The 801(k) teaser letter for Stansberry and Associates’ 12% Letter was among the most hugely successful email campaigns out there — at least, if the interest of my readers is any indication. That ad generated more questions than any other for a period of about a year … … but that was back in 2007 [...]
Real Wealth Report by Larry Edelson.I just finished watching a video by Larry Edelson. He is selling a newsletter called the “Real Wealth Report”. He claims that the US and China are working together to devalue the dollar so the US doesn’t have to go bankrupt. He wants us to shift or investments to natural resources and food because that [...]
Agora’s 5 Minute ForecastAny feedback on the 5 Minute Forecast? It’s an Agora publication, founder and publisher with the Dickensian name of Addison Wiggin, this newletter editor Dave Gonigam. I like its format, relative conciseness (compared, for example, to any Stansberry publication) and its general tendency to stay on point rather than meander too far into personal musings. [...]
The gang from Insiders Strategy Group, (which used to be called Taipan), are pushing folks to sign up for a subscription to Unconventional Wealth, (which used to be called Safe Haven Investor), and as part of that push they’re teasing us that they’ve identified a secret that they refer to as “Form 590″ that will [...]

More “Contrarian Bonanza” picks, you ask? Well of course! There are several new teaser ads stacking up in the Thinkolator’s inbox, but before we get to those … let’s close the book on the “contrarian bonanza” picks from the Weiss folks as they tease their Million-Dollar Contrarian Portfolio. There are three left of the seven [...]
2012 where will the best opportunities to make money this year be?2012 where will the best opportunities to make money this year be? I keep hearing cloud will be the place, I hear the Facebook IPO will be the biggest event for the markets in our lifetime, possibly ever. What I am seeking is more of a macro view of where the market is heading and [...]
I haven’t written much about the Palm Beach Letter, but Tom Dyson and Michael Masterson/Mark Ford have been given free reign to pitch their newsletter to most of the Agora and Stansberry mailing lists, it appears, so we sure see a lot of their ads. And lots of folks have been asking about this one, [...]
Most of the time I write about the investment newsletter business — the pundits who sell their expertise, the copywriters who make the mundane seem otherworldly, and the outrageous promises and teases that the publishers use to convince us to subscribe to newsletters that proffer investment research and stock tips. But it’s worth noting that [...]
We’re preparing to shut down Gumshoe HQ for a week or so — one vestige of my former life in academia is a strong belief that no one should work between Christmas and New Year’s Day, so we will not be publishing anything new until next year (don’t worry, we’ll still keep an eye on [...]
We have a charming little tradition here at Stock Gumshoe of picking out the stinkiest stock to have been teased over the past year, and calling it our “Turkey of the Year” come Thanksgiving time. It’s not particularly fair — certainly not to turkeys everywhere, and probably not to the newsletter folks who use breathless, [...]
Arora Report ZYX Change Method and alertsDoes anyone have experience with Nigam Arora’s ZYX Change method and alerts, asset allocation model or portfolio alignment service. The returns look high for both the stock picks and allocated model. Does the method work?
I LOVE this ad. Not just because it’s fun to read, full of hyperbole, and fills our head with dreams of huge investment returns — they all do that. No, I love it because it’s great to see the big newsletter publishers answering each others’ challenges — you’ve certainly seen and heard Porter Stansberry’s “End [...]

The Elevation GroupAnybody ever hear of ”The Elevation Group”, with Mike Dillard? I just watched a 1 hour video and have 96 hours to sign up for a nice discount on a year subscription at $597. That’s still a lot of money for a ham and egger like me. I did a search on the internet on [...]

date certain for stock market crash caused by collapse of the US dollar?Travis, Did the government of Russia just move the start of their next fiscal year to April 12, 2012 ? Is this to coordinate with the Chinese government that starts its fiscal year on April 12 ? Is it commonly known that the Chinese officials are meeting with other countries’ and discussing dumping the US [...]

Over the last several months we’ve seen several ads touting Steve Sjuggerud’s True Wealth Systems, which is apparently a big quantitative screening “supercomputer” that Steve subcontracted to some computer programmers — and which is supposed to identify investing anomalies that he can then write about to his subscribers, who then will profit. And I can’t [...]
