Another Reason To Get The ShoeMoney News Letter – MONEY Stock Tips

In the August 1st issue of the ShoeMoney Newsletter I gave my first stock pick ValueClick (VCLK) and justified why I liked it so much. I also purchased 1,000 shares of the stock. Evidently many newsletter readers did also as I have been getting a ton of emails thanking me for the tip. In less then 1 month the stock is already up over 20% (click image for full shot).

What will be the big tip that will be in the September 1st newsletter? You will have to wait and see! Make sure you are signed up to the Newsletter so you do not miss anything.

    From affiliate marketer to stock guru?

  11. jim of Blueprint for Financial Prosperity

    I’ve been getting a lot of post listings but nothing else, am I missing something?

  12. Bonie

    wow thats fantastic, when I like that ? hehe…

  13. Goran Website

    I’ve been away for a while so have missed out. Joining now, sure its awesome.

  14. Marco

    Here in the UK people are not allowed to give financial advice on investments unless they are qualified to do so.

    They have to have taken a finacial planning &/or be registered with certain financial authorities.

    I wonder if it is the same in the US?

  15. Erica DeWolf

    Already signed up for your newsletter- appreciate the stock advice! I’ve been thinking about getting into stocks a lot lately- just need to produce enough money to start off with.

  16. cheap used cars

    I have signed up twice but haven’t gotten any newsletters :-( yes i looked in the spam folder.

  17. Goran Website

    Wow that’s amazing. Well I am also currently learning about the stock market and trade as I’d like to manage my own retirement portfolio, well in conjuction with one that’s handled by professionals ofcourse, just so that I don’t lose everything should make a real bad investment dive in the future. :-)

  18. Justin Cook

    Thus far I’ve been too conservative and timid to get into the stock market. I guess maybe with your tips I might have the confidence to slowly work my way into it. But I’d still like to do my research first.

    Any good books you can recommend?

  19. Agent Magenta

    Whats going on with the newsletter? All I get is the syndication email as well. Should I sign up again?

  20. Tate

    %20 in one month !!! WOW !!!
    I had about a $100 worth of a local company in dubai and all they made me was a low $32 a year.

    anyways, the new blog design has a few errors in IE6, especially in the part between the post and the footer.

  21. Winning Startups

    I’m so not into stock tips. Beating the market is a fool’s game. It’s all about diversification – a certain percentage should go into international stock funds, domestic stock funds, and bonds. Additionally each person should have an emergency fund set aside. If you want to take ten percent of your money or less and put it in an individual stock, so be it, but most people trying to beat the market don’t do that and lose their shirts.

  22. alifahru

    I am learning about stock. it is good chance to get it

  23. Dick

    Incidentally, I liked the new format of the site. Looks fresh.

  24. Cullen Powell

    I signed up for the Shoemoney Newsletter (or so I thought) when you advertised it in one of your posts, but all I ever received was the occasional syndication of your blog posts…not sure what happened there but I’ve since opted-out.

  25. SP

    I would like to see more stock picks.

  26. Owais

    I am very good in stocks and shares. So best of luck all of you.

  27. Agent Magenta

    In response to Shoe being lucky – I think you make your own luck, people might think Shoe is lucky, but really what he is doing is making some smart informed choices. Being able to spot an oppurtunity is what makes you ‘lucky’

  28. Agent Magenta

    20% return in one month is excellent. Showe you right that many people still dont get the ‘buy low sell high concept’ and just go with the herd. Sometimes you have to trust your judgement and go against the flow.

  29. Kevin Moses

    Hi everyone

    I have a question. Are there any programs other than Adsense, that can help you generate money with click throughs?

    Thanks Kevin

  30. joe

    Fail. vclk started falling when performics changed its name to google affiliate network. Google’s entry to the affiliate market is the beginning of CJ’s end. The company was an aquisition target but now it’s just a target.

