I don’t believe I’ve ever written about Dudley Baker and his Precious Metals Warrants subscription service, but several folks sent in his latest pitch for subscribers, and it has exactly the kind of teaser promise that we love to unravel, so I thought I’d have a look for you. Baker has been a warrants/options/futures trader [...]
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 [...]
There are going to be a few folks who are frustrated with the navigator of the good ship Gumshoe today, because we’re again looking at an Australian newsletter teaser — and I’m guessing the stock will be tough to trade for US investors, if our past reveals of Diggers and Drillers picks are any indication. [...]
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 [...]
Untold millions of readers (OK, not millions — in the tradition of the folks we write about every day, we’ll use quotes that enable us to make stuff up … so, untold “millions”) have been asking us about the “long-lost” treasure maps that are chatted up in Sean Broderick’s latest teaser for his Red-Hot Global [...]
Since there was such a spirited discussion following our look at the “treasure map” of hoarders who can sell you bags of “treasure”, this latest teaser from Nicholas Vardy also caught my eye. Why? Well, because that “treasure map” bit was all about junk silver (old circulating silver currency), and the discussion was largely of [...]
How can you find sacks of treasure located around 776 cities around the country? That’s the pitch from Retirement Millionaire from Stansberry & Associates — the ad, which is one of those good ol’ video ads that doesn’t happen to link to a text version, even includes a “treasure map” of those cities around the [...]
If you’ve been treading the boards at the good ol’ Gumshoe Theater of Oddities for more than a few months, this teaser for silver may sound familiar to you: “How To Buy U.S. Government Created Silver For $2.08″ The tease is an attempt to get you to sign up for Dr. David Eifrig’s Retirement Millionaire [...]
I originally wrote about “Silver Shots” as teased by Zachary Scheidt for his Velocity Trader about a year and a half ago, but much has changed over that time and an extremely similar ad is running right now, so I thought I should give it another look. Here’s how the teaser sounds: “Silver Hits Critical [...]
That headline sits atop a teaser ad that I started receiving on Tuesday this week from Tim Fields for his Untapped Wealth newsletter. Now, I should warn you up front that this newsletter has recommended some real doozies in the past, like that silly “forever battery,” and they’ve gotten involved in some stock promotion that [...]
“The World’s Largest Silver Resource Base Has Now Become Attractively Priced” So goes the headline for Dr. Stephen Leeb’s new teaser ad — and he tells us that we should … “Buy now for stunning potential growth!” It’s no surprise that Leeb is a commodity booster — he got a lot of attention for peak [...]
I looked at the crafty FR Y-9C teaser from Peter Krauth a couple weeks ago, when he was telling us that the big investment banks, particularly Goldman Sachs, were effectively manipulating the commodities markets. He teased an oil stock most aggressively in that ad (you can see that article here, along with the basics of [...]
On this bright and sunny Spring day our thoughts turn … to Mark Skousen. He’s selling subscriptions to his Forecasts & Strategies newsletter, and his pitch is that he predicted the 1980s boom, and warned investors that corporate profits were peaking in early 2007 … and that he’s got the best ideas for you to [...]
Today’s holiday look is at a silver mining company with a mother lode strike in China … this time, the tease is from the Sound Profits newsletter by the Investors Daily Edge folks, and they would, of course, be delighted to have you subscribe to their newsletter to find out who this “Silver Striker” company [...]
We haven’t taken a gander at any silver stocks in a while now, but the metal’s price is still holding up pretty well after a nice move of 50% or so from the summer lows, and the “poor man’s gold” is getting plenty of attention as an inflation hedge, an industrial metal, and a possible [...]
I usually reserve my new articles for the Irregulars on Fridays and publish them in the Friday File — and I’ll be doing that, too, when I do my more detailed writeup today. But I’ve had a bunch of folks ask me about this silver-buying program from Eric Roseman at The Sovereign Society, so I [...]
Luke Burgess, who I don’t believe I’ve written about in the past couple years, is pitching his Hard Money Millionaire advisory by saying he’s found the next Silver Standard Resources (SSRI). He starts out by essentially saying that he’s following the big money — he noticed which institutions were heavily invested in SSRI, which saw [...]
This ad sounds a little bit like a very popular one we looked at a few months back — then, it was for $1 “Silver Shots”, and it was a teaser for a leveraged derivative trade on silver futures (or, in plainer speak, it was for long-term call options on the SLV ETF). If you [...]
Today’s look is at a stock that I actually haven’t seen teased very heavily, and I haven’t received the ads directly yet, but I have gotten dozens of questions from readers about it … so here goes. It looks like the teaser must have been in the S&A Digest, which is the “free” weekly report [...]
Well, the gold price seems to be recovering slightly this morning after a few days of backtracking once it got close to the $1,000 level again … so it’s time to look at another gold ad, no? Today’s feature is an ad for the Big Gold service from Casey Research, edited by Jeff Clark (there [...]
