Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
After the success of this year’s biggest and best ever Sharestock, The Mrs. is hard at work making plans for Sharestock 2027 on September 4. Those who enjoyed the slugging match between Chris Gilbert of Eco Buildings (ECOB) and Fagash in 2026 will be delighted to know that a rematch is now inked in for 2027 by when, I predict, Fagash will, on this one, be looking very silly indeed. Of course that is not the main draw.
‘Predictive genetics’ company GENinCode (GENI) has announced results for the first half of the 2026 calendar year including “successful completion of £4.3m net placing in Feb 2026 to support scale up and commercialisation… adjusted EBITDA losses have reduced over the period and are expected to improve further in the second half as revenues improve”. So what about a current 0.70p share price, 20% lower?
I start with the latest proposals from the Home Secretary about importing more Afghans and Gazans, can anyone at any level say why this is not insanity? Then Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), yesterday's fake research note and today's results.
UK floor coverings distributor Likewise Group (LIKE) has announced its first half of 2026 results headlined “Strong performance with FY26 now expected to be materially ahead of market expectations”. How good is the news from the valuation at a 35p share price?
56 days after it launched its bid for Union Jack Oil (UJO), Reabold (RBD) today announced that acceptances are, as of 1 PM yesterday, up to 6.2% from 5.7% a week prior. That is humiliating.
Describing itself as “a leading provider of asset protection technology and offshore energy services”, Tekmar Group (TGP) has issued a “Trading Update, Contract & Working Capital Facility” announcement including that it “is pleased to report that trading volumes in the second half of FY26 have continued to grow” and “a €6 million contract extension for a European offshore wind project”. So what about a current 11p share price, more than 10% lower?
She has him blocked on the advice of the Police who are even keener to interview him under caution after a weekend slew of emails. But he ccd me in. He emailed to her:
Like me, the legendary investor investor Rick Rule sees real parallels with the 1970s.
In its interims to 30 June 2026 out today Tern (TERN) announced a loss of £382,000 and a 10% decline in net asset value per share to 0.9 pence. That is only half the (horror) story.
As I explained HERE, the $145 million interim profit reported by Tek Capital (TEK) was pure fiction. Its aim was to disguise from the ongoing cash guzzle and to ramp the shares ahead of yet another placing. Call me Mystic frigging Meg.
On both the ADVFN and LSE Bulletin Boards late afternoon there were postings of what purported to be an “independent broker note”. The company is aware of no note. The claims made in it are demonstrably false at a number of levels. And if you put it into AI it will tell you that it appears fake and is largely AI written. So it’s fake. But it has spooked investors.
I discuss the gold price, I mention Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) and I look in detail at Blackbird (BIRD)
XP Factory (XPF) states that it “is pleased to announce that it has today entered into an agreement for the sale of… its Boom Battle Bar business”. Hmmm – it only bought the business, for a stated £17.4 million, in 2021 and so the now “pleased to announce” because it has got a good price?
With its operations at Longonjo effectively shuttered as it faces a funding black hole after offshore financier Cascade failed to deliver a $150 million investment into its subsidiary, Pensana (PRE) faces not only financing challenges but also a credibility issue. Chairman Paul Atherley urgently needs to answer two questions to reclaim some credibility.
I’ve long been a fan of Serica Energy (SQZ) and over the years have watched it grow from a small AIM company to its current size, where it has just made the decision to move its shares to a main market listing.
