Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Petrofac is free money for the bears and does anyone advising Tern have any conscience?
In today's podcast I discuss Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Nostra Terra Oil & Gas (NTOG) and "being saved" by Jesus or Matt Lofgran, Tern (TERN), Petrofac (PFC) & Ben's Creek (BEN) and a day of shame for Allenby Capital.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Petrofac statement – it almost admits how screwed it is
I am not sure why shares in Petrofac (PFC) surged in recent days but anyone buying into the spike and ignoring fundamentals that I have explicitly wared about, will this morning be feeling pretty sore. A statement from the company is awful.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Tern – After the preposterous and cynical pump……as things get Wyld
AIM-listed jam-tomorrow investment company Tern plc (TERN) this morning announced a placing to raise just £420,000 (and that, before expenses) at just 2.4p – a cavernous (over) 30% discount. It was quite obvious to seasoned Tern-ologists that this was coming: it was yet again running on fumes and, of course, there was that preposterous pump the other day regarding its (natch…) cash-guzzling investee Talking Medicines and a previous conference-call. The gerbils lapped it up, pushing the shares northwards by well over 50% and this morning the inevitable dump came.- By Nigel Somerville & Tom Winnifrith |

Before midnight on Wednesday I published an article stating that drowning in debt and loss making Ben’s Creek (BEN) had fired all bar 5 of its workers and, being a nice guy, told Guy and Nick at Ben’s advisor Allenby about this at once. Today comes the ‘fess but why the delay Allenby?- By Tom Winnifrith |

Oracle Power, David Lenigas and Mining Equities Pty Ltd: it’s a small world innit?
I flagged up earlier this week how the deal struck by Oracle Power (ORCP) to but a nothingburger copper silver exploration tenement was just a pump, a promote, nothing of substance. And yesterday leading the pump on twitter spiking the shares by 27% to 0.0335p was the man himself, David Lenigas.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

Photo Article: the proof that Chill Brands MUST be sitting on bad news about WH Smith
Chill Brands (CHLL) has been very cagey about when its products were set to be sold in 150 of the busiest WH Smith stores. Thanks to a fan of the stock who has also tweeted some nice things about me, here is a hint. The stock was in the Gatwick Airport branch on 5 January, as you can see below. That is a bombshell.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Buy 2 Let Cars Limited – the long slow hand of the law.
The UK has a massive problem with fraud. In its report Fraud Track 2024, BDO indicated that reported fraud was £2.3 billion up a 104% on prior year. In many cases the fraudsters operating via the internet and using Crypto currencies are not going to be identified or found by the flat-footed plod which prioritise dealing with “hurtful” tweets on Twitter over financial crimes.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Photo Article: a 2 metre reason NOT to go see my pal Vassilios Carellas on the ground with Arc Minerals in Zambia
Vassilios, the COO at Arc Minerals (ARCM), says he is off back to the copper belt in Zambia tomorrow. Ahead of his trip he says the infantry are out on the ground and sends me a picture of them in action. Yikes!

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: whataboutery
I did a silly thing today. I start with Whataboutery, tax dodging Angela Raynor and twitter. Then Lok 'n' Store (LOK), Ben's Creek (BEN), Distil (DIS), Powerhouse Energy (PHE), BSF Enterprises (BSFA) and the silky words of Colin Bird on placings.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Bulletin Board moron seagreen where are you now? A posting that did not age well
seagreen used to post obsessively about why folks should follow his example and fill their boots with shares in Ben's Creek (BEN). As you can see below he was not a great fan of my views. Now with Ben's days, if not hours, away from going bust, seagreen seems to have disappeared. As ever, for folks who instead of heading multiple warnings, opted to insult me, I have zero sympathy.

Tiger Royalties – another quarter of pointless failure & meaningless data: premium to (undeclared) NAV is insane

Sub-Standard Listed BSF Enterprises (BSFA) has announced progress on its new ruse, Frankenstein Leather in that it has managed to produce a piece of bio-engineered leather measuring ten centimetres square and 0.5-1 millimetres thick.
