Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Disclosure: The author has a short position in one or more of the shares mentioned. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
I am not a great one for gloating, but as I head off for the summer holiday, it is with a certain satisfaction that I note that four of the stocks that I have covered extensively here over the last year are currently suspended.

DUCK AND DIVE
“It is a bit of a mystery to me why certain companies attract shareholders who seem to combine stupidity with a sort of blind, toxic hatred against anyone with a dissenting view.”
No mystery, surely? Doesn’t this apply to any stock with a BB following which has its weaknesses exposed by a third party? Until they had a common enemy, they were all bickering amongst themselves. United against their new foe, they use whatever ammunition they can get. And if they can’t silence the naysayer with facts, then mindless vitriol will do.
Such behaviour only makes it more obvious that their case is weak; but it’s a crime of passion. They can’t help themselves.

Possibly these ‘morons’ are merely responding in kind, to the offensive abuse
that they receive from Mr Winnifrith?
Of course, the coordinated (in my opinion) bear attack on Quindell got them pretty
over excited too, when Winnifrith said it was worth 0p, when it then sold for £647 million plus.
I don’t condone bad behaviour on either side, but you seem to be struggling to understand the degree
of anger.

Filthy.
The morons who bought at anything up to 660p and stayed long and strong were warned by me that this was a fraud. Now the SFO are on to it ( and FCA & FRC) might you accept I was right. If they are still long and strong the shares are now 124p and SUSP and as I explained earlier will be worth a lot less. Heck I might even see my 0p.
If you think that sending death threats, harassing my staff, posting lies to try to get my poor staff fired at Free Speech & Liberty is an acceptable response to folks who expose fraid then it just shows again that you are a complete prize wanker.
Free speech should be cherished and fought for. You are just a free speech denier and so beneath contempt.
