[ed. note: Michael Jorrin, who I like to call “Doc Gumshoe,” is a medical writer (not a doctor) who shares his thoughts with our readers a couple times a month. He does not generally cover investing topics, but I find his discussions of broader health issues interesting and useful. Enjoy!] Doc Gumshoe would not be […]
[Dr. KSS writes about medicine and biotech stocks for the Irregulars. He has agreed to our trade restrictions, chooses his own topics, and his words and opinions are his own. You can see all his past articles and more recent comments here.] Picture the gurbling fumaroles of Yellowstone: from the late 1990’s and on into […]
[ed note: Michael Jorrin, a medical writer who we have dubbed “Doc Gumshoe” (he’s not a doctor), shares his thoughts with us once or twice a month — what follows is his latest missive, the words and opinions below are his alone.] I didn’t plan it this way, but the timing of this Doc Gumshoe […]
[ed. note: Michael Jorrin, who I call Doc Gumshoe, is a longtime medical writer (not a doctor) who writes for us about medicine and health a couple times a month. He has agreed to our trading and disclosure restrictions, but does not generally write directly about investment ideas. His ideas, thoughts and words are his […]
This thread is designed to allow Irregulars to discuss, share and provide input for calender catalyst events, primarily but not limited to equities contained on the Green Tab of the KSS Da Man! spreadsheet that is maintained by Hi Pockets. The calender currently can be updated only by Benny, Lawrence, Dr. KSS and myself. The […]
So currently we are working on the short term 5G, sell-driving vehicles, AI/DL/ML, and electric vehicles.I have strong interest in Blockchain, financial privacy (I am tired of being taxed 5 times for every dollar and for even investments in Crypto). But also it provides a OpenBanking, OpenTrading. Crypto is not just ’coins’ the Blockchain is […]

Good title for an article, right? I’ve realized, after getting a few questions, that some Gumshoe readers are interested in a few of my less liquid, more levered, or riskier investments, the ones (like options and warrants) that I don’t really talk much about when I post my personal portfolio comments (except when there’s a […]
Lots of folks have been asking me about Bitcoin and Ethereum and the other alt-currencies of late, for obvious reasons (well, it’s obvious why folks are curious about it — far less obvious why anyone would seek my wisdom on the subject)… so I’ve got an extended bit of blather about those currencies to share […]
Let’s start with the bad news… we got quarterly updates this week from Charlotte’s Web (CWEB.TO, CWBHF) and II-VI (IIVI), both stocks I’ve bought fairly recently (IIVI just a few weeks ago, CWEB a few months ago), and those are both in the red. Neither one hit a stop loss yet, but what did we […]
[Ed. note: Here is our latest contribution from longtime reader Myron Martin. He has agreed to our trading restrictions, and, as usual, we have not reviewed, approved or screened his stocks or ideas, and the opinions he expresses are solely his own. Many of the stocks Myron covers are microcap “penny stocks” that can move dramatically […]
This month the temptation to buy, buy, buy is everywhere — at least, it is for an optimist, like me, who does not think we’re quite on the verge of another Great Depression. Stocks across almost every sector are historically cheap — that doesn’t mean they won’t get cheaper, but it may provide some comfort […]
This one is the $3.50 Coal Bed Methane (CBM) company that many of you have been asking about — it’s been teased several times recently by Mike Schaefer and the Pure Energy Report, which will run you about $495 for a year. Or … if you just want to know about this company … you […]
What is the stock Justin is talking about here? “Keep it simple, stupid.” A mentor of mine told me this early in my career. At the time, I thought it was a bit harsh. But the words stuck with me. They helped make me the investor I am today. Unlike many investors, I try not […]
Markel hosts a brunch each year following the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting, and has done so for 25 years now — during which time the company has grown considerably, from a small $100 million family-controlled specialty insurance company just starting to explore value investing with their new portfolio manager, Tom Gayner, to a $12 billion […]

Today it’s finally time for another “Idea of the Month” — which means, if recent history is prologue, that it’s time for the stock I’ll be writing about to take a nosedive. Perhaps today will be the exception, since these shares represent a company that continues to have a solid and growing business but that […]

