"Betting $523,111 on this One Stock" -- Stock Gumshoe Daily Update

Last week we got things going with a blustery promise from Dr. Kent Moors that he has found "The Motherlode" in the desert and that somehow this entitles you to a piece of $1.4 trillion... sounds nice, right? Our story and explanation is here.

After that we moved on to an even more ambitious promise: Ray Blanco said he found the company that promises "no more diseases" and that the world would "stand still" when they announce their results on Wednesday morning. Spoiler alert: The world was profoundly unmoved when the news was announced the next day... but it's still an interesting story, you can see that one here.

Then it was on to another disease stopper -- this one an encore presentation of an Ernie Tremblay teaser solution, a $7 prostate cancer fighter... that story is here.

E.B. Tucker over at Casey's Strategic Investor newsletter is talking up "Bailout Compensation Checks" and making us think that thousand-dollar checks are on the way if we just learn the secret to signing up. What's the real story? Thinkolator results here.
