Mayer's Special Situations

About Mayer's Special Situations

Everybody knows that making bigger profits means taking bigger risks. That’s why conservative investors avoid promises of super-sized gains.

But Chris Mayer, the value-minded genius behind Capital & Crisis, is working hard to change that myth. His Mayer’s Special Situations is dedicated to taking you to the edge of risk-versus-reward.

You’ll be surprised how easy it is to enjoy speculative gains without giving up your conservative investment values. Chris only recommends buying stocks with “special situations” — rare events like stock spin-offs, buybacks, turnarounds and much more.

Most investors don’t understand how these things work — or how lucrative they could be. And that gives you a chance to swoop in and buy shares at a bargain-basement price.

Even better, because these are simple stock plays, you never have to worry about taking on too much risk or making complicated plays. And if you think it’s a slow path to profits, guess again. Mayer’s Special Situations readers have watched stocks soar 106% in eight months… 132% in four months… 194% in 13 months… and more!
