The buds are showing on the trees, the snow is gone, the bulbs are starting to poke their noses cautiously out of the mud … I’ll be gone most of next week (we’ll probably miss a few days of publishing, so steel yourselves for the feeling of loss you’ll have as you look at your inbox late in the week), and by the time I return Gumshoe Mountain will probably be green again. It’s enough to give you hope.
Unless you read your email, of course. The crocuses may be back, but we’re told it’s only a matter of time before they’re crushed by the lack of a gold standard, or the coming social unrest, or 1970s-style hyperinflation. Maybe so, but the 1970s, with all their depression and malaise, also brought the world Star Wars, the first artificial heart, the first cell phone, the first IVF baby, the first spreadsheet … and even the birth of your friendly neighborhood Gumshoe. Amazing things happen even in uncertain times.
So with that hopeful Spring note, what was on the teasing calendar this week?
We started out with a look at Chris Mayer’s “Coffee Can” stocks — picks to bury in a can in your backyard and hold forever. What are they? We’ve got at least some guesses to get started, check it out here. ———–advertisement———–

We moved next to a pitch that generated a lot of chatter — the tease from Keith Fitz-Gerald that you can double your money by buying “The Next Whole Foods.” So who is it? for that story and the details.
Later we checked out a group of picks touted by Tony Sagami for his new Asian Century trading service, as plays on the latest panic over the new bird flu outbreak in China. So what are his picks, including the “secret” one he won’t tell us about, and are they any good? for the Gumshoe answers.
I’ve had dozens of readers write in with questions about a little penny stock being “recommended” by Tobin Smith as a “gamechanger” that can turn heavy oil into nicely flowing crude … so what’s the deal with that stock? How about the other stocks being promoted in those glossy mailers you probably get at your house? for my answer to these questions. And we closed it out with the “Idea of the Month” for the Irregulars — if you’re in that august group and missed the email, that article at the top of the list here for your edutainment.
