Dear Mr Doody,
I want to thank you for giving great advice. I’m 85 years old and have been investing for over 50 years. You have been the only financial advisor who enabled me to make some real money in the stock market. About six or seven years ago I subscribed to your Gold Stock Analyst letter. Over a two -year period I sold all my other stocks and bought $500,000 of the 10 gold and 5 silver mining stocks you recommended. This year, I’ve sold $500,000 of stock and still have about $1,000,000 of mining stocks. I didn’t discover your Fave 5
until September of 2025 but have made over $100,000 on your Fave 5 recommendations since then.”

Porter: Thank you so much for having John Doody as your guest. I had lost track of him after he was no longer a contributor to Stansberry Research. He did make me a lot of money in sleep-well-at-night investments. Then I lost track of him. Most likely I missed the move to his new service since I get hundreds of emails a day. John Doody was the first person to get me into gold investing, and it is the core to my investing. Now I can get back on track with him!
Lastly (Porter), keep the great information coming. You have made me millions.

Hello Porter and Aaron: Thanks for the podcast interview of John Doody. I had not looked for him, as I thought he truly had retired. I am happy to know that I can subscribe to his work, and have done so today.
With regard to his previous newsletter, I still hold seven of his recommendations that I bought in late 2018, 2019. The majority of these are up at least 500-600%, and I have taken profits on several occasions. All are currently “ all house money”. My previous Kirkland Lake stock now exists as Agnico Eagle.
At one point, John wrote that he was 100% invested in gold. It was an audacious move at the time, I thought. As it turns out, gold has become the center circle of my portfolio as well.
Thanks for all you do

Praise from Industry Luminaries
"I've always enjoyed reading John Doody's research. It's terrific – comprehensive, accurate, honest, and succinct. He's been one of the very best mining analysts in the world," Pan American Silver founder Ross Beaty said when asked for his thoughts on John's retirement. "GSA was always refreshingly different from most others... It was packed with good information, full of John's iconic wisdom, and a great companion for any investor interested in gold companies big and small."
"John's also a really nice guy, and I'm very proud to have known him for so many years. I wish him well." Beaty added, "I hope he still comes to some of the mining conferences I go to, so I'll still be able to keep in touch with him."

John put his subscribers first. He wanted to deliver the best possible recommendations to his investors. This made John independent in a business that is all too often serving other interests. I can tell you that he consistently asked the right questions and focused on the right issues, always diligent and willing to get into the details. I have fond memories of his last property visit which was to our Kerr-Sulphurets-Mitchell ("KSM") project in northwest British Columbia. He wanted to see it for himself.
John was unafraid to take a different view of the market, the industry, and individual companies. Many analysts are afraid to break from the pack. They give you the consensus opinion because it is safe. John was never like that. You always knew you were getting the straight goods, honestly and directly, as he understood them.
