Extreme Retirement Plan offers World’s
Most Valuable Asset
In this report: The best place to put your money for the next 3 years (our most recent Extreme Retirement play).
PLUS: The secret of why a $5,000 stake in all of our picks since 2002 would now be worth $191,969 (as of Jan. 2007) – and how you can make the same.
Dear Reader,
Do you know about the Extreme Retirement Plan?
Paul Dickson, 78, used it to raise nearly half a million dollars recently. This note he sent tells the full story...
“Extreme retirement has helped to almost double my holdings in the past 2 ½ years, from $500,000 to $950,000. Thank you.”
Wesley Calleran, from Ohio, has also taken advantage. He writes:
“I have probably achieved gains of about $250,000 on Extreme retirement plays. As a group, these investments have about doubled during that same time period. Keep up the good work!”
Both are members of a small group of people who use a unique and little-known investment strategy developed by Dan Ferris, my friend, colleague and one of the single most outstanding stock analysts I know.
Dan’s strategy works by finding “Extreme Value” situations. Each situation differs from the next, but they all share one thing in common:
If you get in early, Extreme Value investments all have strong potential to double or even triple your money – with extremely low risk. That’s why as of this writing (Jan. 2007), there are 36 recommendations in our “Extreme Value” portfolio... and 34 are showing a gain.
In fact, Dan’s Extreme Value strategy has delivered an incredible 53% average return for the past 4 years running. Enough to turn a $5,000 stake in all of our picks since 2002 into $191,969 (as of Jan. 2007)...
That’s why Dan’s strategy offers an “Extreme” Retirement Plan...
Just by taking a small position in each of Dan’s recommended Extreme Value plays, you may be able to raise enough money, safely and cheaply, to pay for your retirement. Many of his readers are doing just that.
Dan’s most recent Extreme Value play is a company that owns “the world’s most valuable asset.” As a result, the stock could offer you a 100% upside in the next 3 years – with very low risk (Dan compares it to a U.S. Treasury bond).
In fact, Dan predicts this company will out-perform its competition for decades to come... making it one of the best investments in the world.
He recommends you buy and hold it indefinitely.
Let me explain...
The Oldest Blue Chip Stock in America
You’ve almost certainly heard of this blue-chip company...
It’s one of the oldest companies in America – it started over 150 years ago – and has been growing so fast it now controls a global network of more than 271,000 branches in more than 200 countries.
Like the majority of Blue Chips – when you put your money into this company, you can almost guarantee every cent will appreciate...
Why? Because Blue Chips dominate their industries.
But this company goes one step further. Its brand name is one of the most recognized brands in the world. It has very little competition. That means it offers you an extra margin of safety while boosting your potential return.
In a recent international scientific study, for example, 81% of those surveyed had “spontaneous brand awareness” of the company’s name.
In other words, the company is seen as being identical to the service it offers (for example, “Kleenex” and “Coke.”) It has two and a half times as many locations in 30 more countries than its competitor, making it hands-down #1.
The best part is: This company is still expanding – fast.
Its operating profit has increased EVERY YEAR from 2003 to 2005 – and just last year, one of its newest ventures became a $100 million business, which has grown in revenue and transactions at the rate of 40% a year.
The fact is, this Blue Chip outfit is one of the single most promising companies in America. Even better: Attention surrounding it has grown recently...
As Barron’s reports: This company “could deliver some nice rewards for investors.”
Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, the Los Angeles
Times and the Economist have all profiled this company recently.
Dan has been researching this company for the past 3 months. As he explained in his most recent Extreme Value report:
“Moody’s generates a 56% return on tangible capital... I expect this company to perform like Moody’s... That kind of performance will double your money about every three years... Opportunities to buy a business this good for less than [where it trades today] are rare. You should load up on this stock and forget about it for years.”
Here’s why...
This Blue Chip operates globally – providing the world with an integral service.
It does a million transactions a day, about 12 EVERY SECOND. In 2005, it made
119 million consumer-to-consumer transactions and 215 million transactions for consumer-to-business.
It’s no surprise... This company is literally everywhere.
Just consider the range of clients who have already made deals with this firm:
- Kroger (America’s third-largest retail chain making $60 billion in sales last year)
- 7-Eleven (operator of largest chain of convenience stores in 18 countries, including U.S., Canada, China, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia).
- Eckerd Pharmacy (one of America’s largest drug store chains – stores in more than 1,540 locations across 13 states).
