Paul Mampilly is out with a teaser pitch headlined “America 2.0” that I can only describe as “big patriotic optimism” — he thinks we’re at the point of beginning a new huge wave higher for the US economy as demographics, capital availability, and the “economic velocity” in the economy converge to generate big growth. Which […]

“The ‘War’ for 5G: 3 Little-Known Stocks to See 60X Gains”
This pretty well sums up the pitch from Dave Forest in recent ads for Casey’s International Speculator ($1,995/yr, no refunds): “I believe these three rare earth stocks are a “lock” to go up 60x over the next few months… turning $500 into $30,000… and $5,000 into $300,000. “Demand is soaring… “Supply is shrinking… “President Trump […]

“The Stock of a Lifetime: The 1 Stock for This $15.7 Trillion Revolution.”
I need to start with this part, the most ludicrous promise made in the ad: “This little-known company, which you can still get in early on today, is at the forefront of this $15.7 trillion economic revolution. “Right now, it does about $3.3 billion in revenue annually… “Next year, I expect it to hit $100 […]

“Linchpin Device… and the Next Tech Giant”— What’s Fessler’s “$7 Tech Stock” to “Hand You Up to 24 Times Your Money?”
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 […]

Friday File: “Amazon-Like Profit Profile Could Double Investors’ Money Again This Year”
Happy New Year! Today I’ve got a teaser solution for you from one of the Cabot newsletters, and you’ll see in a minute why I chose to cover this one in the Friday File… and I’ve also got a few portfolio updates to share as the year gets underway and I finish up this first […]

Leeb’s “$26 Billion Treasure Trove 48 Miles North of the Arctic Circle”
A quickie teaser solution for you today as we enjoy the peace and quiet of a holiday when the market is closed… and we spend most of our day away from work, trying to spend some time reflecting on the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The ad I was asked about a few […]

What’s Casey’s Tiny $10 “5G Master Key” Stock?
There seems to be no limit to the number of different 5G pitches we can absorb… the newsletter pundits of the world have their teeth into this latest telecom trend, and they’re not letting go until they’ve signed up every possible subscriber. The promise this time is that a small company possesses the “Master Key” […]

DeHaemer’s “Next FAANG”— What are “The 4 MVPs of the Tap & Go Revolution?”
The “end of cash” story has been around for a long time, and it has fueled several waves of investment teaser ads over the past decade or so… which led me to wonder whether DeHaemer is pitching anything new or different in the ads for his Bull and Bust Report (currently $99/yr). So let’s dig […]

What’s Jeff Brown teasing in his “Timed Stocks Summit?”
Jeff Brown’s “Timed Stocks” pitch is essentially just another spiel about “buying biotech stocks before a catalyst event,” but it’s wrapped up in one of those video “summit” meetings that implies it’s something beyond a newsletter ad… and it’s so filled with massive promises of potential 1,000%+ gains that it’s driving a lot of Gumshoe […]

Navellier’s “The #1 Investment for the Coming 5G Revolution” and “Most Disruptive Innovation in 45 Years” Pitches
This is a teaser pitch that we solved back in May of 2018, but folks continue to ask about it… and our older article is getting pretty stale, so we’re digging in for an updated look today. The headline of the ad pretty much says it all: “The little-known Washington D.C. financial “think tank” that […]

Annual Review Part One
Today I’m starting my Annual Review, during which I take a (hopefully fresh-eyed) look at every stock in my Real Money Portfolio and update my opinion for you (and, frankly, for me, since it’s a good exercise). Some of these stocks pop up in my writing practically every week, but for others where there might […]

Fool’s “Small-cap ‘Amazon of the North'”
This article was originally published on October 30, 2019 when we first saw the Motley Fool “Amazon of the North” ads — it’s being teased again this week, so we’re re-posting this solution to help answer reader questions. The stock being teased has risen about 15% since we first covered the pitch, but the story […]

Elfenbein’s “ONLY 5G Stock You Need to Buy”
You should follow Eddy Elfenbein on Twitter, he’s a funny and interesting guy. But you shouldn’t sign up for his newsletter just to learn a “secret” stock pick. I’m not picking specifically on Elfenbein there, of course, just my regular public service announcement that sending money to someone to learn about a stock pick that […]

Will “Blue Gas” be the “Tesla Killer?”
The most-requested teaser to start this fresh new year is probably the Blue Gas/Tesla Killer one from Jimmy Mengel, in an ad for The Crow’s Nest ($99/yr) — and today I’m finally getting to it. If you’re keeping track, we first saw these “Blue Gas” iterations of the ad around December 18 (though different “Tesla […]

Friday File unlock: What’s the “Bank of Marijuana?”
This teaser solution first appeared in the Friday File on December 20. It has not been updated or revised, Irregulars can see the original here if they prefer.

It’s time for part two of our Annual Review, this week I’m getting to a few of my largest holdings, including some that reported earnings recently and have had a big impact on the market. In the big picture, we’ve seen what impact a surprise event like the viral epidemic in China can cause… and […]

Today I’m looking into an insider trading pitch from a service I haven’t heard of before — the ad is staged as a “seminar presentation” by Ross Givens about how he follows insider buying signals to pick winning stocks, with the implication that he’ll be finding ideas that match some of the historically phenomenal insider […]

What’s “The #1 True Alpha Stock to Own Right Now?” We’re teased that this company has a “Virtual Monopoly on Global Communications”
I’ve gotten a few questions about the new “True Alpha” pitch from Charles Mizrahi that uses “David and Goliath” imagery, so we’re checking that one out today… mostly because the idea of this firm having “a virtual monopoly on the future of 5G and IoT” piqued my interest. Mizrahi’s letter extols his past success in […]
