[Ed Note: Myron Martin writes for the Irregulars primarily about junior miners. As always, he has agreed to our trading restrictions, chooses his own topics and his words are his own. Myron is Canadian, and most of the prices and dollar amounts cited are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. Enjoy!] With 4 months’ accumulation of data, […]

OK, I know, it’s getting a little ridiculous that I still haven’t covered the whole portfolio of stocks with my annual review updates — but for some I’m waiting to see what the quarterly update tells me, and for others, well, I’m just trying to catch up. Here’s what I’ve got for you by way […]
We’re all growing more and more immune to hyperbole, I hope, but the combination of hype-filled newsletter pitches, shallow commentary from attention whores on CNBC, and clickbait headlines is enough to put you off investing in the market at all… how many times can you hear words like “collapse” and “beaten down” and “nightmare” applied […]
Ed. note: Here the latest installment from longtime reader Myron Martin. He has agreed to our trading restrictions (he won’t trade the stocks he mentions for three days), and 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 […]
Several readers have asked about “consolidation” in Sandstorm Gold shares — this is not, mind you, the chart-speak kind of “consolidation,” which means the stock is moving down, but the actual consolidation of a reverse split. So since Sandstorm Gold (SSL in Canada, SNDXF on the pink sheets) is my largest holding and I know […]
Since the other part of today’s Friday File is all about a biotech stock tease, I thought I’d start out this week’s look at my Real Money Portfolio stocks in that sector. I avoid the drug developers, for the most part, but health care should be a huge sector and a growing one, in general, […]
Gold remains one of the most discussed investment themes of the year, with the price of the yellow metal bumping up and down between $900 and $1,000 an ounce — and I hold some gold and some gold mining stocks as well, but it is, in any decent economy, a terrible investment. I consider holding […]

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 […]
MAKE YOUR PORTFOLIO GREAT AGAIN ! This thread is a continuation of several threads posted previously by the author on gold and silver and hard asset investments. I am still a believer in hard assets. I also believe we are entering a period of inflation with continued dollar devaluation, higher interest rates, and a sluggish […]
I’ve got a handful of updates for you, including one on a stock that I bought yesterday and a few other notes about recent quarterly reports from stocks I follow, but first … a teaser to solve … When I wrote about Marc Lichtenfeld’s pitch for “Spread Trusts” yesterday, I promised to also try to […]
Before I get into some updates on my Real Money Portfolio, I’ve got a quick look at a teaser that several of you have asked about: Keith Schaefer’s pitch for his Oil and Gas Investments Bulletin about a “perfect business model” and “everything you want as an investor.” Here’s how Keith gets our mouths watering: […]
The Biggest Silver Squeeze in History is Happening Right Now Here’s what you need to know to capture huge potential gains on the run up… Dear Reader, I’m Peter Krauth. As a global resource specialist, I’ve been rubbing shoulders with the speculators… miners… traders… and ”insiders” who have set and moved the price for metals […]

Hello, merry Gumshoe-ers! I’m going to be on the road next week to attend two conferences, the Grant’s Interest Rate Observer conference in New York mid-week, and the MIT Sloan Conference on Friday — so I’ll be sharing some notes with you with my thoughts on what I hear at those confabs, with fingers crossed […]

Each year I go through all of the stocks that I either own personally or have brought to the attention of the Irregulars (there’s quite a bit of overlap on those lists), and I make sure to update my thoughts and opinion on that stock in an organized and, hopefully, disciplined way — that helps […]
This new teaser from Dan Ferris for his Extreme Value newsletter wins the prize for “most questions sent to the Gumshoe” over the weekend … so I thought I better jump right on it this morning. If you get any of the Agora or Stansberry free emails, or subscribe to any newsletters in those families, […]
I’ve spent the past couple Fridays looking at stocks I like in this Friday File space, so I thought I’d get back into doing some teaser review for the delightful Stock Gumshoe Irregulars this week — and who better to take a look at than Larry Edelson, who is part of the oft-discussed Weiss universe […]

This article below was originally written for the Irregulars in their Friday File and published on June 23. It has not been updated or edited, but the ad is still circulating with similar, if not identical, language. In regards to disclosure: Though I did own shares of Royal Gold, as noted below, at the time […]
Today’s wee tease is from a guy who is most known as a commodity and oil super-bull in recent years — and his picks today follow that theme quite nicely. Leeb’s top pick in the annals of Gumshoedom is actually unrelated to gold, oil or other commodities — his top pick on our tracking spreadsheets […]
This article was originally published on the members-only Irregulars site on July 31, 2009, it is being reproduced here but has not been updated or significantly revised. Now that Matt Badiali’s S&A Oil Report has renamed itself the S&A Resource Report, it shouldn’t be any surprise that he’s looking not just at the energy companies […]
This ad has been floating to the top of my inbox for a couple days now, and since the people have spoken I thought I better write about it right quick for you — I am, after all, your humble sleuthing servant. Well, OK, maybe not so humble all the time, but do you want […]
Just to be clear, when I include that “3-to-1 Gains Guaranteed” in the headline, that’s a quote from the ad — your friendly neighborhood Stock Gumshoe doesn’t guarantee anything, except that I’ll continue to do my best to dig into these fabulous teaser ads … you keep reading, I’ll keep writing, that’s the deal. Today’s […]
Now that Matt Badiali’s S&A Oil Report has renamed itself the S&A Resource Report, it shouldn’t be any surprise that he’s looking not just at the energy companies that have been a big part of his focus over the past several years, but at gold. Lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of his ad that […]

This ad caught the attention of a lot of Gumshoe readers over the weekend, which isn’t surprising — it’s filled with promise: “One of the world’s top geologists makes an $80,000 bet… “Now It’s About to Turn Into a $10.1 Billion Gold Mine “And give you the rare opportunity to ‘buy’ gold for 17 cents […]
I cover Peter Schiff in this space from time to time, mostly because he sends out a newsletter every few months and includes some teaser picks that often sound interesting — of course, he runs a brokerage firm, not a newsletter, so he wants you to get a sales pitch from one of his brokers […]
I’ve never heard of David Skarica before, but I’ve been seeing a lot of ads for his stuff lately — he runs a newsletter called Gold Stock Adviser, and like so many others, he predicts that the bulge in US Government spending and borrowing makes inflation inevitable … and that the “gold rush is just […]

This ad is another one that piggybacks on Peter Schiff — as they did a few months ago, the folks at the Money Map Report are trying to sell their newsletter subscription by giving away a copy of one of Schiff’s books as part of the deal — and their promise is quite similar to […]
Well, the gold price seems to be recovering slightly this morning after a few days of backtracking once it got close to the $1,000 level again … so it’s time to look at another gold ad, no? Today’s feature is an ad for the Big Gold service from Casey Research, edited by Jeff Clark (there […]
The Money Map folks are currently selling their subscription service by offering to throw in a free copy of Peter Schiff’s Crash Proof … the book is a couple years old now, and will be updated by a new version this Fall, but they tease a few of the investment ideas Schiff focuses on — […]
That’s the promise of the latest teaser ad from the Penny Mining Speculator, Chuck de Castro’s pricey newsletter ($5,200 a year) that shoots for the moon using little mining companies with great potential. We’ve looked at de Castro’s stuff a few times before — he turned us on to a tiny oil stock that did […]
