The time is coming to focus on writing, my family, chickens and goats. So will you join me on September 6 at the Welsh Hovel for what will be a special farewell gig.

Technology Minerals: Just how can this share issuance be kosher?

Technology Minerals (TM1) has less luck in getting a prospectus past the FCA than I do with getting my end away with Cheryl Cole. It is just not going to happen and that means that it cannot issue any more shares. Yet, after hours on Wednesday it announced that it was …issuing new shares. Just how can this be kosher?

Victoria: a reader writes

In the end, I still see Victoria (VCP) failing to generate free operating cashflow and thus drowning in its own monstrous debt. My end game target price remains zero. But recent times have been “challenging” for we bears with the shares surging from 41p to 125p today having been higher in recent sessions. A reader who has lost money writes to flag up a few fundamental issues:

Investment company in early stage financial services businesses B.P. Marsh & Partners (BPM) has been an excellent winner since being added to the portfolio at a 268p offer price in February 2020 and we noted on its latest half-year results in October fully diluted net asset value per share up to 658.5p and that its track-record suggested further upside.

Deltex Medical Group – argues “made good progress during FY24”. Er, so now proposed AIM cancellation?

Most recently writing on Deltex Medical Group (DEMG), in July with the shares down to 0.15p I concluded it looked like much more than customer “interest”, trials and demonstrations and small orders were going to be required and to still avoid/sell. The shares most recently closed at 0.08p and now an update the group commences with that it “made good progress during FY24 as can be seen from, among other things, the year-on-year increase in revenues”. So why a currently further slumping share price?

So what of a share price currently slightly further lower in response to below 170p?