- Safeway (North America’s second largest supermarket chain – a Fortune 500 company with more than 1,800 stores in U.S. and Canada).
What makes this company so popular? As Dan recently explained in his Extreme Value report, it owns “the World’s Most Valuable Asset.”
Put simply: This overlooked asset allows the company to dominate its industry... expand... and smother competition. As Dan explains: “It’s the only thing that will both keep your money safe and cause it to compound at high rates of return for a long time.”
But, amazingly, the stock is still incredibly cheap. And that’s what makes this company an “Extreme Value” play. It’s loaded with so much value its stock is trading for 32% LESS than what it’s actually worth.
In other words: This investment carries less risk.
Here’s what I mean...
It’s because of “extreme value” situations like this that our portfolio has delivered a 53% average return for the past 4 years. Enough to turn a $5,000 stake in all of our picks since 2002 into $191,969 (as of Jan. 2007)...
And it’s also why 34 of our 36 current Extreme Value stocks have gone up in value. In fact, our average open gain is 58% (as of Jan. 2007).
Our readers have seen gains of...
- 123% on Gateway (GTW)
- 110.6% on Blair (BL)
- 98% on Consolidated Tomoka (CTO)
- 97.6% on Circuit City (CC)
- 94.7% on JAKKs Pacific (JAKK), just to name a few.
What is an “Extreme Value” situation? Let me show you...
A few years ago, Dan flew to the island of Maui, rented a car, and toured 37,000 acres of sugarcane fields owned by a company called Alexander & Baldwin.
Afterward, Dan went to the Maui County Real Property Assessment Division – where he found 242 tax records filed under Alexander & Baldwin’s name. What he discovered was remarkable...
The real assets owned by the company were selling on the stock market for a fraction of what they really cost.
Specifically: The company owns 90,600 acres of Hawaiian land, most of it on the islands of Maui and Kauai. But Dan discovered that almost all of it is carried on the company’s books at its original average cost of just $150 an acre. Today, some of that land is worth in excess of $1 million per acre...
That’s an “Extreme Value” situation.
(Prices below as of Jan. 2007... )
Dan immediately recommended this rarely publicized company to his group of Extreme Value readers... Since then, the stock is up 134%, with a long way yet to go before it reaches full value.
- Here’s another example: Dan once spent an entire week analyzing 2,901 different companies. He discovered a company called KHD Humboldt Wedag, that owns a royalty interest in a massive, extremely undervalued iron-ore mine in Newfoundland.
Today, readers who followed Dan’s recommendation to buy this company have seen gains of 211%.
- That same week, after meeting with the manager of an exclusive asset management firm focused on high-net worth individuals, Dan discovered another “Extreme Value” investment situation – a company called American Real Estate Partners, that owns a chain of hotels and resorts.
So far, his readers have seen 409% gains on this company.
- A month later, by gaining access to a restricted mutual fund run by one of the most recognized managers in the world, Dan found a company called EnCana Corp., which owns over 25 million acres of oil-rich land selling at $30 less per share than what the stock was actually worth.
He wrote to his readers about this oil-drilling company immediately, and readers who bought shares have made 127% gains.
All three of these situations are what Dan calls an “Extreme Value” play, because the company’s assets are worth considerably more than its share price...
In other words – When you buy “Extreme Value” investments, you’re buying the safest, cheapest stocks in the entire market. Every investment has a built in safety net – because the assets the company owns are worth more than the stock price!
Our most recent Extreme Value play – the blue chip company I just described – offers the same outstanding benefit.
If this sounds like the kind of investment you’re interested in, here’s what I recommend you do...
The Only Proven Way to Get Rich
in the Stock Market
My name is George Rayburn.
I’m the publisher of Extreme Value, an investment advisory that focuses on the safest, cheapest stocks in the market – “value” situations like the one I’ve been telling you about.
If you are interested in getting the full details on the investment idea I’ve told you about here, I encourage you to try a subscription to Extreme Value.
When you do, you’ll receive the full details in the new January 2007 issue by Dan Ferris, our Extreme Value editor and chief research analyst.
If you’ve never heard of the “extreme value” strategy before, I’m not surprised. Most people haven’t...
But we’ve been using this strategy for the past 4 years to find the absolute best, safest, most overlooked “value” investment situations in the world, for a small group of in-the-know investors...
The truth is – it’s the only proven way to really get rich in the stock market. This investment strategy has been used by the most well-known, successful investors in the world... including Warren Buffett of Berkshire Hathaway (the 2nd richest man in the world, according to Forbes) and the late William Ruane ($10,000 in his Sequoia Fund at inception would be worth $1.7 million today).
