“Coming Soon: the Paper-Thin iPad … how you can profit now”

It seems a little petty now, with these miraculous little iPad doohickeys, to complain that they’re too heavy, or too thick — seriously? They’re thousands of times more powerful than the Mac that got me through college just fine. Though I will be attending my 20th reunion this summer, and I couldn’t watch TV or [...]

Winners!

I’ve been slow to catch up with letting you know the winners of our recent holiday contest, and several folks have been asking … so I’m very sorry to have been so pokey. But today, I’m pleased to announce the three winners of the Stock Gumshoe contest, each of whom will receive a 2010 Proof [...]

“‘The Big One’ … The Single Greatest Way to Play the Next Agricultural Boom”

As I promised yesterday, there’s a second “special report” being teased by Michael Lombardi as an enticement to new subscribers to his Investing with Michael newsletter … … the first one was that “New Swiss Bank” teaser that told us we could get 5% yields, growth and safety on par with the Swiss banks (or [...]

What is Lombardi’s “New Swiss Bank Account” teaser all about?

The latest pitch from Michael Lombardi is for one of those “limited to our best customers” newsletters, something he calls Investing with Michael, which seems to mostly be a safety-focused large cap stock picking service. If that’s true then a thousand bucks a year is a bit steep, but certainly not unheard of — and [...]

“This ‘Cloud’ Has A Golden Lining (and a 9% dividend)” (Roger Conrad)

We looked at a few teaser picks from the Australian Edge service back when it launched last Fall, but this appears to be the first big push for new subscribers since then (don’t know the track record so far, but they say they’re “on track” for 106% gains this year). I’ve gotten this teaser ad [...]

“How to Play Genomics for Potential Triple-Bagger Gains”

Marc Lichtenfeld, who we’ve covered a number of times in this space, focuses largely on biotech investments — he’s teased a number of them for a variety of different newsletters that he has helmed or contributed to, but it looks like he’s now launching a new letter from the Oxford Club called FirstLine Investor Alert. [...]

Crippled by a Lie, Profit Margins Exploding, and “Location, Location, Location”

More “Contrarian Bonanza” picks, you ask? Well of course! There are several new teaser ads stacking up in the Thinkolator’s inbox, but before we get to those … let’s close the book on the “contrarian bonanza” picks from the Weiss folks as they tease their Million-Dollar Contrarian Portfolio. There are three left of the seven [...]

“Contrarian Bonanza … the company just raised its revenue targets by nearly 80%. Wall Street barely noticed.”

It’s a long list of teasers that tempts us into the Weiss fold, enticing us to subscribe to his real-money Million-Dollar Contrarian Portfolio. Tempted to subscribe? No, not the mighty Gumshoe! Tempted to sniff out the answers for free? You bet! The first teaser picks from this ad inspired a bit of debate (though, to [...]
