Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) are the flavor of the year on Wall Street, following big high-profile SPAC-fueled IPOs like DraftKings (DKNG) and Virgin Galactic (SPCE), and we’re seeing a bunch of newsletters and financial pundits try to leverage that popularity… the latest is Enrique Abeyta, who is launching a SPAC-focused newsletter on Thursday for […]

James Altucher took a little break from his self-chosen role as “most overmarketed cryptocurrency pundit on earth” to promote his publisher’s Microcap X Advisory recently, talking up the possibility that a particular little biotech stock could surge 54,000% because of expected FDA approval on February 17. So… let’s dig into it, shall we? The ad […]
That’s the promise of the “Newsmax Undercover Report” from Bill Spetrino’s Dividend Machine newsletter, which I don’t think I’ve looked at before. Here’s how the pitch begins: “While the Government Blows Your Money on $326 Pizzas . . . $3.9 Million Desk Rearrangements . . . and Billion-Dollar Moats . . . “An Inner Circle […]
Several folks have been writing in with questions about Stansberry’s “Dirty Thirty” promotion for his Big Trade newsletter ($3,000 for three years, no refunds), so that’s where we’re pointing the Thinkolator today. The pitch is not a new one — Porter Stansberry preannounced his “Dirty Thirty” idea last Fall and started selling subscriptions around November, […]
The Fool’s Investor Digest over the weekend included a little tease about one of their favorite small growth stocks, so I thought we’d dig into that for you on this lovely July Monday. The pitch is for their Next-Gen Supercycle service, which is one of the many premium-priced, no refunds upgrade services ($1,999/yr) that the […]
Nick Hodge is peddling subscriptions to his Early Advantage (currently $1,299/year, 30-day refund period promised) using the pitch that one tiny company has the patents on a key thin film sensor technology that will become the “barcode of the future” and “revolutionize Amazon’s supply chain.” So what is it? Let’s check out the details… Hodge […]
A different version of this article was originally published on September 25, 2019. The ad in question is still running, this time with a new “key date” of February 24 (it was December 10) and a different price ($7 from $5, to match the move up in the stock), but the main focus is the […]
This newsletter has been closed.
Every year we resolve to do better, right? That’s the human condition — we are frail, weak, and conflicted… we are busy, irritable, and unfocused… and we want to do better. It’s no different for your friends here at Stock Gumshoe… so today, as we recover from the Ides of March, I offer up some […]
It supposedly will revolutionize the way electricity is developed for entire cities.
This article was originally posted on June 18, but we’re seeing more questions about this Keith Kohl “AI Master Key” promo again this week, so we’re re-posting our analysis and solution to help answer those questions. The ad is undated, but does not seem to have been updated since June, and what follows is also […]
How do we get there? >>>—Water, Air, Earth, Fire——-> #Inspired by Dad, Arch1, Griffin, HendrixNuzzles, #ZKSS, Robert Friedland, Matt Bohlsen o ”LOVE is all that matters.

Hello Happened to see the presentation ”One Trade” from Michael Carr on BanyanHill. You can see this at: https://banyanhill.com/one-trade/ Summary: Mr. Carr is going to share one-trade a month that is going to guarantee to go 2X. The cost of annual membership is $1500. My read: Few examples shows doubling within a few-days, but it […]
[Ed. Note: Dr. KSS writes for the Irregulars about medicine and biotech stocks. He chooses his own topics, and his words and opinions are his own.] Careful analysis of Ebola sequences in infected Africans confirms this: the entire present Ebola outbreak emerged as a consequence of one boy in Meliandoua, in eastern Guinea, eating a […]
Hi Guys, Anyone here is subscribed to SeekingAlpha PRO? Is it useful and worth the pennies? Plus who knows the best place to look for investment advice for the Asian market (China mainland, HongKong, Singapore, etc..)? Thanks a lot! Ruben
Via Stansberry, James Altucher is teasing a $2500 investment letter touting substantial gain saying he is connected to the early phase investors. Thoughts?
Today I’ll start by stating the obvious: One of the great problems with being an investor is that you can’t know for sure beforehand what’s a dip and a buying opportunity, and what’s the beginning of a long-term decline or a crash. That’s what sticks in my craw about mechanical stop-loss trading, because it doesn’t […]
Did anyone catch the Front Line Profits Summit on the 25th? Reactions/Comments?? $1995 is a ton of money to shell out.
Looks like Porter Stansberry is getting some traction with his new publishing company… he’s at least catching the attention of Gumshoe readers, according to my inbox, since folks are asking about his new “it’s like Treasuries on steroids” teaser. This isn’t a big promo — not yet, at least — but it looks like Porter’s […]
Earnings season is winding down, with only a few of my larger holdings yet to report, and so is my Annual Review of all of the stocks in my Real Money Portfolio — so I’ve got another installment of that for you today, sharing my updated opinion on a bunch of holdings (including a few […]
Christian DeHaemer has made quite a career out of picking somewhat controversial resource companies with tiny market caps in war-torn or politically unstable or distasteful areas of the world — and since two of them that he has teased in the past, Petro Matad in Mongolia and Dragon Oil in Turkmenistan, have done very very […]

