He usually showed up on Hulbert's list as one of the best performers in bull markets... but also gave back a huge amount of that by being one of the worst performers in bear markets.[...]

Looks like Marin is again out with a tease about his "Project Gold Rush" -- he doesn't drop as many clues this time around, but the few he does give are the same as they were a year ago... and the "special report" still has the same title, so I would imagi[...]

Thanks Paul, we love you, too!Let us know what you think about those new letters...[...]

They followed the specific portfolios of a group of newsletters for about 20 years, as I recall, maybe a bit longer, and provided some really valuable data from that subset, but they essentially shut down that project about ten years ago. Not sure if it [...]

Yep, your comment went through -- that just meant it was waiting for moderation.We love receiving real-world feedback about newsletters, either directly from our readers or as postings on [...]

Thanks for the positive slant on my work, but yes -- for those who don't know, gum shoes, which is what they called rubber-soled shoes in the 19th century, when they were rare and almost all shoes had leather soles, were quiet and gave you an advantage whe[...]

The price of bitcoin has gone up in the period after the previous halvings... but we should be careful about extrapolating a lesson from something that has only happened a few times. The price of bitcoin has gone up so dramatically over that per[...]

The drop in the preferreds last year was primarily driven by interest rates, I expect.[...]

Good ones to think about, thanks -- there's a whole world of adjustable preferreds that reset their rates, which, as you know, could be good or bad over the next few years. I like this idea but haven't looked at these specific issues, probably mostly bec[...]

I'm not the guy to talk to about altcoins or alternative exchanges -- I pretty much stick with Bitcoin and Ethereum, and just use Coinbase. Lots of other folks here are way more into crypto than I am, so perhaps they'll have suggestions.[...]

I expect that's the general "AI bubble might be bursting" panic that washed through the market today because SMCI didn't pre-release their earnings. Most "AI plays" down similarly today.[...]

That ad has been running, with some variation, for a long time -- the primary stock he teases for these "UFO" weapons has always been Leidos, which has a division working on hypersonic weapons (though is primarily a tech contractor for the US government), [...]

Bitcoin has probably surged this year in part because of the "halving", plus the new ETFs, so it's an open question how the price will react to the actual event.It's not really "splitting," to be clear -- the halving means that the reward for mining is [...]

It has really become more of a quarterly to 2-year ladder these days. It's fairly simple, just requires some activity once a quarter -- I started out by buying roughly equal values of three month, six month, nine month, 1-year and 2-year bills and notes, [...]

That's still Exscientia (EXAI), which Oxford Club has been pitching for more than six months -- covered here: https://www.stockgumshoe.com/reviews/oxford-club/answers-kansas-welder-story-leads-to-company-alex-green-believes-will-become-the-most-important-a[...]

That's a midstream MLP (pipelines, storage and processing/refining gas), not an energy producer.[...]

I don't think I've ever analyzed either of those.[...]

It certainly seems to go in big cycles, which I guess is why several newsletters are out now touting the opportunity that might be present in all these beaten-down biotechs that raised a ton of money in 2020 or 2021 -- still quite a few that have way more [...]

Good feedback, thanks![...]

Interesting, I dabbled in that one many years ago as well, but couldn't see much potential for growing the business so I eventually sold.[...]
