You’ve almost certainly seen these ads from Paul Mampilly, the ones that start with the headline “These Warehouses Hold the Key to a $3.1 Trillion Dollar Revolution…” The ad has been running since at least the Summer of 2018, and has not really been updated at all in the interim as far as I can […]

Looking into “This Secret Arms Race Could Mint Another Round of Crypto Millionaires in 2020…”
Jason Stutman is peddling his Technology & Opportunity letter ($99/yr) with a new tease about blockchain, so I thought it would be good to take a look at that after we sniffed around in Paul Mampilly’s (older) blockchain tease yesterday. The spiel is all about an “arms race” in bitcoin mining that will be spurred […]

Thinkolating on Ray Blanco’s tease: “Fighting The Coronavirus: 3 Companies That Could Save Lives and Make You a Fortune”
I’ve gotten a few questions about the latest Technology Profits Confidential (currently $79/yr) tease from Ray Blanco, so although it’s a few weeks old now, and started circulating right in the heat of the first coronavirus downturn in mid-March, I thought I’d take a look today. It is still a current ad, I got it […]

Friday File: How about Hedging?
What will probably serve investors best right now is patience. Don’t sell all at once, don’t buy all at once, and don’t feel like you have to do something every day. If you’re someone whose heartrate climbs as you open your brokerage account website and feel the urge to buy or sell every few minutes, […]

Digging into Teeka Tiwari’s “Genesis”— What are the “Three Must-Own Stocks that Will Power Blockchain’s 295,000% Revolution”
I’ve gotten a bunch of questions about Teeka Tiwari’s “Trump Tower” teaser pitch recently, so although the ad is actually a little bit old now (it’s still got a January 29 date under the signature) I thought I’d give it a look today. It is still circulating heavily, and it’s an ad for Palm Beach’s […]

Brown’s 5G “Top Pick to Buy Right Now”
Another day, another interminable sales “presentation” … my kingdom for a transcript! This ad is from Jeff Brown for his higher-end tech stock picking service, Exponential Tech Investor (“on sale” for $2,000 for two years), published by Bonner & Partners, and he says he’ll be offering “tiny 5G bonus picks to buy now” as well […]

Friday File: More on that “WeWork of Cannabis” Report

(And if you don’t care about IIPR at all or aren’t interested in “bear attacks”, you can skip […]

Motley Fool Cloud Disruptors 2020
One of the Motley Fool Discovery services, portfolio advisories that specialize in one niche — this one is teased as having a startup portfolio of 20 “cloud” stocks to capitalize on “The Motley Fool’s No. 1 Technology Investment for the 2020s,” which will be added to with regular new recommendations.

A “Rule Breaker” and some “Cloud Disruptors”… A Smorgasbord of “Secret” Fool Picks
The Motley Fool put together a new push for Tom Gardner’s “no. 1 technology investment” late last week, including yet another “presentation” with Tom Gardner, Eric Bleeker and Tim Beyers, so we’ve gotten quite a few questions… and I also got a few other questions this week about a David Gardner teaser pitch, so we’re […]

What’s Stansberry’s “The Government-Proof, Inflation-Proof, Crisis-Proof, Bear-Market Proof ‘Super Stock’ You Want to Own Today?”
Sometimes when I’m choosing which ad to cover on a given day it’s based on the number of questions I’ve gotten, or the number of times we’ve seen the ad in the past few days… and sometimes it’s based on something that just feels like something interesting. Today it’s the latter… because Brett Aitken and […]

Thinkolating on Oxford Club’s “The Three Biggest Winners of the Coronavirus Recovery”
Today I’m getting a lot of questions about the “Coronavirus Recovery Package” being pitched by Alexander Green — he’s selling Oxford Club subscriptions ($99) by promising a special report called “The Three Biggest Winners of the Coronavirus Recovery.” Green’s big-picture intro is pretty reasonable and rational, and similar to lots of other folks these days […]

What’s Tilson’s ““TaaS?” He says “It could put up to an extra $5,600 back in your pocket each year”
The newest ad for Whitney Tilson’s Empire Stock Investor ($49, renews at $199) is all about this “Taas” business, and I’ve gotten a few questions since it started circulating a week or two ago… so let’s dig in! The basic idea is that “TaaS,” which is “Transportation as a Service,” is going to take off […]

Friday File: Cheap Insurance and Expensive Silver
Here’s my soothsaying bit for this week, which you should feel free to ignore — like everyone else who’s predicting the future, I’m probably going to be wrong. I don’t think, even now, that we’re pricing in even the bad news that is already almost certain this year… or if we are, we’re pricing in […]

Trade Note: Tax Loss Harvesting
I share Trade Note updates with you, my favorite people, whenever I do any meaningful buying or selling in between Friday Files, but they’re usually shorter notes in the comment threads — today I’ve chugged through a string of relatively small trades that I need to update you on, and I’ve got a few minutes, […]

Investigating Mampilly’s “Battery Breakthrough of the 21st Century” Teaser Pitch
This teaser ad from Paul Mampilly is a bit of a bait and switch, primarily teasing a specific company that you really can’t invest in directly, so that’s your warning up front… but we’ll dig through the ad and see what he’s talking about. Here’s the beginning of the ad: “The No. 1 Stock for […]

Motley Fool Canada’s “Triple Down” Stock
The Motley Fool loves to use terms like “double down” and “triple down” in its ads for some reason, and this latest one basically extends a previous Motley Fool US pitch to Motley Fool Canada… but I’ll cover it quickly for you because the questions do pile up about these ideas. The pitch is in […]
