Elecosoft - not only has the main guy gone but also, for reasons unexplained, the auditor has changed. More Red flags vicar?

As you know we  have been big bears of AIM promote Elecosoft (ELCO). There were so many red flags when we published a major bear report HERE including Stockopedia of Wirecard, Globo & Quindell infamy having it as atop pick, Vox Markets promotion and highly aggressive accounting. They mounted when ElecoSoft started threatening legal action. Since then the chairman and founder has walked and now this.

Life-Saving Technology for Medics Could Bring Joy for Feedback Investors – at Last

Hello, Share Followers. A company for which I have high hopes still to be realised is Feedback plc (FDBK). On the face of it this AIM company which enables doctors and surgeons to see what’s going on in the human body should enjoy a buoyant share price. Yet it’s been disappointing for some time now. However, with much more focus on medical services these days, perhaps its time has come…

SAE

Simec Atlantis Energy- I was wrong (in part), but remain right!

I wrote last week about Simec Atlantis Energy (SAE) and the delay in determining the Uskmouth Power Station consents. I highlighted the delay in determination of the Natural Resource Wales (NRW) consent and any positive determination would then be followed by the Planning Application process. I was inadvertently wrong – the planning application is in and running and hence it is only appropriate I correct a matter of fact and what changes in my opinion as a consequence.

As you can see here, I shall be engaging in a small act of defiance tonight.  In the podcast I discuss UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) - forced by myself to ‘fess up today about what is happening at the Gatwick Dribbler.

Lobo Tiggre was one of the stars of the MineProphets conference and his take on the state of the Western real economies is grim. He makes our own Nigel Somerville seem cheery.

Trainline: Dire Interims bring us back to the share dumping by soon to be ex CEO Claire Gilmartin

Today, Trainline (TRN) has served up utterly dismal results for the six months to August 31. They are shocking and indicate that things will get worse and need to be taking in the context of the scandalous behaviour of soon to be ex CEO Claire Gilmartin.

Pathfinder Minerals – More hands in the cookie jar for crony capitalists

Advisors to AIM listed companies get paid fees. Moolah. Money. Hard cash to spend on coke and hookers.  That is the way of the world. But, for some folks, that is not enough.

Comrade Bailey chastises the special dividend at Sainsbury's

A rare one for you today as I wrap myself in a red flag and criticise a company juxtaposing a special dividend with job losses. The company in question is Sainsbury (SBRY), where I am actually a loyal shopper and would heartily recommend its online delivery capabilities – which I have tapped for the first time in recent months. However for all its capabilities there, I think it has bogged up with the combination of the announcement of necessarily high profile job losses at the Argos division and the announcement of a special dividend…

Maybe it’s Time to Set Your Compass in Favour of this Recovering Catering Giant

Hello, Share Clampers. A company which has always commanded my unswerving loyalty, ever since it owned Yorkshire Television in the last century, is the big caterer Compass (CPG). But, of course, mass catering, especially in works canteens, has taken a massive hit with Covid. Nevertheless, I think this respected giant should soon recover. It has money reserves available to cope with most viral disasters…
