Jimmy Mengel has pitched pot stocks several times before, but now he’s upped the ante and is launching a marijuana-only newsletter service called The Marijuana Manifesto… which is probably as good a sign of a market top as we could hope for, but we’ll see. In launching this service, which he’s selling for about $2,000 […]

The number of questions about this one is going off the charts, so I’ll look into it for you — even though it’s related to not one but two bubblicious sectors that are designed for the manipulation of investors, so I might get a little grumpy. Bear with me. Here’s a little tantalizer from the […]
Today’s article is a lightly updated revision of one that appeared on November 3, 2016, when an earlier “pre-election” version of the same ad was running. The hints about individual stocks are the same in the ad today, as is much of the rest of the language, though back then it was an urgent “pre-election” […]
Before you get sucked into reading more of my blather, take a moment and read the Wall Street Journal if you’ve got a copy nearby or an online subscription — not the whole thing, but read Christopher Mims’ column The World Isn’t as Bad as Your Wired Brain Tells You. It’s an unusually brief and […]
This article was originally published on January 11, but the Casey folks are promoting these same five stocks quite similarly with the bait of their “Become a Marijuana Millionaire in 2018” report, focusing on the impending Canadian legalization this summer, so we’re re-posting our January article here to answer some reader questions. The five stocks […]
Many Gumshoe readers wanted me to follow up on yesterday’s marijuana article right away, identifying the other two stocks hinted at in the ads for Nick Giambruno’s Crisis Investing… and we aim to please, so let’s jump right into it. If you missed part one, you can check that out here — the overriding argument […]
This one’s not exactly a tightly-controlled secret (though the ad makes it sound like one), but we’ll put the Thinkolator on the case anyway… we’ve gotten lots of questions about the latest marijuana pitch from Jimmy Mengel, who is advertising subscriptions to his Marijuana Manifesto service ($1,999/year) — seems that plenty of people want to […]
This is the headline that so many readers have been asking about in recent weeks… “URGENT: If you missed America’s ‘pot stock mania,’ here’s your second chance to become a marijuana millionaire. This 58¢ pot stock is set to soar on October 31, 2017, when Canada votes to legalize marijuana for the entire country.” That’s […]
The allure of income is overwhelming, and one thing that many small or novice investors have in common is the certitude with which they believe that there’s a “secret” income source out there… a way to just “tap in” to the money that institutional investors are making. That’s why these kinds of “payday” and “weekly […]
Marijuana stocks have been falling, and yet James Altucher is pitching his Altucher’s Investment Network newsletter ($49/yr) with the promise that he’s found the only one of these stocks you’ll ever need… and it’s all because of “a massive state-of-the-art greenhouse… that’s about to revolutionize the marijuana market as we know it.” So what’s he […]
Matt Badiali pitching: ” Three Pot Stocks Surging 1,000% in the Months Ahead (and Two to Avoid Like the Plague”Does anyone know the three to surge and two to avoid pot stocks from the Matt Badiali report ”Three Pot Stocks Surging 1,000% in the Months Ahead (and Two to Avoid Like the Plague” ? Grtx Zeflik
Everyone loves marijuana stocks, perhaps even more than everyone loved bitcoin stocks a year and a half ago, and that fascination has been longer-lasting than I would have guessed… fed not only by the reminder of those spikes in penny pot stocks in the first few years of state legalization, then these first couple quarters […]
Michael Robinsons teaser has 3 under the radar pot stocks. Number 1 is a vegetable grower with 10.5 million sq. ft. of green house. I’m guessing this is village farms international. #2 is world wide domination of the medical marijuana market. I’m guessing Canopy Growth. #3 is a back door pot play. I’m guessing cannabix […]
This week I’ve got a little teaser decipherization for you to get us started, and we’ve also got a new piece from Dr. KSS… and I’ve got some updated thoughts on a few other stocks at the end of today’s piece. The teaser? Well, it’s been circulating for a few weeks now, and it caught […]
The “buy the next marijuana IPO” pitches are fast and furious these days, promising massive short-term gains as new companies go public (mostly in Canada) and try to capture the lightning in a bottle that generated bubblicious returns for speculators in past pot stock spikes (some of which have turned into hugely profitable — if […]
Chris Wood at RiskHedge is selling one of his higher-end newsletters, Project 5X ($2,497 for the first year, 30-day refund period), by teasing that he will reveal “My #1 Play of the Psychedelic Medicine Revolution”… largely because, like many pundits, he believes that psychedelic drugs might follow the path worn by marijuana over the past […]
Premium Income Alert newsletter by Bill Poulos says “Pot Stocks 2.0” is the best way to invest in these stocks including one that is currently 0.34 Anyone have any ideas which stocks are about to take off very soon?
