Does anyone on here know of the website "The Investor Place" and Louis Navellier?

Subscribed at a low level to this investor service and it seem all they are doing is trying to get me to subscribe to higher level services. Does anyone know about this guy and his investor service? Can anyone give information as to whether this guy is legit or not? Really beginning to wonder.


TOPICS: Chit/Chat; Education; Miscellaneous
KEYWORDS: investor; louis; navellier; scam
Surely someone knows who he is. He brags on himself a lot.

I don’t know the specific firm, but have worked in investment research and adjacent fields, including investment marketing; I would be extremely wary. Okay, I just clicked through on one of their “premium services”- it was slick, looked shady- there are no overt disclosures but that stuff can be hidden with unrelated parties- IDK it looks identical to paid investor relations marketing campaigns to me. I would stay away, even on their free recommendations.

Sorry. I don’t know him, but if the
Better Business Bureau still exists at all, they should be able to help you verify if this fellow has certain licenses or certifications. For example: Does he have a Series 7 to sell or trade stocks?
Is there any customer talk about him on YELP?
Don’t let him know your full net value, yet, if ever.

I haven’t on the value thing at all. I never reveal that. He claims to have been a Federal Bank Regulator for banks in the San Francisco area.

Bernie Madoff at one time was Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Association of Securities Dealers.

“Surely someone knows who he is. He brags on himself a lot.”

A simple Google search would show that he had to pay a $30 million fine for defrauding investors.

I suggest that you learn to do due diligence. Or just put your money in an index fund.

So has Biden.

I found this. You're right, not a good thing with which to be involved.

That’s the most foolproof investment strategy in existence.

It seems that all investing services use the same format to get membership: Offer a service at a low cost which ultimately doesn’t give you much advice and then try to upgrade your service to a higher priced “superduper” membership.

Navelier actually makes some sense in his daily podcast on the lowest rung of his service memberships, he just doesn’t give much specific info about individual stocks.