Let me tell you about another extreme-valued retirement play we uncovered recently...
California has a secret new oil supply...
And it’s located in downtown Los Angeles.
Here, hidden beneath 900 acres of land off La Cienega Boulevard, is an oil field so deep it produces enough crude oil to fill the tanks of 5,500 SUVs every day – based on a recent estimate reported in The Los Angeles Times.
In all, there’s 688 MILLION barrels of oil. Untapped. Right in the middle of downtown Los Angeles.
If you happen to live or work in Los Angeles, you may have already heard about this unusual situation...
But what you may not know is that one small oil-drilling company owns all the rights to this field, including the “X-ray”-style 3D technology that now makes it possible to extract about 200 million barrels successfully.
Full-scale drilling has now begun beyond the shallow test zones and into the deeper oil (already yielding 6,900 barrels of crude oil a day).
Bottom-line: One of the biggest secret oil discoveries in California is about to make a tiny oil-drilling company very big, very fast.
If the company extracts just one-third of the potential oil in the ground, its total revenue should expand by a factor of 18 – making it a multibillion-dollar outfit.
If you’re a shareholder when the full story hits the mainstream press over the next few months, you could make a fortune...
In my recent Research Report called The Los Angeles Oil Discovery, I’ll tell you everything I learned about this oil discovery at a private meeting I attended in Los Angeles... and how a small stake today could make you 350% gains.
Best of all, when you take a trial subscription to Extreme Value, you'll get a copy of The Los Angeles Oil Discovery, absolutely free.
Let me tell you a little more about “Extreme Value” investing, so you can decide if you want to have a look at our work...
How to Beat the Stock Market by 189%
After four years, we’ve learned that the “Extreme Value” strategy offers the single best, safest way to make money. As I mentioned earlier, as of January 2007:
Our Extreme Value portfolio has delivered a 53% average return for the past 4 years– turning a $5,000 stake in all of our picks since 2002 into $191,969 (as of Jan. 2007) ...
Put simply: When you buy extreme-valued investments, you’re buying the safest and most profitable stocks in the entire market.
This was proven in several studies – most notably in a 1992 study in The Journal of Finance, the most respected journal in its field.
The study was done by two well-known economists, Ken French and Eugene Fama (nominated for a Nobel Prize in Economics), who studied the prices and performance of every stock on the NYSE, the American Stock Exchange, and the Nasdaq from mid-1963 through 1990.
What they found was incredible...
The economists discovered that the cheapest 10% of stocks – “value” stocks that trade at a discount to their total assets – returned an average of 21.4% each year, for over 24 years.
This study also found that these kinds of safe, cheap stocks brought 189% higher returns per year than the markets – performing especially well during bear markets. Riskier, more expensive “growth” stocks, in the same time period, returned just 8%.
This proved that Value Stocks – the cheapest 10% of all stocks – make the most money in the stock market. Take a look:
But these two well-known economists weren’t the only researchers who studied why this investment strategy has been so successful...
Forbes magazine has investigated it as well, reporting that: “Since 1965, [value stocks] have appreciated 13,315%, versus an increase of 767% for the Dow Jones industrial average.”
But I have a confession...
Please Be Advised:
Extreme Value may not be right for you.
It’s not for the average person.
Extreme Value readers tend to be hands-off, patient folks who want to invest for the long term... and expect staggering returns as a result.
In the majority of cases, that means putting your money into a company your broker may not know about... with little-to-no coverage on Wall Street... and then forgetting about it for months at a time...
For example: Back in 2002, we wrote to our readers about a small Pennsylvania-based company called Blair, that sells women’s apparel. Nobody had ever heard of it... But we were able to determine that Blair offered one of the best discounted stocks on the market...
Readers who held their nose and bought shares of this “boring” company more than doubled their money, for a 110.6% gain.
Here’s another example: Our research team traveled to Florida and toured hundreds of acres of timberland owned by a company called Consolidated Tomoka. All told, it owns a total of 250,000 acres of trees, worth three times more than what it was selling for.
We wrote to our readers about this company immediately, saying: “The worst you can do is double your money.” We were right. Since we added it to our Extreme Value portfolio, the stock is up 168%, as of January 2007.
The point is – if you’re looking for the “next hot trend” or hot new technology, I can tell you right now: Extreme Value is not for you.