  31. Travel blog

    I am not able to quote a comment, Which i was previously able to. :(
    any problem with me ?

  32. SawanM

    Lucky Shoe, nice one on the stocks!

    Big player, now start counting cards (21)

  33. Arjen

    Okay, I am in. Make me miljonair (too).

  34. Travel blog

    oh, i missed the 1st newletter… i am subscribed now.
    is there any archieve of newletters ?

  35. jim

    I sense a pump and dump scheme! haha just kidding.

  36. samn

    Cool new design — i like everything about it… except… Your new “Shoemoney” logo!!! I liked the old font. Apart from that good job ;-)

  37. Melvin

    hey jeremy, i think the old theme still looks better… I mean the former one has a larger space and a “reply to a thread” in comments.. this one looks nce but maybe the former one for me is better..

  38. Le Melon

    @Dom
    Oops! I think I missed a sentence out of there, my bad! Dunno why I said that..

  39. Elite Blogger

    Hehehe, nice one Shoe.

  40. Dice

    Rackspace just went to public. I wonder if they’re worth investing in.

  41. Dude

    Btw… Shoe, did you really purchase the stock… or made a “virtual purchase”? (And where/how you buy stocks if I may ask?)

  42. StartBreakingFree.com

    Shoe, I normally enjoy reading your stuff, but recommending stock tips is bad news dude. It’s gambling. People who spend their entire careers analyzing stocks and have phd’s in math are right about 55% of the time.

    To speculate on stocks with your own money is one thing if you enjoy that sort of thing, but yur gonna end up gambling wrong one of these times (after all, how much control do you really have over a publicly traded company) and yur gonna lose a bunch of other people’s money. Proceed with caution.

    “nexperienced stock buyers are like drivers without a drivers license..”… except that unlicensed drivers hurt other people, how do inexperienced stock buyers do that? I wonder.

  44. Rek

    Wow I never knew there was such thing as Google Finance :|

  45. Matt Leo

    The best way to invest and make money is to go with what you know. If you are familiar with an industry you can do well. I still kick myself everyday for not pulling the trigger on $10k of GOOG at the IPO ($87 I think it was) like I was so close to doing.

  46. techdude

    20% is DEFINITELY NOT a bad return! Happy earnings Shoe!

  47. Enkay Blog

    Good stuff Shoe. I really like the new theme. Looks great!

  48. David

    Sweet, I need some stock tips! Haven’t been doing well lately.
    Also like the new date design on the side of the posts!

  49. Bulbboy

    Richard Farleigh’s (from the UK Dragon’s Den) book on the stock market was pretty good, in which he discusses trends and gives lots of tips.

  50. terminator69

    I signed up.

    So can you buy shares with google finance?

  51. Justin

    The comment system looks nicer!

  52. Rasim

    For some reason when I sign up, it sends me Lorem Ipsum text. I believe you forgot to change it. :)
    “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam,…”

  53. Douglas

    Btw, I like the new design a lot better. It doesn’t look as busy as the old version.

  54. Eric

    David G said: “I thought I read a while back ” I hate the Stock Market” maybe I’m wrong?”

    Ye, I recall that too…. Changing your stance on the stock market Shoe?

  55. Shaun Carter

    Good call Shoe! I’ve just signed up and look forward to your next pick.

  56. David G.

    Shoe,

    I thought I read a while back ” I hate the Stock Market” maybe I’m wrong? Anyway my friend be very careful with “publicly” recommending any investments, you are a celeb now and nothing more that “The Man” likes than making an example of someone like you, BTW Great Call on the Stock.

    Regards,
    David G.

    P.S. You still need to check out “piclens.com”, great tool for you, I think.

  57. Ultimate Blogging Experiment

    I don’t think you got lucky. Man, I think you have mad skills. Don’t let anybody tell you you’re lucky. I get told I am lucky over time but trust me they don’t have a clue.

    • Jaseem Umer

      I think I should post an article in my blog about being lucky.

