Apologies for those who were unable to get in to the site this morning — some technical problems with my host really messed things up. I hope to be able to fix it soon so that doesn’t happen again. Anyway, on with the work at hand: This teaser has been circulating for a few months, […]

The article below originally appeared on July 17, 2014 around the time the teaser pitch from the Oxford Club folks started circulating. The ad is being seen by lots of our readers again now, and we’re getting a lot of questions about it, so we re-post it here for your information… the ad seems unchanged […]
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 […]
I have instituted a little tradition here at Stock Gumshoe, each Thanksgiving I like to pick out my favorite “Turkey of the Year” … the teaser stock pick that promised millions, but fizzled despite the best attempts of newsletter writers to promote the stock to new subscribers. And if you’ve been around this space for […]
Steve McDonald made some friends in the world of Gumshoe a few years ago, when his income-focused advisory The Bond Trader was doing pretty well. He moved on from that to a service with a similar strategy for the Oxford Club folks called Oxford Bond Advantage, and he’s now pitching that newsletter by tantalizing readers […]
Another Monday morning, another “next wave of the internet” teaser. This teaser comes in from the Oxford Income Letter, edited by Marc Lichtenfeld over at the Oxford Club, and it’s a bit of a departure from the crazy small cap names he has more often touted of late (usually for his MicroCap Tech Trader newsletter). […]
Um, no. That’s just stupid. But it is the subject line of the latest teaser pitch from the Oxford Club for their membership and their Communique newsletter — the subject reads, “The One Stock Obama Doesn’t Want You to Know About.” Why? Well, it’s not even really implied in the ad message that follows — […]
This one may not be entirely loaded with secret stocks, since I suspect quite a few ardent Gumshoe readers have already figured out who they’re talking about as “Steve Jobs’ Mentor” … and therefore figured out which company they’re teasing … but, well, I’m still getting a lot of questions every day on this one, […]
“This company is about to IPO – for $100 Billion … If you follow the insiders you could turn every $1,000 you invest into $1,650 in the exciting weeks ahead.” That’s the lead-in to the latest pitch from the Oxford Club folks, which, in short, tells us that facebook is going to IPO soon … […]
A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of snooping around in Ian Wyatt’s teaser for a “Real Estate Tax Rebate,” so when I saw this latest Oxford Club pitch for a “Reverse Income Tax Fund” that you could invest in, well, it seemed only fair to give it a gander. So what’s the story? […]
Today we’re working from a short and “low on clues” ad from the Oxford Club, but several readers have asked and I’m always interested in investing in strong brands, so I thought we should at least see what the Thinkolator says. The pitch is for Oxford Club membership, and the tease is that the latest […]
Any thoughts on the 5G stock being teased by David Fessler (Oxford Club)?Any thoughts on the 5G stock being teased by David Fessler (Oxford Club) with this copy?: Former Telecom Insider Reveals… This Is the Only 5G Stock You Need to Own. “At the end of the day, we will NEVER see nationwide 5G coverage without this obscure California tech firm’s patented ‘linchpin’ device.” In the ad, […]
I’ve seen this particular ad a few times in the last week or so, and I know that there are many folks out there in Gumshoe Land with a yen for silver, so I thought it deserved a few minutes of consideration. The ad is for a special report from the Oxford Club — sounds […]
Has anyone Got an opinion on this new stocks to by during the corona virus ?
This article originally ran on January 12… the teaser pitch was still being circulated heavily last week, and the stock released earnings on February 3 that disappointed investors, bringing shares down about 15% (it was teased as a “$7 biotech,” and briefly $8, before then). The original Jan. 14 “special event” catalyst teased by Lichtenfeld, […]
Dear Oxford Communiqué Reader, Right now, 1.5 million Americans suffer from one of the deadliest diseases you can have – aortic stenosis, a painful closing down of the aortic valve. About 250,000 people a year experience the excruciating symptoms… Exhaustion… dizziness… fainting… stroke… heart failure… and sudden death. Left untreated, aortic stenosis, or AS, has […]
I’ve been puttering around and thinking about several different teaser ads recently, but this one percolated to the top of the pile when I read Alexander Green’s characterization of it as the “Easiest Grand-Slam Stock of the New Year” … so what is it? Well, the ad is for the basic membership in the Oxford […]
Marc Lichtenfeld Is promoting a “small drug royalty company has inked deals with the biggest players in the pharmaceutical industry, including Pfizer, Merck, Eli Lilly, Novartis and more”…. Anyone knows which company he is referring to?