For those who are curious about what I’m doing with my personal portfolio, I should note that I’ve let the cash balance build up a little bit (mostly through savings, not sales), and that I’ve had a couple transactions this week — I sold Teva (TEVA) as their strategy has morphed away from what I […]
I’ve had quite a few readers write in to ask me about silver lately — there was a spurt of “silver will be better than gold” newsletter teasers over the Summer, and this latest pitch from the Insiders Strategy Group folks for their Macro Trader newsletter has been filling up the inbox … … so […]
I haven’t written about any teasers from Dr. Stephen Leeb lately, but this one caught my eye — he’s got not only a made up term for an investment (the “MCR Plan”), but also a made-up term for how you’ll profit from it (“Income Stacking”). So the great readers of Gumshoedom have asked for answers, […]
“I Have Access to Financial Strategies That You Don’t Have… “And They Could Be Worth a Fortune “Starting with the Next 295% Extravaganza… “I just discovered a large, sudden and concentrated block of insider buying. “Please… pay attention to this… “I’m talking about 7 insiders, including the CEO and CFO. They just spent $353,000 on […]
Today we’ve had two good presentations at the Value Investing Congress so far — one from Lloyd Khaner with a pretty compelling argument that Jamba Juice (JMBA) has gone through the first three years of turnaround and is ready to ramp up again with much, much better management and strategy, including a presence in public […]
The Value Investing Congress is always fun, and I’ll be trying to learn plenty that I can share with you in the weeks ahead (and, hopefully, become a better investor myself in the process), but this year I decided to spend a bit more time in New York and take in the pre-Congress seminar as […]
I have been on Anatabloc for two months and it has changed my life completely. Anatabloc nutraceutical supplement available at GNC Thyroid Thyroid / Thyroiditis Overview In the USA alone over 70 million THYROID prescriptions are written at a value of about $2 billion; it’s the 4th most prescribed prescriptions for any disease. In the […]
I have followed the trials and tribulations of this company for a while and thought now would be a good time to mention it here. I say “now” because a lot of the uncertainty has been removed, major milestones are about to be achieved and yet, the valuation is in my humble opinion still very […]
I do have a quick teaser unveiling to share with you for today’s Friday File, but I want to start with a look at a stock that I own and that I suggested to the Irregulars several years ago, Sprott Resource Corp. (SCP in Canada, SCPZF on the pink sheets) Why? Because they just agreed […]
If you ever want a dose of optimism, just read through (or listen to) any of the ads for Breakthrough Technology Alert — Patrick Cox will have you swelling with rosy thoughts about a future without disease or hardship, with a nice dose of 1,000,000% returns thrown in … that, after all, is the raison […]
I bet we’ll be hearing teasers for Applied DNA Sciences (APDN) soon. APDN makes markers based on sequences of botanical DNA that as far as I understand are completely un-copyable. The technology is good enough that the DOD has mandated chip makers use APDN”s technology (http://www.circuitsassembly.com/cms/news/13220-us-defense-dept-using-dna-to-combat-counterfeits-). The stock is up about 100% over the last […]
What are your thoughts on BBDA BeBevCo company? Here is what I know about them. They are the exact opposite of 5 hour energy drinks and appear to have a niche in the 5 hour liquid relaxation category. They recently were granted the rights to sell in all 78 stores in South Carolina. The big […]
Now this is how a teaser ad should look! Any editor can promise huge gains — and heck, maybe even occasionally deliver on those dramatic gains if they get lucky or smart for a moment in time … but how many investment newsletters can tease that you’ll “live 20 years longer?” Here’s how Patrick Cox […]
I need help understanding just what happened here. Last month Arena got approval from the FDA on their Obesity pill Biquig I bought in at ten thinking this was great news and the stock would increase in value. Well since then it has hovered between 9.50 and 11.50. Then last week Vivus got approval on […]
I haven’t written about one of Hilary Kramer’s “Gamechanger” stocks in a while, so while lots of folks are feeling blue, doldrummy, or just plain pessimistic during the ides of July I thought I’d throw in a little of her optimism for you. She’s teasing a few stocks that she thinks her subscribers should load […]
The good folks over at the Money Map Press are selling memberships in their “Passport Club” this week, and your impetus for signing up is that they will reveal their top-secret obesity drug that they think will be approved in about a week. The Passport Club, by the way, is one of those “lifetime” offers […]
Shoal Point Energy (SHPNF in the U.S.) is drilling in NewFoundland, CAN. They have already cased 3K39z well and plan to release the potential of the well in the weeks ahead and presently doing a whipsock to the well. Their web site is http://www.shoalpointenergy.com or visit http://www.statesidereport.com/Four_Horsemen_of_the_Green_Point_Shale.pdf Any input from others? Thanks
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 […]

Patrick Cox is not a shy guy. I don’t think I’ve ever read one of his biotech teaser ads that didn’t leave me convinced (at least for a moment) that the world was about to be changed because of the newest potion or pill that his favorite little companies were developing. And this latest one […]
