This counts as a “holy crap!” week when it comes to earnings, not because of any huge reporting that moved the market but because of the surge by just one stock, our fad retailer Five Below (FIVE) after earnings on Wednesday night. FIVE is generally lumped into the “dollar store” category, it’s the teen-focused retailer […]
So… what’s been happening to the Real Money Portfolio stocks this week? What else caught my eye? No transactions this week, but plenty of stuff to think about… Clean TeQ Holdings (CLQ.AX, CLQ.TO, CTEQF) announced a somewhat surprising equity raise a couple days ago. It seems inspired largely by urgency — they can’t really claim […]
So what’s going on in the world this week? Uranium caught my eye… dominant uranium miner Cameco (CCJ) is suspending production at some of their Saskatchewan operations, so the other uranium names took that as a good sign, with the juniors in the space seeing their stock prices pop (the whole sector, as represented by […]
Well, we finish out the week with yet another dramatic performance from the market-dominating tech stocks. Alphabet (GOOG) did better than expected and popped a bit, climbing further through the day, almost as much as the gains Microsoft (MSFT) made on a more dramatic ‘beat’ of expectations (though analysts have always been better at estimating […]
Welcome back, me! I’ve been vacationing for a week or so, and I’m ready to dive back into the teaser swamps to see what little morsels we might find to discuss. This one was an easy pick for the Thinkolator’s first project of the week: Nick Hodge is pitching one of his newsletters, Wall Street’s […]
Each year I check in on every company that I own and cover for the Irregulars, even those where my opinion doesn’t change much from month to month (or even from year to year, in some cases)… but we’re going to do it a little differently this year. This is all part of what will […]
Nick Hodge is pitching his Early Advantage newsletter (about $800) with a story about a “golden loophole” that he says provides your best path to profits in the precious metals business — and lots of readers have asked me about that “loophole” this morning, so we’re going to put the Thinkolator to work identifying the […]
I’ve been getting lots of questions about this recent email ad touting a “$1 Stock that’s about to go vertical,” so I took a quick look — and it turns out that the pitch is really the ad they’re sending is just a lightly updated version of the “Obama’s Secret Pipeline” ad that they started […]
Thoughts from Myron — U.S. Uranium Producers & Canadian Explorers in Athabasca Basin
Ed. note: Here’s the latest installment from longtime reader and junior miner man Myron Martin. He has agreed to our trading restrictions, and we have not reviewed, approved or screened his stocks or ideas, and the opinions he expresses are solely his own. Many of the stocks Myron covers are microcap “penny stocks” that can move dramatically […]
This latest pitch coming through from the Wealth Daily folks, for Jimmy Mengel’s The Crow’s Nest advisory, has caught the attention of plenty of Gumshoe readers — it starts with a long spiel about tapping into the “secret” holdings of billionaires by using a SEC disclosure rule that these rich folks are all fighting tooth […]
I should tell you up front that this isn’t the newest teaser in my inbox — I’ve had it come in from readers a few times in the last month or so, but I think it was probably written right around the beginning of the year … in part because of some of the specific […]
Today’s teaser ad comes in from Nathan Slaughter, who’s trying to entice us to subscribe to his Scarcity & Real Wealth newsletter, a new offering from the StreetAuthority folks that’s focused, as you can probably guess, on investing in mining, energy and commodities. And though the ad has been running for about two weeks as […]
Today I’m running late for a performance by one of my fabulously talented children, so I have to give you just a brief answer and open up the floor for questions and comments — let you, in short, do the research without much of a head start from me. I can, however, at least tell […]
I haven’t looked at a teaser for any of Ian Cooper’s newsletters in a while, so when this ad for the Pure Asset Trader crossed my screen it piqued my interest — it’s got a few teasers in it, some of them a bit thin on the clues, but I think we can probably tickle […]
Lots of folks have been asking about this pitch from Alternative Energy Speculator, a newsletter that has brought us a few interesting ideas (and, of course, a few duds) in the past. At the moment they’re charging about $500 for a year’s subscription, and clearly there are a lot of folks who’d like to learn […]
Yesterday we looked at the “one shot” heart disease biotech stock from Marc Lichtenfeld, who’s one of the group that Mt. Vernon Research is calling their “pit bulls” as they pitch the special report with some favorite picks from the gang. And lo and behold, they go on to tease a bunch of other investments […]
Elliott Gue made a name for himself as an energy stock analyst before he took over the much larger Personal Finance, and he still gets the teaser ads rolling pretty frequently for his Energy Strategist newsletter (now he calls the subscribers the “Energy Society” … feels more special, no?) And lately he’s been pushing a […]
OK, I’m just about out of time as I rush to begin the fabulous Gumshoe vacation, but I’ve got a quick new one to share with you before I get sand between my toes. This one is from an ad for the Wealth Advisory, by Steve Christ, and it’s about uranium enrichment. I can’t go […]
I wrote last night about the energy crisis pick that was being teased as a beneficiary of the “Dallas Step Change Resolution,” and, if you’ll recall, I ran out of steam (and words) before getting to the second company that was teased in that ad. The ad was for Mike Burnick’s Market Shock Trader, and […]
Many of you have been interested in the MEGA-U308 teaser that’s been circulating from GRESSOR and Taipan recently. I’ve had several readers send in the suggested solution to this one, but I wasn’t ever able to confirm with as much certainty as I would like … thanks to the forum, though, readers like you can […]
I may as well have called this post, “another frickin’ uranium teaser” — it’s getting a little ridiculous right now. I think we can probably count all the investment newsletters that aren’t trying to jump on the uranium bandwagon on one hand. But hey, there’s no denying that uranium is in a bull market (though […]
That is definitely the oddest title I’ve ever heard of anyone being given. But give it they did — at least, in a newsletter solicitation that a reader cut and pasted and sent to me. Unfortunately, I don’t know who the email is from so I’ll just paste all the info I have about this […]