  58. Billy

    wow a 20% increase in a month nice pick

  59. Melvin

    i am already signed up w/your newsletter… btw, nice theme huh…

  60. Start Blogging

    Nice! I need to get into stocks… never have been interested in it.

  61. D&G

    I wished I had listened to you!
    I thought they were as good as dead, but now I see the 24% jump…
    Nicely done mister Shoemoney!

  62. Nicholas Chase

    Jeremy, I have been out of the stock market for some time. Just did not like riding the roller coaster. Now I’m investing in Blogs and Websites. We’ll see how long my investment takes to pay off. Respectfully, Nicholas http://theipodreviewblog.blogspot.com

  63. ShoeMoney

    @AffiliateSupportTeam

    I highly disagree… this is why most middle and lower class never can get ahead. They invest when the market is at a all time high then sell when it is low. Mean while the rich are going all into various sectors of the stock market and will get a huge return like many times before when the market was down.

    If you would have actually red my article I explained exactly why I liked the stock and how it was a no-brainer. I still think the stock is a good investment <15$.

    Interestingly enough American Funds one of the most stable best returning mutal funds just took a massive position in value click.

  64. Mark C

    I am not a lawyer by any means but it seems that as long as you state that you own the stock it isn’t a problem. Writers for financial magazines and papers disclose this all the time when they write about stocks that they own. Usually they write (disclaimer: I own shares of XYZ Company) or something to that effect.

  65. Dom

    @Le Melon: “If loads of people buy the stock too, it will go down in value”

    Um. Either you typed that wrong or you have absolutely no idea how the stock market works.

    Oh – and I’m not accusing Jeremy of anything, but here in the UK, a journalist for a national newspaper went to jail for buying the stocks they were recommending in their column.

  66. AffiliateSupportTeam

    You have to have a lot of balls to get into stocks at this time. I appreciate you sharing stock tips with your readers Jeremy, but a lot of people don’t have any experience or the first clue when it comes to stocks.

    If you don’t know what you’re doing and just buy because somebody says it’s a good buy – stay the hell away from it. Inexperienced stock buyers are like drivers without a drivers license..

  67. Zack

    Missed the first newsletter somehow, but I look forward to the next one.

    • Jaseem Umer

      Is Shoemoney newsletter worth it. I haven’t subscribed yet.

  68. Le Melon

    @Dom – If loads of people buy the stock too, it will go down in value so it doesn’t work in Jeremy’s favour.

    @Jonathan – That’s what I’m wondering..

  69. Jonathan Volk

    Do you think the stock is still worth investing into even though it’s up 20% already?

    That’s the question!!! :)

  70. Dom

    Isn’t this kind of manipulation of share prices (publishing a recommendation of a stock and buying it yourself) illegal in the US?

  71. CREATESOMFING

    u got me! i will sign up..

  72. WebTrafficROI

    I am signing righ now Shoey

  73. CREATESOMFING

  74. ShoeMoney

    @wesley all my life I keep hearing about how lucky I am =P. Maybe I just have skills to pay the bills!

  75. joe

    I think Pets.com stock is getting ready to really move.

  76. Le Melon

    $2630 in one month!
    I know it’s nothing compared to your other earnings but… damn! Nice going! You should’ve said “almost 25%” – sounds more impressive :D

  77. wesley

    Well, you could have just gotten lucky :) Now, if you can pick those stocks consistently… :)

  78. Tom

    woo, u got me there!

  79. Storm

    Hehe, will we see advertising for Forex anytime soon!

    Quite like the blog revamp, although some parts are looking a little busy now. IMO the SUBSCRIBE VIA RSS etc column doesnt quite sit right.

    Anyway, great to see you working on the design a bit.

  80. Vikingblogger

    Hehe – nice pick Shoe! Missed the first newsletter, but have signed up now, and I’m all ready for your hot tips.

    Staale aka VikingBlogger
