When I purchased Stellar Biotechnologies, it was a speculative investment with a compelling story. These are the microcap stocks I like to get involved with. Holding it for the past year was a roller coaster ride, and gave me reason to question my investment. The more research I did, the more I felt confident in […]

[Ed note: This article was originally published in June, 2013 when the shares of the stock teased, Alnylam (ALNY) were around $30 and the Oxford Club was saying that the first person to live to 1,000 is already alive … now they’re touting it as the holder of the “Magic” Keys to Immortality, but the […]
This article originally ran on January 8, 2013. It has not been updated save for the addition of this brief introductory note. More recent ad pitches on this same topic that say the stock and ticker have been “hacked” probably refer to our coverage of the story, but the more recent ads do not appear […]
I guess now pretty much everyone has jumped aboard the Marijuana bandwagon — the Motley Fool is a bit later to the party, having just announced its Marijuana Masters investing service ($1,499, no refunds), helmed by David Kretzmann (a new name to me), so let’s see what it is that the typically much more mainstream […]
This is the first ticker specific discussion…..if it works, there may be many others. The aim is to have a chronological knowledge diary. If your comment is about ANYTHING other than $ARTH…please DONT post it here. **Please note that this post has been closed to further comment. The discussion on ARTH has moved over to […]
I’ve gotten a bunch of questions about Teeka Tiwari’s “Trump Tower” teaser pitch recently, so although the ad is actually very old now (it’s still got a January 29, 2020 date under the signature) I thought I’d re-share our solution. It is still circulating heavily, and it’s an ad for Palm Beach’s “entry level” newsletter […]

This will surely not be the last time Doc Gumshoe turns his attention to the pandemic that is now imposing misery on many parts of the world. I need to acknowledge that when what was then generally called the Wuhan virus first came to my attention, I expressed the view that, despite the dire […]

Apparently, Teeka’s “The Super Halving” event refers to a complete stop in new supply of Bitcoin that according to Teeka will happen this year instead of the originally intended year 2140 (120 years from now!). He claims that there will be 6 small altcoins that will see a price increase that will be much higher […]

The one area of the web that has as many “self help” and “miracle solutions” newsletters (and marketing teasers) as personal finance is health — the investing newsletters promise eternal wealth, and the health newsletters promise eternal life (or something dang close). Readers ask us about the crazy marketing for these health newsletters all the […]
Jeff Brown is pitching something he calls a “global token exchange” recently, abbreviating it “G.T.E.”, and reader questions are piling up on the doormat here at Gumshoe Manor, so it’s time to take a look… The basic spiel, which takes the form of a long presentation/interview between Jeff Brown and a hired talking head that […]
A pre-emptive tease: no newsletters are yet touting this company, but like many stocks that they do tease, it is small, cheap, almost unknown, and even has the exotic appeal of being Australian. Sort of. At Stock Gumshoe we not only deconstruct pitched stocks, we find teasable stocks before the newsletters do! Let’s return to […]

I know I’ve said this before, and sometimes it’s a lie: I’m going to try to keep this one brief. Agora Financial’s FDA Trader service has a new pitch out — which normally might not get that much attention, since everyone is suddenly terrified of biotech stocks after a brutal month or two — but […]
We will no longer be publishing the commentary of Dr. KSS, who wrote about biotech stocks for the Irregulars for several years. Late last week, he decided to move on and resign from his work here. I imagine he will likely start his own publication of some sort in the future — all I know […]

Heads up: I made a mistake on this one when it first went up on the site. We strive for at least a 99% accuracy rate in identifying teaser targets, and this is apparently my mistake for 2014. Thanks to several readers for alerting me to the fact that I moved too quickly in posting […]