That said, the companies we add to the Extreme Value portfolio all have one thing in common: If you get in early, they should all double or even triple your money – with extremely low risk.
But how can you be sure Extreme Value is right for you? Here’s what I propose...

How much does one year of Extreme Value cost?
Before I give you all of the specifics, let me tell you about another extreme-valued Blue Chip stock – this one could make you 100% gains in 18 months...
for the Next 10 Years
Most investors know about the greatest extreme-value Blue Chip in America.
Fortune magazine says: “[It has] changed the world.”
Century Management founder and president Arnold Van Den Berg says, “It’s an amazing situation.”
Time magazine, Businessweek, PC magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times have all profiled this company recently.
It’s not hard to see why...
Just consider the list of clients who have already made deals with this firm, to use their technology:
- The U.S. Government (most recent deal took place on July 13, 2006)
- IBM (one of the world’s biggest information technology companies – $88 billion in revenue last year)
- Dell (PC giant – $57 billion in revenue)
- Intel (world’s leading producer of semiconductor chips – $37 billion in revenue last year)
Even more amazing is how fast this company has grown...
Just by offering stock options, this innovative tech outfit has turned 3,000 of its employees – regular Joes who work from 9 to 5 – into millionaires.
Dan has been researching this company for the past 4 months. As he explains in a recent Special Report:
My advice to you is simple. BUY [this investment] with as much money as you can spare, and then forget about it. When you get some more money, buy more. I think you could buy this company and totally forget about investing for at least 5 years, and longer. It should beat inflation, maintain its value, and continue to outperform all the competition for decades to come.
Everything you need to know about this company is included in a Special Report called The Blue Chip Portfolio.
Best of all, you’ll receive this new research free of charge when you give Extreme Value a no-risk trial today. As you’ll see, this Special Report also includes reports on 5 other outstanding blue chip stocks – written by True Wealth editor Dr. Steve Sjuggerud and S&A Investment Research founder Porter Stansberry.
So how much does a one-year subscription to Extreme Value cost?
Let me make something clear...
As part of our research, we subscribe to 23 different publications and services – including The Wall Street Journal... Barron’s... Grant’s... SmartMoney... Outstanding Investor Digest... Los Angeles Business Journal... Technology Review... Value Investor Insight... Fortune... Forbes... Schiff’s Insurance Observer... and Spin-off Advisors’ Spin-off Research...
You name it, we probably read it.
It costs us $26,000 a year for all this material.
We spend even more attending private investment conferences – such as Grant’s Interest Rate Observer... Schiff’s Insurance Observer... and the Value Investing Congress, to name a few.
We travel extensively... When we wanted to research alternative energy a while back, our editor and chief research analyst Dan Ferris visited research labs and company headquarters all over the Northwest... in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and California...
Dan meets with people like Mohnish Pabrai (an investment manager whose fund has grown from $1 million to $218 million and was featured in Forbes magazine as having out-performed Warren Buffett for four straight years. “I read Extreme Value every month,” he told us recently).
Of course, all this research is what makes our job exciting...
... but also very expensive, month after month, and year after year.
So Extreme Value isn’t cheap. But then, this isn’t just another $99 newsletter written by a stock-picker who sits behind his computer clicking a mouse all day...
If that’s what you’re looking for, I’ll tell you again: Extreme Value is probably not for you. We’re only interested in researching the kind of little-known investment opportunities you’ll never hear about anywhere else... companies that could help you put your kid through college... pay for retirement... or buy a vacation home.
And as you might expect, finding those companies is why we spend so much time and energy in our research.
Extreme Value costs $1,000 for one full year.
Is the price worth it? I think so... Think of it this way: Investors pay hedge fund managers tens of thousands of dollars to get a 15% to 20% return in a year.
You can pay a fraction of that amount – and get recommendations that return, on average, over 50%.
Our Extreme Value readers agree...
“Is Extreme Value worth the $1,000 subscription price?” asked a potential subscriber on our online message board recently. “I am on a limited investment budget.”
A paid-up subscriber wrote back...
“Extreme Value is willing to do the digging and analysis that no one else I've ever read is willing to do. [Dan’s] picks comprise a "gone fishing" portfolio in itself. The [recommendations] possess so much value, and have already done so well, that I hope to pass them on to my children, should I never have a reason to sell them.
Is it worth $1,000? That’s your call, but my subscription paid for itself handily. Hope this helps.”
When you give Extreme Value a no-risk trial today, you’ll receive:
