Miss anything that we covered at Stock Gumshoe last week?
The most popular new article was my piece about the "Next Netflix" that one of the Motley Fool analysts pitched as the "Best IPO I've Ever Seen." So what was it, and is it at all interesting? Thinkolator results and some blatheration here.
And the second most popular piece on the week was actually a rerun -- the questions about Stansberry's latest promotion are piling in, so we're trying to answer them... which is fairly easy, since the current ad for Ferris' Exteme Value about the "#1 stock recommendation of my career" is a rehash of an ad that we wrote about back in February. Ferris says this is a royalty company, and "collecting royalties is one of the most lucrative businesses on earth" ... so he's talking this up as a 20X opportunity over the long term. What's the story? We "refreshed' our answer for you by posting an update of that article,you can find that here.
We also looked at a strategy that Karim Rahemtulla is promoting called "Stock Market Coupons" -- a way to buy stocks "at a discount" and also collect some "instant cash"... sound like a trip to the 7-11? Yes, it's a little silly, but there is somethign real underneath it --check out our story here for more details.
Ian Wyatt also caught my eye this week with some dropped hints about the next "Liberty Check" that might be coming your way -- these are really just special dividends, but he did well with the last one... so what's he pitching this time? Click here to see what I found.
And it all closed out with the Friday File, as usual -- that's in two parts that are linked below in the Irregulars Corner, but most of my commentary for the week is in my notes on the Grant's Intereset Rate Observer conference here.
