Jay's 30-Year "Clown Show"

One disgruntled subscriber thinks he is "on to me" & suggests I should retire.

Jay’s Recent “Downtrodden Company” performance

The above stock performances were marked from the time I first provided coverage for the general public on Substack and YouTube until July 7, 2025. That performance differs from what my paid subscribers have experienced. For example, I first offered coverage on Hydrograph on January 3, 2025 at US$0.17, not at the March 7 price of US $0.2349 as shown above. In fact with the stock moving higher after I fist covered it, it triggered warrant conversions. That have put some downward pressure on HG’s price since then but it also increased the company’s cash resource.

A free subscriber named Krenshaw who apparently has a bone to pick with me for some reason responded to my most recent interview with Kjirstin Breure of Hydrograph Clean Power as follows:

“Jay Taylor recommended HydroGraph at 21 cents on 03/23/2025. It's down nearly 20% since then.

“The 30+ year clown show of his "newsletter" (infomercial) continues. It's time to retire, Jay. Really. We're on to you at this point.”

Judging by the performance of these beleaguered stocks, my clown show has worked out pretty well.

I have no idea why this subscriber felt compelled to hurl darts my way. I have certainly had losers since I started publishing on October 15, 1981. But I have also had my share of “10, 20 and 30 baggers” as well. When you cover high risk/high return sectors like mineral exploration and start up companies you expect some losses.

So, regarding Mr. Krenshaw’s comments I have to set the record straight. Early this year when I felt that we may be onto a huge upside for the gold miners and that based on fundamentals certain companies were a “screaming buy,” I decided to start touting free of charge, the most beleaguered companies on my list starting with Lahontan Gold Corp which was selling for ~2 cents.

As for the allegation that my interviews are nothing more than “clown show infomercials,” I charged nothing for initial interviews with Lahontan, Hydrograph Clean Power, Klondike, Nevada King, Golden Cross, and Palisades.

I have charged a nominal fee to Lahontan (5/6), Klondike Gold (5/14) and Alaska Silver (5/23). And I have charged a fee to Firefox Gold. Does Mr. Krenshaw expect me to work for nothing? If I don’t show at least a little profit, the IRS begins to ask questions about business deductions. So I charge fees now and then from companies to make sure I show a profit. But only from those companies whose shares are, in my view undervalued and deserve the attention of more eyeballs.

Yes, Mr. Krenshaw, I am of retirement age. I’m 78. But I hate golf. I live in Queens, NYC so there is not a lot of opportunity to take up gardening. I hate sitting around watching TV. I like to keep busy doing things that help people. If there were more of your fellow subscribers who think my work is not helpful, I would “hang up my spikes” and find something else to do that I enjoy. But as long as people benefit from my work and I still enjoy doing it, I shall continue until my Creator tells me to stop.

I plan to continue doing interviews with companies that I believe still remain significantly undervalued, ideally soon after they have significant news to share with you.

With that I want to offer my best wishes to all of my subscribers, including to Mr. Krenshaw.