Hello, Gumshoe friends! I’ve been off the grid for a little while, but it’s good to be back — and it’s nice to see the pile of hot, steaming teaser pitches that have larded up my inbox over the past couple weeks. So… which one to look at first? I’ve had a lot of requests […]
And as a result, I have no doubt they’ll be over 1 million customers well before the year is out. As the company CEO says, it’s on the path to becoming “the largest U.S. cannabis company in the world’s largest cannabis market.” And as one prominent media outlet put it, it will soon be “the […]
What have we learned about teaser ads over the past decade or so? A lot, I hope, but two lessons stand out: First, dates in teaser ads are often made up and don’t really represent meaningful “catalyst” events, they’re just a way to make you feel rushed and get you to pull out your credit […]
There was a bit of bad news for the marijuana sector this week, as the Senate opted not to include some hoped-for marijuana banking liberalization in the defense bill. Such a law could have given the pot companies more access to conventional banks, and marijuana investors hoped that this further federal “legalization” move for the […]

The latest pitch from Cannabis Venture Syndicate is actually dated January 2021, but I haven’t gotten around to covering it yet… and questions keep rolling in, and it’s for a private share offering so the price wouldn’t have changed in the interim, so things ought to still be relatively “fresh” on that front. And today, […]
Earnings season tends to start a little slow here at Stock Gumshoe, since I don’t own many of the stocks who report early — we had Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) last week and cell tower REIT Crown Castle (CCI) yesterday, but things will heat up in a big way next week, when I’ll have about a […]
And in 2020… we could see an onslaught of new wealth-building opportunities that would potentially dwarf any that came before them. Bigger than the dot-com boom Bigger than the Bitcoin boom of 2017 Bigger than pot stocks There’s a perfect storm being created by some of the biggest tech titans in the world… with each […]
Let’s start with a reminder this week that will lead me into a bit of blatheration (feel free to skip ahead to the first ****, this might veer into sanctimonious lecturing): Don’t double down with your retirement money. Taking extra investing risks might be appropriate for some folks who don’t have enough exposure to equities […]
I was hoping Travis (or a subscriber!) would cover this one and tell us what the 3 marijuana stocks are: https://media.profitconfidential.com/products/21stCenturyTechnologyProfits/Landing/index_05012017.php?dept=PC&sb=EBLAST1118&sdate=01052020&coffer=1&title=1 1. Marijuana Stock #1 In just six years, this company has built the top-selling line of hemp-based CBD oil products. Through a network of over 2,200 retail locations in the U.S., this company sells […]
Heydy ho, Gumshoe friends… today I’m going to go a little over my allotted time, this is the last Friday File for 2019 so I’m going to throw in a teaser solution for you first, then go over some updates and changes and news items from the Real Money Portfolio… ready? The teaser that some […]
Jimmy Mengel is out with a new marijuana stock ad for us, teasing the “next king” of the sector as he looks for more winners… and, of course, he’d like you to subscribe to his newsletter to learn what this next winner might be (actually, he’s pitching this as “you buy my $99 report, nonrefundable, […]
It’s “goodwill toward all” season, right? So now is the time to get ready to be nice to yourself. I don’t know whether this trade war will end, or if impeachment will lead to something bigger, or whether President Trump will find a way to goose the stock market again next year to boost his […]
A quickie for you today, since a few folks have asked… One of the seemingly 10,000 Banyan Hill newsletters is being teased today, and the bait they’re dangling is that Jeff Yastine is about to recommend a stock to his subscribers on Wednesday… which is tomorrow, so we’ll be brief so you can have some […]
Ever since I started Stock Gumshoe as a little “nights and weekends” project back in the Spring of 2007, we’ve made an effort to “give back” in some substantial way — we’ve given to at least a dozen different charities over the years, and every year we’ve set a new record for how much we […]
Turn down the football game and bring out the pies, it’s that time again! Stock Gumshoe is mostly closed down for the holiday week, but we do have to continue our annual tradition of calling out our “Turkey of the Year” … so take a pause from arguing with your family and join us, won’t […]
Not a lot of buying and selling going on this week, as the market continues to seem to be reacting only to the “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” sentiment over a possible Chinese trade deal, but I did find one stock to buy… and caught up on a few others that have been catching my […]
The folks at RiskHedge are out with a new IPO-focused newsletter called IPO Insider ($2,997/yr is the promoted price), aiming to find “Hidden IPOs for Extreme Wealth” using Justin Spittler’s “SONAR” system for identifying the best IPO opportunities. Spittler used to write for a newsletter or two for Doug Casey’s firm, we’ve covered a few […]
Earnings season is clobbering me with news once again this week, so there’s a lot to share… I’ll start with the actual transactions I made today, and move on to look at a dozen other stocks I own or am watching… buckle up! We’ll start with the one that probably most of you can’t easily […]
What have we learned about teaser ads over the past decade or so? A lot, I hope, but two lessons stand out: First, dates in teaser ads are often made up and don’t really represent meaningful “catalyst” events, they’re just a way to make you feel rushed and get you to pull out your credit […]
The pbl is touting the number 1 pot stock. What is it?
Innovative Industrial Properties (IIPR) hit a stop loss yesterday thanks to a sector-wide collapse of marijuana stocks. The big news that hits IIPR directly this week was that MedMen dropped its plan to buy PharmaCann, which is IIPR’s biggest tenant, so I did take the somewhat cautious step of buying a few protective puts just […]
The competition for your brokerage account has gotten fierce again, which is great news for investors. There’s no longer any reason to pay brokerage commissions for buying or selling stock… which makes it so much easier for small individual shareholders to be slow and gradual in their portfolio-building, and I think that’s great — don’t […]
