Many of you have emailed me about this one, and a few have ventured solutions in email or in the forums or comments on previous articles (most of you are right, of course). This is a teaser from Agora’s Energy and Scarcity Investor edited by Byron King, which I don’t think I’ve looked at before [...]
There have been two major newsletter publishers pushing hard for oil companies that are working in the Bakken field in Wyoming/North Dakota/Canada, with some speculating that the recoverable oil will exceed that remianing in Saudi Arabia’s largest oil field. Whether or not that’s true, I don’t know. There are certainly a wide range of estimates [...]
Here’s one that got the attention of many of my readers: it’s a microcap oil play, one that our advertiser believes will send shares from 15 cents to (possibly) $5 a share. They apparently have leases in Brazil in some prime oil territory. Some excerpts from the ad: “When you sign on to Penny Oil [...]
OK, here’s one that’s causing a massive wave of Gumshoe email — I guess the Stansberry & Associates email servers are heating up again now that oil looks to be solidly above $100. This one is for an oil sands play, as you might imagine, but (if you read through the pages and pages of [...]
As I’ve noted a few times before, whenever folks start getting worried about a monster bear market or a recession, teasers for investments that have the ring of safety, and particularly including “income” investments, start coming out of the woodwork. This is one from a service I haven’t looked at before, the Financial
Certainly you don’t need me to tell you that energy stocks of all kinds are hot investments, and have been for a couple years. After all, a couple excitable traders even pushed oil up to $100 a barrel for a few minutes today, so I’m sure we can write tomorrow’s headlines right now. You’ll even [...]
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 [...]
You probably won’t find this shocking, but the Gumshoe is, at heart, a lazy man. So I’m skipping 3 and 4 while I work on them a little more, since they’re gumming up my brain cells, and moving on to the other “easy” teaser from the “secret societies” ad from Stansberry and Associates. This one [...]
This one came in last week as an ad for Chris Mayer’s Special Situations Newsletter … he also writes the Capital and Crisis newsletter, and this is certainly a trend, hot newsletter editors creating “more exclusive” newsletters with higher prices that address smaller companies or unusual opportunities. I imagine the Capital and Crisis subscribers are [...]
This one comes to us from Stansberry & Associates, as so many of them do, and is an ad for The Oil Report from Matt Badiali ($99 a year, last time I checked). He’s got a great opening, as usual: “Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil [...]
This is a quickie as I close out Friday evening for the fabulous Gumshoe readers — but I just got an email from Adam Lass at WaveStrength Options Weekly (with help from Bryan Bottarelli) that promises the “last sane oil play of the summer,” an option trade that will make money if there are (aren’t [...]
This teaser, for the “OIL COMPANY THAT HAS OUTPERFORMED EXXON BY 170% IN THE PAST YEAR,” comes from Orbus Investor’s Sam Hopkins. Orbus Investor is a global investing newsletter that we’ve seen before — they told that that “Cash is Dead” and teased us about Verifone back at the end of March (unchanged so far). [...]
This ad comes to us from Andrew Mickey at Breakaway Investor, who we’ve heard from a few times before. The solution was suggested by a few readers, the first of whom was Randy Last-name-withheld-to protect-the-innocent, and one of them, one of the Stock Gumshoe Irregulars who wishes to remain anonymous (we’ll call him Streetsifter … [...]
The Motley Fool has an investment newsletter called Global Gains, by Bill Mann, that offers up international investment advice for $199 a year, and they recently have been advertising the service by teasing up three different small cap companies, what they call their “Hidden Advantage Stocks.” (And actually, I seem to remember them advertising this [...]
August 11 update: Just a note that this stock, along with Chris DeHaemer’s other resource play Rusina Mining, has taken a significant hit of late. The hit this company is taking is probably almost entirely related to the current debate in the Somali government about setting up a new government oil company and new centralized [...]
This one on the so-called American Oil Pension (A.O.P) has been making the rounds quite a bit lately, with lots of different variations over the past couple weeks — it’s from Stansberry & Associates and advertises their “Oil Report,” which is yet another subscription newsletter. It also gave me a headache for a while, but [...]
That’s the most intriguing part of this latest ad I had sent in by a reader – “The World’s Best Oil Stock is Selling for 30 Cents on the Dollar!” The ad comes to us courtesy of Trend Advisor, a newsletter service that, you guessed it, would like you to sign up for a subscription [...]
Here’s another fun investment advisory teaser stock that’s been making the rounds of my email box — I first saw it several months ago, and the promise has not yet come to fruition (surprise!), but it’s still an interesting idea and an interesting company. The promise is lurid, as usual — comparing this company’s potential [...]
