I have been a member of Brownstone Research since August 2020 starting with their entry-level portfolio of The Near Future Report (TNFR). I have made a profit from Jeff's recommendations in the TNFR, a few percentage points above the overall market, but my gains stop there. I signed up for an additional portfolio in early January. Then with a month of calls and emails asking for a credit to be applied to Brownstone Unlimited, I gained access to all the portfolios. On every portfolio other than TNFR, I lost, especially with Jeff's biotech recommendations. I have endured losses of up to 60% and 70%. Early Stage Trader (EST) is definitely not a Trading Service despite what Jeff writes in the manifesto. His weekly writeups now for EST stress that he doesn't believe in trading these stocks. That is absolutely not what I signed up for. Jeff hangs on despite huge losses, bad clinical trial results, delay of clinical results, financial results which don't meet analyst expectations, VC funding which depletes stock value, and surprise resignation of key personnel. He glosses over any potential weaknesses of the companies he recommends in his analyst reports and has an excuse for every problem. I think his attitude about the pandemic and lockdowns color his recommendations in opposition to how the market has reacted. Jeff recommended (for no reason that I read except to record a gain) we sell one pandemic-related stock with a respectable gain. Then it more than doubled. His portfolio Blank Check Speculator (BCS) is another loss for me. Almost all BCS recommendations are at a loss today, with some warrant losses as high as -60%. There are a few marginal gains of 1-2%.The recommended SPAC's have not announced deals as fast as Jeff eluded to and the entire SPAC market is down yet Jeff recommends we hang on and continue to buy more SPACs. Overall, my gains in TNFR have equaled my losses in the other portfolios and I have divested nearly everything except what I hold from TNFR. He cites semi-annual catalysts that will "explode" EST stock prices (his words). They whimper and fall. BCS cited merger announcements in as early as 4-5 months that would cause gains. Hasn't happened. Jason Bodner writing for Outlier Investor cites a nine-month sweet spot for gains. The only stocks with monster gains go back to 2018 & 2019. His recommendations in 2021 are at an average loss. My gains in the combined Brownstone portfolios over the last year are 4.5% and that stinks compared to the market. I cannot recommend the purchase of any portfolios other than TNFR. Jeff's background is in high tech and I think that's where he...
Read moreAs a longtime subscriber to Near Future, and Exponential Tech, and now a Brownstone Unlimited subscriber, I can attest that Jeff Brown has been my guide and tech guru par excellance. I have had enormous successes following Jeff's lead. Most recently, his BEAM reco has my position up over 450%. Longer term holdings: CRSP up 332%, EDIT up192%, SKWS up 138%, TSM up 135%, TWLO up over 1500%. And NVDA which i have sold off some shares twice, but still hold 8.3 shares as a free ride, has returned over $14,000, on a $4,000 original investment.
Technology is not my field, so I rely on Jeff's advantageous, long term succesful knowledge in this deep field, so foreign to me.
I've subscribed to many other analysts' services, but as you can see from the above still open positions, none of the other publications even come close. I could add to the above list many successfully closed positions, such as Tucows. Those wins are but a fading memory. However, the funds so gained are now growing in some of the above winning open positions.
If you have been considering subscribing to Brownstone, you owe it to your future success to waste no more time, and sign up now.

Read moreI never requested information from this company,, nor have I ever done business with them. I have continuously been flooded by them with long unsolicited emails, and every attempt to get them to stop has been ignored. I have for the past 15 days straight ordered them to stop sending their unsolicited propaganda, all of which has been ignored. I will not do business with any company this desperate for customers, and that shows such a lack of respect for the law.
Update... I think they finally got the message, after I threatened to file suit and they forwarded the matter to their attorney, who I did battle with back and forth all week until he finally confirmed that they would cease and desist sending me daily unsolicited emails! It only took from approximately July until September to get them to comply with the law! Isn’t it interesting that they have absolutely ZERO 0 positive reviews! And their address that comes up in Google Maps looks like an apartment building to me? I’M JUST SAYING! Again, any company this desperate to get customers is not one that I will EVER do...
