01How it works

From marketing hype to a real ticker

We never sell picks or subscriptions. We name the ticker, show the clues behind it, and track how the pick actually did.

01

Collect the clues

We pull every hard fact from the promo: revenue figures, acquisitions, locations, patents and partners.

02

Match the company

We search filings and news until one company fits every clue, then a second editor double-checks it.

03

Publish and track

The ticker goes live free, and we track the pick at 30, 90 and 365 days against the S&P 500.

04Accountability

Analyst leaderboard

Average 365-day return on each writer's teased picks versus the S&P 500.

How to read a stock teaser

Teasers are long sales letters or videos built to make you subscribe. They hint at a stock with dramatic language and hold back the name. The clues are usually real, but the framing is designed to create urgency.

Red flags to watch for

  • Countdown timers and "buy before Monday" deadlines.
  • Comparisons to past winners like Nvidia, Amazon or Tesla.
  • Political or "secret government" angles with no named source.
  • Huge percentage gains quoted without a time frame.
  • Tiny, thinly traded companies that can spike on mailings.

Before you buy any teased stock

Check the writer's track record, size your position with our risk calculator and read our investing guides.
