I am sure you look at the Rightmove website…but I think you also know why the company’s shares are falling
There were “three distinct housing markets” according to the Rightmove (RMV) management team. Despite the fact that the UK economy has moved away from the comedy part of September/October PM, this week’s Nationwide update shows you the reality. The housing market started 2022 in a very hot mood…which via higher interest rates and much more was not apparent by the end of the year. What does all this mean for Rightmove shares, given millions of people still enjoy looking at the company’s website?- By Chris Bailey |

BREAKING: Eurasia Mining faces dodgy Russians in Court – why no RNS?
And still, after three years, there is no bid for, rapidly running out of money, Eurasia Mining (EUA). There are already more red flags fluttering here than on a May Day parade on Moscow. And talking of dodgy Russians is there any reason why Eurasia has not illuminated us about a court case against some of Putin’s boys?- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

#BoycottHershey – go woke go broke on #InternationalWomensDay
One good reason to boycott the America chocolate company and all its teeth rotting products is that it fired workers in the US who refused to take a covid vaccine. But today its International Women’s Day (March 8) Canadian operation has served up another. Meet Fae Johnstone who has been appointed and paid to be one of its five women ambassadors on this day. Remember this is the socialist, woke hell hole that is Canada. Have you guessed yet?- By Tom Winnifrith |

How is Haleon - the spin-off from GSK plc - getting on?
A busy day on the London market, but I will write about the consumer health company Haleon (HLN), which many of you will remember split out from GSK (GSK) back in July last year. Whilst its shares remain above the level when I last wrote about it in November last year, the stock is down 4% today despite apparently having an "extraordinary year” as being the “first listed company 100% invested” in its specific space.

Haydale – Another Round Of Awful Interims As The Cash Runs Low Yet Again
AIM-listed Haydale (HAYD) – another graphene outfit on AIM besides the disaster that is Versarien (VRS) – announced interims to December 31 this morning. The company boasted adjusted operating losses of £1.89 million, to which my reaction is one of Warren Buffett: who do they think they are deluding – their investors, or themselves? The market was not fooled, marking the stock down marginally.- By Nigel Somerville, the Deputy Sheriff of AIM |

Tom Winnifrith BONUS bearcast: Advanced Oncotherapy, 9 weeks from death & now a full blown death spiral in place AFTER today's £5m financing
Was there any insider dealing before a mid afternoon financing update from Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO). A 32% share price fall suggests that the Pope is also a Catholic. I discuss the new £4.975 million financing which still leaves Advanced only 9 weeks away from running out of cash and the full blown death spiral which cheats its way around par value rules but which will crush the share price.- By Tom Winnifrith |

I am still a Reckitt Benckiser shares fan
I guess it depends how old you are whether brands such as Harpic, Vanish, Dettol and Finish have a lot more relevance for you than Durex or baby food ones, but at least the FTSE 100’s Reckitt (RKT) has a bunch of interesting global brands. I last loved the stock up just over four months ago and since then it has gone almost perfectly sideways. What are the group’s prospects like for 2023 (and beyond)?
