“This Stock is Going Up, Big Time” — Porter Stansberry

“A Market Insider and Lifelong Friend Hands Me the Best Opportunity of 2009 “‘I can’t imagine a better stock to buy.’” That’s how the newest ad launches for Porter Stansberry’s Inside Strategist, a newsletter that has churned through at least two editors in the last few years, but which is now apparently run by Porter [...]

“The Two Titans of Business Intelligence” — Motley Fool

“How to multiply YOUR wealth with the behind-the-scenes technology Fortune 500 CEOs are quietly riding to record profits… “Experts call it “the new science of winning.” The Economist says it’s “a golden vein.” FedEx, Capital One, Amazon, and even the Boston Red Sox can’t function without it. “Now a team of professional opportunity-seekers has uncovered [...]

“Number 1 Global Stock Idea for 2009″ — Motley Fool

This tease comes in an ad for the Motley Fool’s Global Gains newsletter, which has brought some interesting ideas to our attention during its relatively short life so far (though I imagine it probably had a terrible year last year — this is one of the few Motley Fool newsletters that Hulbert doesn’t track, and [...]

1,400% Gains from Iraqi Oil, Part Two

Late last week I wrote about a new teaser from the Phase 1 newsletter at Stansberry & Associates — as far as these things go it’s actually a relatively low-hype, fact-based teaser ad, since there’s a pretty big fundamental argument in favor of anyone who can profit from Iraq’s oil reserves (as well as lots [...]

Iraqi Oil: “The Most Dangerous 1,400%+ You’ll Ever See?”

This ad is getting a lot of attention from my readers, if my inbox is any indication — it’s for the Phase 1 Investor service from Stansberry & Associates, which is their expensive premium letter that has historically focused mostly on biotech stocks but is also used by them for any super-tiny stocks that would [...]

“Betting on the next BRIC economy” Nicholas Vardy

I haven’t written about Nicholas Vardy and his Global Stock Investor very many times, but several folks sent in his latest teaser ad and it piqued my interest a little bit. So let’s have at it, shall we? As you might imagine, Vardy focuses on foreign stocks — though he’s aiming for US investors so [...]

“How to Buy U.S. Government Backed Silver for $1.25, and get a Free Retirement Loan”

This ad sounds a little bit like a very popular one we looked at a few months back — then, it was for $1 “Silver Shots”, and it was a teaser for a leveraged derivative trade on silver futures (or, in plainer speak, it was for long-term call options on the SLV ETF). If you [...]

“America’s Hidden Resource: Poised to hand you generous profits”

This teaser ad comes in for a newsletter I’ve written about many, many times over the past couple years, the Motley Fool Stock Advisor. And this is a good ‘ol patriotic “stand up and cheer” ad — all about how the Chinese can’t beat us when we’ve got some of the most critical technology and [...]

Supercharge Your Wealth and Pay (Nearly) No Taxes!

That headline comes from an ad for a new income-focused newsletter that is just launching now … Roger Conrad and Elliott Gue are starting a service that sounds quite familiar — they’re calling it MLP Profits, and it will be focusing, you guessed it, on Master Limited Partnerships. The publisher, KCI, tried to launch something [...]

Make Your Millions with “The Next Wireless Billionaires” — Tobin Smith

I haven’t looked much at Tobin Smith and his ChangeWave services over the past year or so — I think the last teaser of his that I looked at was hyping Sigma Designs back in April of 2008, which he promised would be a huge gainer within a year. Of course, that didn’t take into [...]

“Politically Incorrect Doubler to Deliver 500% Earnings Growth” Navellier

Well, Louis Navellier is nothing if not consistent — his ads always promise that a stock with recent huge earnings surprises is going to repeat, grow, and continue to delight investors. That’s the joy of being a trend follower — when you get it right. Of course, when you get it wrong with these fast-growth [...]

“Is This Tiny Stock the Next Exxon — Or the Next Budweiser?”

I hope that headline doesn’t get read as an either/or — because the third “or” should probably be “Or the next pink sheet stock whose certificates are fit only to line a birdcage.” Not that this company doesn’t have something going for it, or the possibility of success someday — just wanted to make sure [...]

“The ONLY Publicly-Traded Wind Developer That Actually Makes You Money When The Price Of Oil Goes Up!”

Today we’re looking at a nice big burst of hot air (and yes, that title is, it seems to me, a load of hooey) from the folks at Green Chip Stocks — all in the interest of getting you a hot idea in wind energy, and, of course, driving your windlust to the point that [...]

“Why This Stock Could Jump 166%” Penny Stock Fortunes

Today’s teaser ad is for a stock in a sector that many Gumshoe readers are interested in: Water. The logic, after all, is always impeccable for water-related stocks: There will never be a substitute for water, there are few living things that can survive without it, and the global population is not getting any smaller. [...]

Virtual ATM: Punch in the “P.I.N.#” UNY85 and Withdraw $750 Instantly

I’ve gotten a lot of questions about this latest ad for Lee Lowell’s new Instant Money Trader — he tells us that this is the “Safest Income Strategy on Earth,” and that it’s the “only strategy that pays you first — without you having to buy anything or pay out any cash whatsoever.” Lowell is [...]
