On a day when the Carlyle Group (CG) is making headlines for their IPO, which was generally received with a “meh” by Wall Street (priced slightly below the range, no pop on the IPO), why not take a look at a different private equity-type stock that’s apparently paying a much higher dividend? Or at least, [...]
Now that Apple is the largest public company in the world, and the most popular stock, the eagerness with which newsletter guys tout “secret” Apple suppliers is ramping up still more … impressive in itself, since the basic “buy Apple suppliers” pitch has been around and making money for subscription-sellers ever since Synaptics was pitched [...]
Real money $100,000 portfolio, mostly focused on “steady and reliable” ideas that generate income through dividends.
This ad is not exactly brand new, but folks have been sending in queries about it for a few weeks, and pretty steadily, so I thought I’d try to get some answers out for you. The pitch is from Ian Wyatt, who’s trying to sell his Top Stock Insights newsletter by throwing in a “special [...]
Energy focused stock advisory. Defunct.
Sometimes we have a tendency to forget that the reason to own something is almost always to earn money on your investment — and that’s where dividends come in. Movements in stock prices and capital gains depend on the vagaries of the market, with stocks sometimes priced at 10 times earnings and sometimes at 30X [...]
Ian Wyatt has been pitching the idea that you can “front run” Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway by buying stocks that he calls the “Warren Buffett Retirement Plan” — he’s done this before, but I think the stocks he’s teasing have changed this time around. There are three stock ideas hinted at in this teaser, [...]
This note is very different from what I would write were it entitled, “Front-Running Buffett with David Sokol” — but since he has ended up in the SEC’s crosshairs, and been thrown under the bus by Warren since he made the ridiculously foolish choice to buy shares in a stock he was scouting out as [...]
It’s shaping up to be Ian Wyatt week here at Stock Gumshoe — yesterday I took a look at a veiled hint of a Polish natural gas stock, and today we’re looking at a tease that looks like it may have started a couple months back but has been recently re-invigorated (and I haven’t researched [...]
Today’s tease is from Ian Wyatt, who has his name on so many newsletters that I don’t know how he finds time to sleep, let alone watch Dancing with the Stars like any good red-blooded American (kidding! if there’s one thing I don’t want to see on TV, it’s reality). The letter he’s pitching now [...]
Today’s tease hits home for most savers — the return you get for your money in the bank stinks, and most savings accounts and similarly “safe” savings vehicles yield don’t have interest yields that are even high enough to keep up with inflation. So the promise of a “savings account” that yields 8.2% is obviously [...]
Dividends + Gold = Pretty much 99% of the questions I get from readers in any given day, so the headline of this teaser about getting a “8.4% Dividend From a Unique American Gold Investment” from Ian Wyatt for his Small Cap Investor Pro caught my eye: high dividends and gold? Where do I sign [...]
Well, if the last ten years have taught us nothing else, we should have learned that this has been a spectacular time to promise that your investments are like Warren Buffett’s, or to sell folks on the idea of the “next” Berkshire Hathaway or Oracle of Omaha. I’ve written about probably dozens of stocks that [...]
This teaser came to my attention a couple days ago, it’s from Ian Wyatt for his Energy World Profits newsletter, which as far as I can tell is new — it at least hasn’t been covered in this space before. It’s a newsletter that he edits with Gregor Mcdonald, who apparently is an “energy economist,” [...]
That’s a nice promise, eh? A 10% dividend sounds just lovely right now … not that there aren’t a lot of 10% yielders around, of course, but perhaps this one is special? That’s what Ian Wyatt thinks, at least — he runs SmallCapInvestor PRO, and he’s telling us to look for small cap companies that [...]
“The Last Undiscovered Middle East Oil Field. Right now, there’s just one publicly traded company seriously looking for oil in this country. Just one. But this company has the exploration rights to 219,000 potentially oil-rich acres. And it just applied for the rights to another 245,000 acres. It could be nothing. The unique geology that produced billions of dollars of oil wealth in Saudi Arabia, Iran or Kuwait might simply stop at the borders of those countries… Or it might not.”
As another week of panic, fear, high oil prices, and skyrocketing food prices begins, let’s see if we can discover one of the folks likely to profit from the world’s hunger. Wow, that sounds much worse than I meant. OK, so we’re on the hunt for a fertilizer profiteer. Sorry. Just kidding! What we want [...]
This stock teaser comes in from Ian Wyatt’s Growth Report newsletter, which I don’t think I’ve written about before. But the stock? That I have written about before. Those of you who’ve been around GumshoeLand for a little while might remember a teaser from Matt Badiali on the “Oil Sands Story 60 Minutes Missed” — [...]
