Next plc continues to show how to be a sensible retailer despite all the obvious challenges out there
Back in September 2021, I observed that it was the “same old, same old ‘not cheap but quality’ at Next plc (NXT)”. But the stock was kicking around at an eighty quid share price then, whilst a c. sixty quid share price (or below) was always a much smarter level to get involved. And hopefully some of you have done so over the last six months or so, a point reinforced by the observation today that Next plc’s full year profit before tax guidance has been raised “by £20m to £860m, up +4.5% versus last year".

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: the mystery of the Midas Harland and Wolff share tip
I start with a bit about weather, snow rain and drought. Then gold vs bitcoin, Enwell (ENW), Ferrexpro (FXPO), Harland & Wolff (HAWL), Argo Blockchain (ARB), Powerhouse Energy (PHE) and Pantheon Resources (PANR) before ending with Vast Resources (VAST) where a placing at 0.1p is surely being attempted after today's incomplete news.- By Tom Winnifrith |

OUTSIDE ALL PAYWALLS: Letter to AIM Regulation – were Bidstack’s pre placing interims bogus & misleading? Enquiry needed now!
Yesterday there was an admission from Bidstack (BIDS) that its soon to be former business partner Azerion had terminated the venture and had not been paying invoices for some time. This begs the question: were interims released on August 8 2022 bogus and designed purely to pump the shares ahead of the 5 October bailout placing. I have written to AIM Regulation demanding it launch an enquiry.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

Just why does ADVFN put up with this Jew hating conspiracy theorist & shite investor in Bidstack and other frauds
It is a sign of just how much, to its credit, the largely Jewish board of ADVFN (AFN) really does believe in free speech that it still allows the biggest jew hating nutter out their to pollute its boards. But surely there must be a limit? The post below is from yesterday and concerns Bidstack (BIDS) where aidenabettin is long and wrong and insists that any share price weakness is down to a conspiracy between myself and unnamed Israelis.The post is below the words in bold type are brief comment from me:

HeiQ – “continued to execute on its long-term growth strategy”, did that include a multi-year trading warning then?!
Previously writing on “materials and textile innovation” company HeiQ plc (HEIQ), in October with the shares at 72p I noted receivables and cash generation concerns and concluded to certainly avoid. The shares are currently slumping to well below 30p on the back of a “Trading Update and Acquisition” announcement.

BREAKING: Ukraine gets ready to steal assets of Enwell Energy
You are not allowed to say this these days but Ukraine is an incredibly corrupt country, normally ranking 2nd in Europe after Russia for dishonesty. So let me first say Slava Ukraini and that we should carry on sending UK taxpayers cash to President Zelensky’s Swiss bank account for as long as he wants. That was a joke BYW. Back to Enwell Energy (ENW) which looks to be well and truly in the merde.- By Tom Winnifrith |

BDO LLP & suspended shares – What is going on?
Historically, it was rare for listed companies to delay publication of their audited results. However, it is becoming more common for UK listed companies to have to delay the publication of audited accounts because their auditors have not yet completed their audit work. In the event of severe delays this can result in the suspension of their shares. I have listed below 4 companies which have had to delay the publication of their audited accounts and have had their shares suspended from trading as a result.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Rising Cost of Living Puts the Mockers on Togs but Not with this Spanish Giant
Hello Share Trundlers. Despite its techno-sounding name, Inditex sells clothes internationally. And this Spain-based giant has been doing rather well. Even in these cheeseparing times for customers. In the first three quarters of 2022, sales rose by a staggering fifth – apparently, the punters liked the autumn/winter collection.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Is this the time that Bidstack's James Draper really does go to jail - questions about the interims
I start with some nerd like comments about river and reservoir levels in North Wales. Bear with me. This will be interesting I promise. Then Bidstack (BIDS) and what questions today's shocker begs about the pre-placing interims. Surely the Nomad ( SPARK) and AIM Regulation must investigate. Then Okyo (OKYO) where post podcast recording the company has published interims on its website. Technically it missed the deadline and the FCA - whose conversations with me I discuss - must take this further. As it happens the interims are truly appalling and red flag strewn as I discuss HERE, Then I discuss Lucian's two big oil shorts: Pantheon Resources (PANR) and Canadian Overseas (COPL). He is right on both IMHO. Finally a few words on Helium One (HE1)- By Tom Winnifrith |