Brian Tycango is pitching a few ideas for his Asian Growth Stocks newsletter — the letter often focuses on stocks that are tough for small US-only investors to buy (ie, no US listing and thinly traded on the pink sheets, or not on the pinks at all), but today he seems to be talking up […]
Several options trade recommendations per month, self-described as “conservative options for aggressive income.”
Dr. Kent Moors, who teaches political science at Duquesne and is an expert consultant on oil and gas topics, launched a newsletter with one of the many hype-crazy Agora-related publishers last year (Money Map Press, if you’re keeping track, itself a spinoff of Oxford Club if I’m keeping the spaghetti strands in order). In fact, […]
I’ve written about a number of teasers from Michael Robinson during the couple years he’s been heading up the American Wealth Underground newsletter for Taipan (if that name doesn’t ring a bell, you might remember that this letter used to be the hypetastic BreakAway Investor under Andrew Mickey and others). Robinson is telling us that […]
I love love love the stories of swashbucklers and voyages of discovery that pepper the finest investment teaser ads — long lost islands, pirate treasure, ancient mines left fallow since the days of the Pharaohs … now that’s how you pitch an investment idea! If we didn’t all want a little of the romance of […]
If you’re going to start your ad off with a line like this: “One Stock is the Difference between a Good 2011 and a Rolling-in-the-Dough 2011 … AND YOU DON’T OWN IT!” Well, you’re going to get the Gumshoe’s attention. I haven’t had a good “roll in the dough” since Scrooge McDuck invited me over […]
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 […]
Robert Hsu has been running this teaser ad for his Asia Edge newsletter for a week or two now, and I’ve gotten enough questions that it seems there’s some demand for the Gumshoe version (ie, the free version) of the answer. It seems unlikely, by the way, that this tease about the “Facebook of China” […]
I guess maybe that headline should be that we can buy Canada’s best junior miners for 69 cents on the Loonie, but that just doesn’t roll off the tongue as easily (though perhaps it should — remember when the Canadian dollar only cost us Americans about 65 cents? It’s now worth more than the depreciating […]
Agriculture is yet again a big story in the markets — we’re told not only that food inflation is a big part of the unrest that toppled Tunisia’s government, may be part of what’s bringing down Mubarak in Egypt, and is certainly a major part of the inflation that’s hitting China and other emerging markets, […]
Today’s teaser comes in from a name I haven’t heard before, a newsletter called Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin that’s put out by Keith Schaefer. Apparently it’s been around for a year and a half or so, and focuses on new technologies in the oil patch. And while I haven’t seen any teaser ads from […]
Sometimes a tease comes in as a heavy promo push, sometimes it’s a slightly more subtle pile of hints in a free article that gently suggests that you subscribe to their premium service … today’s item for sleuthification is the latter. Louis Basenese, who is pitching for the White Cap Report, wrote a free article […]
Today’s tease has been forwarded by a handful (or a few hands full, I suppose) of curious readers — our teaser is Mitchell Clark for his Penny Stock Reporter, and in exchange for his special recommendation of a Chinese copper stock he’d like you to sign up for a subscription to his newsletter … at […]
One of the ideas that I’ve been coming back to again and again is infrastructure — not necessarily just the kind of physical infrastructure that I talked about last month with Ferrovial, or things like power and highways and pipelines, but the basic kind of underlying businesses that keep other businesses operating. And in the […]

This teaser for one of Andy Obermueller’s newsletters has been making the rounds for a while, but it has so many aggressive predictions in it that the questions about it roll in to Stock Gumshoe HQ pretty regularly … so let’s see if we can pick out a few of his hot “investment opportunities,” shall […]
Today’s tease didn’t come to me directly and I haven’t seen the original ad or letter where it appeared, but this excerpt was forwarded by a large number of folks who appear to have some interest in a good ‘ol blue chip-type investment. The tease must have been in some kind of subscribers-only letter for […]
This is a fun one to start off the week with — Christian DeHaemer, who writes the Crisis and Opportunity newsletter that got us all so gaga over Mongolia early this year has a new pick to tease for us that he calls “God’s Chosen Investment” (that Mongolian oil push continues, by the way, my […]
