I have trialled many of the free (for a period of time) and kept records of their views and reocommendations. For shares witih the ASX 200, they do occassionally give some reasonable results, but with a bit of knowledge, time and monitoring, it is not too hard to find a blue chip under valued, or beaten up, which will give a short term low risk gain. Would put WBC in this category at the moment.

The real value I have gained out of these newsletters, is knowledge, and would say most are worth a go if you want to learn.

After much research, I have finally paid the money to ASI and will also join the Drillers and Diggers soon. THese newsletter fit my style of investing the riskier part of my portfolio. I am comfortable buying and selling blue chips to make a few bucks, and use a percentage of my capital on the small caps, and these fellows have enough subsrcibers (and others) to influence the market. So for a day trader, a buy or sell recommendation with either ASI or D and D is a very powerful.

Of course this is only my opinion
