I am unable to sleep because of the stifling heat of Southern Greece as well as the prospect of another week of holiday with the mother in law. Sean Smith, the CEO of AIM casino posterboy Eden Research (EDEN) is probably also suffering nightmares and insomnia but for different reasons. As he desperately tries to persuade his auditors to sign off Eden's accounts without an emphasis of matter, Smith knows that the £920,000 Terpenetech panama pump fraud he masterminded is now unravelling. The question is not will it cause Eden's destruction but when will this time-bomb blow up. I have thus, whiled away the early hours with a letter to AIM Regulation which is below.

Hello Share Squishers. It seems fairly obvious that gas and electricity supply companies may well see slimmer share prices after all this general election talk about capping energy bills. But so far, the market has not cropped shares by very much.

Writing yesterday on Ncondezi Energy (NCCL) I noted its “Project and Funding Update” including even “sufficient funding until the end of May… subject to the extension of the Shareholder Loan repayment date”. We now have a “Shareholder Loan Extension” announcement…

Shares in promotional space manager and services provider SpaceandPeople (SAL) are currently 45% higher today, at 37p, on the back of a “Trading Update” announcement…

AIM Cesspit listed FRAUD Eden Research (EDEN) has two massive problems. One is that with pitiful sales it is rapidly running out of cash and so must get yet another bailout placing away. The second is that it has now been fully exposed as committing a massive panama pump securities fraud HERE. Its response....

Oh dear, the curse of wretched Quindell (QPP) fraudster Rob Terry strikes again. Slater & Gordon (SGH), the Aussie poltroons driven to the point of bankruptcy because it bought worthless assets from Quenron says it is to launch a claim for £600 million ( the amount it paid) against Quindell - now renamed Watchstone Group (WTG). Slater claims that when it bought the assets it was a victim of "fraudulent misrepresentation." Oh Dear.

Writing previously in March on Flowgroup (FLOW), with the shares then at 5p, I concluded that there looked to remain both funding and jam-tomorrow uncertainty and to continue to avoid. Presently, the shares are approaching 40% lower on the day, at sub 2p, on the back of news that the company “is in the advanced stages of preparing a significant capital fundraising as a potential alternative to the proposed disposal of the Flow Energy business”…

England (well mainly the South East) subsidises Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. C'est la vie. It is part of being a United Kingdom. Personally I'd send all the Celtic loons packing, give them their independence and slash taxes for we hard working residents of England. But that is not the way and just to rub our noses in it, Welsh resident, Malcolm Stacey celebrates how local councils and the Welsh Assrembly have ponied up £50 million to turn some Godforsaken post industrial shit hole in South Wales into a new "Silicon Valley." Bollocks.

LGO Energy (LGO) has announced that chairman and CEO Neil Ritson has stepped down with immediate effect to make way for Leo Koot. Leo who? He is very tall, he's Dutch, he sleeps for just two hours a night and he is massive big hitter in the world of oil. Why on earth did he go for LGO?

Whilst it is true that a lot of the small companies listed on AIM are total junk, there are also some gems amongst them, and I think that Distil (DIS) falls into that category. I first came across this company at the UK Investor Show a couple of years back and it has performed extremely well since I first covered it as a buy here at around 0.8p - the share price is currently nearly 350% higher than it was back then.

Ripped straight out of the day's headlines, ShareProphets readers had funny captions for this US President Donald Trump / former FBI director James Comey photo. But there can be only one winner.

Hello Share Takers. It’s ironical to call Avacta (AVCT) one of my favourite shares when it has only made a modest profit for me so far. And it’s taken a long time to do that. But it does seem to me that this medical pioneer is onto something. And a little talk with a couple of its big cheeses at last month’s stunning UK Investor Show strengthened that feeling.

Since our previous (March) update, another ShareProphets China AIM 'Filthy Forty' company has followed Geong International and co in 'Geong, Geong' and then Gone...

Writing previously in December on x-ray imaging products for the security and industrial inspection markets-focused Image Scan Holdings (IGE) I concluded, with the shares at 6.5p, that I’d continue to monitor for the company growing more into such a valuation. It has now announced a 5.25p per share placing and subscription “to accelerate the introduction of recently developed products into the widest possible market, further extend the research and development activity and to provided additional working capital to facilitate the management of larger contracts”…

Is Orogen (ORE) the cheapest AIM shell? It could well be. That is why, with the shares at 1.625p mid, FIML - a company owned by the family trust of Tom Winnifrith, has added to its holding. As a reminder...

Shares in Ncondezi Energy (NCCL) are currently more than 30% lower on the day, at around 2p, on the back of a “Project and Funding Update”…

Ok, Align is paid to write research and we really do not always agree with what its eccentric boss Richard Jennings says and writes. But as we own a few shares in the company and agree with the thesis we are happy to republish this detailed note.

Character Group (CCT) has announced results for its half year ended 28^th February 2017 and that “we remain on target to achieve current market expectations for the full financial year”…

12th February 2016: “Our admission to AIM comes at an exciting point in the company's development and marks an important step in Cogenpower (CGP)'s evolution to becoming a leading low-carbon energy business for urban communities”. 3rd May 2017: “Working Capital and Operational Update”, 10th May 2017: “Resignation of auditor”. Uh oh…
