Huh? Are the Canadian Maple Leaf silver coins going to suddenly become twice as valuable as the American Eagle silver coins? No, don’t worry, it’s not that simple and silver is still fungible, an ounce is an ounce is an ounce (well, a troy ounce, anyway). So what’s the idea of “Canadian silver” being somehow [...]
Matt Badiali edits the S&A Resource Report, which is an “entry level” (ie, less than $100 a year) newsletter that’s currently “on sale” for $39, and his latest pitch for new members has caught the attention of many of the folks in Gumshoe Nation. He’s pitching something he calls “Secret Gold Societies” … and if [...]
I wrote recently about the teaser for Matt Badiali’s S&A Resource Report that pitched “the end of Silver” as the world runs out of that metal and prices are forecast (by him, at least) to skyrocket. But in that same teaser ad there was a brief hint about Badiali’s Yukon gold stocks, and so readers [...]
There’s something about using the atomic number for an element that makes you feel extra smart and exclusive, isn’t there? Or at least, that’s what I’m forced to conclude from the fact that most of the newsletter jockeys appear to delight in intriguing and mysterious references to the “fortune making” fourth element or the “battle [...]
If you’ve been a citizen of Gumshoe Nation for more than a year or so, this latest teaser from Matt Badiali for his S&A Resource Report might sound a bit familiar, it’s all about buying Chinese gold miners because of China’s voracious appetite for gold – and because these particular miners have the state’s backing. [...]
Today it’s finally time to get around to what has probably been the most-requested teaser ad of the last few weeks — if you haven’t seen it, it comes in under several different headlines all comparing this “Mainz” income stream to the thousands raked in by Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and teases us that we [...]
Now this is a pitch: “Everyone knows gold is a great investment. Since 2000, it’s gone from $275 to $1,250 an ounce. “But what if I told you there’s a special type of investment out there that’s not only beaten gold over the past decade but has practically destroyed every asset class on the market [...]
Lots of questions rolling in from the Gumshoe faithful about this ad today — it’s a teaser from Matt Badiali and his S&A Resource Report, and it’s all about the massive oil shale resources in China, and how to profit from them. Here’s how the pitch begins: “World’s Largest Oil Shale Field Discovered… in China? [...]
I can only go so long without writing about another gold teaser — so my deepest apologies if you’re just plain sick of the yellow shiny stuff. While I was traveling last week my mailbox filled up with questions about the “Golden Triangle” teaser, which is all about some of the small gold miners who [...]
Matt Badiali runs the S&A Resource Report newsletter, which recommends mostly energy and commodity stocks. The teases he uses to promote his newsletter are usually pretty compelling and hyperbolic, and from what we’ve heard at Stock Gumshoe Reviews his letter is one of the favorites in the commodity space, so I always like to take [...]
There were any number of teasers I could have chosen to get back in the swing of things after vacation, but this one from Matt Badiali was forwarded to me more than any other over the last week or so, and it seemed a reasonable place to start. Like so many of the great teaser [...]
I was on track to write something else this morning, but the deluge of emails and the mysterious name drew my attention to the “Illinois Project” teaser … think what you like about Stansberry & Associates, but they’ve certainly got some of the more creative copywriters churning out their tasty treats for the Gumshoe. So [...]
This article was originally published on the members-only Irregulars site on July 31, 2009, it is being reproduced here but has not been updated or significantly revised. Now that Matt Badiali’s S&A Oil Report has renamed itself the S&A Resource Report, it shouldn’t be any surprise that he’s looking not just at the energy companies [...]
