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.
Rather blindsided by my pal Cathal Friel, one minute before we were set to discuss European Green Transition (EGT) about which I know quite a bit and shares in which have doubled since I tipped them, despite the warnings of Fagash, I was told we were to discuss Poolbeg Pharma (POLB) about which I know little. I know more now. Enjoy.
Over the last weekend Donald Trump announced by social media a new deal with Denmark and Greenland. How statesmanlike. The deal was inked thus week and means that the US will guarantee the sovereignty of Greenland and has a veto on non US investors gaining new access to base metals and rare earth resources. The next, and inevitable step, is large amounts of US money heading to Greenland mining and infrastructure projects.
Robinson plc (RBN) has issued a “Trading Update” including to “continue to expect that underlying operating profit for 2026 will be in line with market expectations”. So what about an approaching 6% lower share price response to 120p?
On a day of triumphs, the latest attacks on my wife really are disgusting and do make me think twice. Having considered that I look at Pensana (PRE) after today's shocker which, again, vindicates my work. I then look at Avacta (AVCT) and Mothercare (MTC) and I have a weekend treat lined up for you.
Describing itself as “one of Europe’s largest hostel groups”, Safestay (SSTY) has announced its results for the first half of the 2026 calendar year including emphasising “strengthened balance sheet” and that it “remains positive about Safestay’s long-term prospects as an established international operator in the significant and fragmented European hostel market”. What then about a current share price response to below 9p, more than 30% lower?
He may regard this website as being a satanist, devil worshipping, pedo outfit run byZionists but he just can’t keep away.
Last night the Quoted Company Alliance held a black tie beanfeast where all the Nomads, brokers, PR fluffies, lawyers, accountants and other crony capitalists used money extracted from PLCs (i.e cash raised from mug punters) to book tables and get pissed. Your cash, their hangover. But before you beat them up too much the poor bastards had to suffer a speech from the bogus Sheriff of AIM, Marcus Stuttard about how his crack team of Oxymorons at AIM Regulation were doing such a great job.
Dick and another shareholder, Keith Galter have now filed Letters of Intent saying that they will reject the Reabold Resources (RND) offer for Union Jack Oil (IJO), for it is indeed a piss poor offer as I have noted many times.
Planet Fitness (US:PLNT) is listed on Nasdaq and at $40 is capitalized at $3 billon and its shares trade on a PE of c14. Its business model is just bonkers as the X poster Foley Schmidt (@follard) explains below. It is so bonkers that it works so why should it stop working. Does that make it a long?. But it is also bonkers so is it a short? Over to Foley
After today's expose I prepare a full and detailed case for the prosecution with multiple charges. I then appeal to the NEDS at Cirata (CRTA) to act not only because it is the right thing to do but out of self interest.
International consultancy company Elixirr International (ELIX) has announced its first half of the 2026 calendar year results headlined “Record first half with continued profitable growth and expanding AI opportunity”. So what about that in the context of the valuation at a 504p share price?
The recent frenzy in the media regarding the existential threat to humanity posed by AI has been painful to witness. The BBC, sloppy and credulous, has given a massive amount of airtime to half-witted politicians and self-styled experts talking half-baked nonsense about the unsubstantiated torrent of rubbish spewing out of Silicon Valley. The real threat posed by the AI bubble is, of course, the damage to the world economy that is likely to ensue when it bursts. I say when not if because it seems increasingly clear that the business model of the so-called frontier labs, which are essentially Open AI and Anthropic, has a close to zero chance of achieving anything like the level of return demanded by the insane amounts of capital misallocated to the space.
In its interim results to June 30 2026, Cirata (CRTA) reported revenue of $957,000 which was down from $3,208,000 reported in the comparative period. That is bad enough for a “growth stock” but it really is only half of a shocking story.
I am sure that Paul Athlerley of Pensana (PRE) will again accuse me of clickbait journalism or of already being pissed at 8 AM and Tim from North London will blame it all on Brexit but let’s start with the sheikh and a lie that was served up earlier.