Before I get into a bunch of updates for companies I follow and/or own, with some good news and some bad news, I do have a quick teaser solution to toss on the fire for you… This one I got late today, and it’s from the Oxford Club’s Dave Fessler — he’s pitching his Oxford […]
Higher-end trading advisory from Manward Press, which was launched as an Agora affiliate in 2017 and promotes itself as “publishing ideas that lead men to richer, fuller lives that overflow with freedom.” Andrew Snyder previously worked for the Oxford Club and other Agora publishers.
The latest pitch from the Oxford Club is all about another change from Trump’s Washington that they think will make you rich — and they’re not at all shy about throwing some hyperbole on the fire, saying that Trump will “unleash the greatest investment of all time.” So what is this investment they’re hinting at, […]
Travis, can you please tell us your opinion on the Service that Steve McDonald is promoting his ”Oxford Bond Advantage”? Is it legitimate and realistic? Thx for your insight, Paul
Ed note: this article was first published in 2015, but the ad continues to run and readers continue to ask about it, so we’re re-posting this teaser solution for you today. What follows has not been meaningfully updated or revised since it was originally published on March 14, 2015, though some minor updates have been […]
what are they all about
I’m listening to a long, aren’t they always long, presentation via the Oxford Club, on the legalization of marijuana and the multi, multi possible returns if you get into the right stocks and avoid the losers. Some preliminary research shows that this is a bill in Canada, though the presentation implies it’s the US. My […]
Fear Of Missing Out is such a big deal that it gets its own acronym in my book (FOMO — and a clever FOMO-fueling website here), and it drives investors to take huge chances just so they don’t have to worry about missing a chance at stupendous gains. That’s what many newsletter ads use to […]
This latest pitch from the Oxford Club has really caught the attention of Gumshoe readers — lots of questions about this “Jupiter Engine” that will “end global warming” and make all other power plants obsolete… mostly, of course, because it’s also supposed to give you “the retirement of your dreams” as revenue “surges by 4,130%” […]
I went into a lot more detail on the David Fessler’s teased “ultra-lithium” company on Tuesday, but there was also some curiosity about the second lithium stock he hinted at in those ads for his Oxford Resource Explorer, so I’ll take a quick look-see at that one as well. If you want to go back […]
Monthly newsletter broadly covering natural resources stocks of all stripes, from metals to energy.
We’ve got a good backlog of teaser pitches to get to, as usual, but this one filtered to the top for our attention today — it’s an ad from David Fessler for his Oxford Resource Explorer newsletter (currently $79), and the ad seems mostly to have gotten folks’ attention because of a link from one […]
Anyone know what the Dark Trade pitch is all about?… I like some of Oxford stuff they are really pushing this. Is it worth a look?
Welcome back from vacation, me! There’s no question what ad should be covered first as I brush the sand off my feet and turn up the heat here at Gumshoe HQ… it’s the pitch from Marc Lichtenfeld for his Lightning Trend Trader over at Oxford Club, and the “special report” he’s dangling as bait. That […]
Lots of questions rolling in about this one — it’s a pitch for Sean Brodrick’s Oxford Resource Explorer, which these days is offered at $79 a year (or $49 for email-only)… though the letter is actually signed by David Fessler, one of their analysts who has generally been touted as an energy and resource expert […]
[ed. note: We’re getting questions about this ad, so perhaps it’s circulating again — to help answer those questions, we’re re-posting this article that we originally published last November when we saw the first version of this ad. The Irregulars Quick Take has been updated above, but what follows has not been updated, changed or […]
Newsletter copywriters are no different from other marketers: they will do whatever it takes to get attention by playing off of something or someone that has celebrity or notoriety. In the past that’s meant implying that some big celebrity investor has a connection to a “secret” stock or technique, or that someone high up in […]
Late last week I started digging into a teaser from Sean Brodrick at Oxford Resource Explorer that promised “three supercharger plays” for the bull market in precious metals that he expects — and though I only “solved” the first teased stock that day I promised to follow up and catch up on the other two. […]
The gold bull market is really back, at least when it comes to newsletter promotions. Probably the quickest off the starting line was Porter Stansberry with his “Metropolitan Club” plan and introduction of the Stansberry Gold Investor service in late March that drove a lot of investor attention to the gold mining sector (not many […]
Today I’m re-sharing one of our older pieces that a lot of folks are still asking about, and that’s being actively promoted still with emails trumpeting that the CEO said that “this historic event opens a new chapter for the country” and will bring this company $2.9 billion per year. What follows first appeared as […]
