Continuing the rundown of the best teaser picks of the year, this one comes from the Motley Fool, specifically from their Rule Breakers newsletter, and it is the only one of the “next Google” stocks that I’ve seen teased that has gotten even close to a double so far. It reached a 141% gain that [...]
And as we continue the rundown of the most successful teaser stocks of the year, here’s number two. This is a solar stock, so obviously it has done well this year (I think LDK Solar is the only one to come to mind that hasn’t ramped up consistently nearly all year). And in addition to [...]
During this final week of the year when I’m unlikely to get to any in depth analysis or new sleuthing jobs, I’ll be sharing some reruns for you: These are mostly teasers that were active back in the Spring and have had a chance to advance more than 100% since then, and I’ll be running [...]
This one has been floating around for a month or so, and I did write briefly about it when it was being touted as the supplier that would take a 50% leap on iPhone sales (that was back in October). This is a teaser that came in from Ann Sosnowski at Diligent Investor, who spins [...]
This one comes in from Greg McCoach, who edits the pretty popular Mining Speculator, and I’m always interested to hear about what he’s touting — especially since McCoach currently holds the top spot in the Gumshoe Spreadsheet with his pick of Duluth Mining. This pick is apparently for a new service of his, Insider Alert, [...]
I was just browsing the Stock Gumshoe Spreadsheet, which I am wont to do from time to time to see if anything interesting has happened to these companies, and at the same time it occurs to me that I’ve recently seen a good number of enthusiastic emails and comments from readers who are frantic to [...]
Another one that’s partially from the archives: Navellier has been sending out a teaser mentioning seven “Million Dollar Machines” that he thinks are great investments right now. This whole “Million Dollar Machine” concept was one he trotted out over the Summer, too and apparently it was pretty successful (why else would we be seeing it [...]
For those who weren’t waiting on the Gumshoe’s every word back in March, this is a rerun that has been emailed like crazy nationwide in the last few weeks … at least, if the flood of emails I’m getting about this one is any indication. So, the company’s still the same, the teaser is still [...]
This one opens up with some tantalizing language, of course: “NEW GOVERNMENT POLICY PROMISES TO FLOOD NEW PROFITS INTO THIS HIGH-DIVIDEND PAYING COMPANY!” It’s from Mark Skousen, from his High Income Alert newsletter — and of course, if you’d please subscribe, he’ll tell you the name of this secret telecom stock that’s paying massive dividends [...]
Here we are again — folks start thinking about Warren Buffett again, now that he seems to be on CNBC every day and Berkshire Hathaway has had a remarkable year (up about 50%, not bad for one of the biggest companies in the country). And so the “next Warren Buffett” teasers start circulating again. I’m [...]
Don’t worry, this is not about turtle soup, or about chopping up leatherbacks and making acne cream out of them … this is about a whole different kind of sea turtle. The “Hai Gui” or “sea turtles” of China are the returning scientists and businessmen that are driving, in part, the resurgence of the Chinese [...]
OK, so that headline sounds pretty odd for those of you (which is most of you, actually) who don’t also participate over at the Stock Gumshoe Forum. I offered a prize for the best posting on the forum last week, as I’ve done a few times over the last six months or so, and this [...]
Once again, Streetsifter has scooped the Gumshoe and written up another one for you, this one on a way to “profit from Exxon’s misfortune” and “turn $4 into $45″ — just when the Gumshoe runs short on time, our friend Streetsifter seems to pull a great nicely-summarized sleuth job out of his hat for all [...]
This teaser and the solution come in from our old friend Streetsifter, who has written up a few solutions in this space in the past — t0 the great appreciation of your Gumshoe. His solution has been confirmed by a few other readers who I know do a good job sniffing out solutions, so he’s [...]
This is an interesting one from Doug Fabian that I got a few days ago, teasing an income boosting strategy that uses dividends in a special way. He’d like you to sign up for a subscription to High Monthly Income to find out how to get this great dividend cash flow. In his words, “I [...]
I recently had a reader email me another oil company teaser — not an oil sands company this time, but a regular ‘ol oil firm. The teaser was for Eric Roseman’s Commodity Trend Alert, which I haven’t looked at before, but it was for a company that I did look at a while back. The [...]
This one comes in from Brian Hicks, who is selling what I think is a new newsletter service called the $20 Trillion Report … … and this one has a nice little twist — it’s built around a book that Brian Hicks and Chris Nelder just wrote called Profit from the Peak: The End of [...]
OK, so this is not something in which I am an expert — and it’s not the kind of stock teaser I usually like to look at, because the service has nothing to do with company fundamentals or interesting stories or profits or price/sales ratios or new products or FDA approvals or fast-growing economies or [...]
The folks at Stansberry and Associates have come out with a new newsletter, perfectly designed to focus on exactly what everyone seems to want right now: Foreign Stocks. This one is called International Strategist, and they’ve got a teaser campaign designed to get you on board with a trial subscription. The teaser campaign is generally [...]
This here one is an oldie but a goodie — it’s one that I sniffed out back in April, when but a few courageous souls were following the Gumshoe’s exploits. Now that readership here has exploded tenfold or more, and this teaser ad, virtually word for word, has recently started making the rounds again, I [...]
