Radical Technology Profits (selling a $3,900 lifetime subscription) caught the eye of many of you […]
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 […]
Brad Hoppmann at Uncommon Wisdom Daily is pitching his “entry level” Cash Flow Kings newsletter by promising two “secret” investments that will help you profit from the “Fall of the Wall” … so what’s he talking about? Well, the “Wall” is, of course, his metaphor for what a lot of folks, particularly the small investors […]
A fairly quiet week in Gumshoedom — we’ve also got a new column from Dr. KSS today, which you can see here, and what follows is my “Friday File” thoughts on a few investments I’ve written about recently. I spoke with Sven Weber, manager of the SharesPost 100 Fund (PRIVX) on the phone earlier this […]
I’ll be on the road today, dear friends and Irregulars, so I’ll send this Friday File out in the morning since it’s (uncharacteristically) ready before the market open. Enjoy! Well, there’s no question about what Irregulars want covered in the Friday File this week… the latest pitch from Louis James at Casey Research about a […]
This article was originally published as the Friday File for the Irregulars on April 3. Following the huge number of requests for info on this teaser, we’ve opened it up to free readers as of April 22 — it has not been updated or revised. Michael Robinson has a lot of enthusiasm for startups and […]
That headline comes to us from Wall Street Daily, soliciting subscribers for Robert Williams’ True Alpha, and it’s one of the more attention-getting strategies that newsletter use to pitch ideas: Getting in early. Sometimes “early” means buying a stock before a catalyst is widely known, sometimes it means just buying before your investing friends have […]
