Odd one out Contest in honour of great companies brought low by the global shorting conspiracy

This is so simple. 4 companies but which is the odd one out and why? Answers in the comments section below by midnight on 28 February (today). The answer is not Globo on the basis that it was the only fraud owned and promoted by Roger Ramper Lawson but do your best anyway...

JSI

Filthy Forty victim #24 Jiasen – ouzo time as voluntary euthanasia sees shares delisted

And so ShareProphets AIM-China Filthy Forty play Jiasen’s (JSI) AIM listing is no more. It has become the 24th delisting from our original forty, after its shareholders voted (having been told it would make a fat-track application to NEX) to leave the Casino on the recommendation of the board. The NEX application didn’t happen, with the company claiming that it was now considering listing in Hong Kong. I’ll believe that when I see it.

Advanced Oncotherapy share slide accelerates as the death spiral dance moves up a gear

Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) the company with sod all cash, that is a cash guzzler, with no sales and which has persistently misled both investors and customers has moved up a gear with its death spiral funding and the shares have fallen again to just 49p to sell. Boy how sleazey former director, the Blair crony, Lord Evans of Watford must be glad that he dumped all his shares at 120p just ahead of the last big placing and during a closed period. And there has been no sanction at all. Bully for him. Now back to the death spiral.

Filthy Forty Asian Citrus – (lack of) progress on fraud allegations as Aim execution looms in four weeks

ShareProphets AIM-China Filthy Forty carcass number 24 was taken away from Paternoster (death) Row last night in the form of Jiasen International (JSI). But yesterday the race to become number 25 hotted up as Asian Citrus Holdings (ACHL) gave an update on the lack of progress made in resolving allegations of fraud which its auditor wants to look in to before signing off overdue accounts. With four weeks to go before a one-way trip to the lethal injection room is triggered by reaching the maximum six month suspension period, progress in resolving matters seems to have been non-existent.

Petro Matad continues to defy gravity

There are times when a share continues to defy gravity for far longer than most people would expect, and that certainly looks to be the case with Mongolian oil explorer Petro Matad (MATD).

Andalas - will it shortly have to kiss goodbye to its Tuba Obi East Farm In contract?

Dog Andalas Energy (ADL) was readmitted to the AIM Casino based on the back of the Tuba Obi East Farm In as described in its AIM admission document of 27 April 2016:

Tom Winnifrith: Do I want to get beaten up by a 36 year old fitness freak to raise money for Cloudtag owning morons on the LSE Asylum?

Ah diddums all those morons on the LSE Asylum who have spent months insulting and abusing me over Cloudtag (CTAG) are all of a sudden feeling a bit poor now that shares in their darling little fraud have crashed and been suspended. What is needed is a charity event to bail them out. And how about it involves me getting beaten up?

Advanced Oncotherapy May Still Be Saved - But Don't Bank on It.

Hello Share Tumblers. Uncle Tom has had Advanced Oncotherapy  (AVO) under his gimlet eye for some time now. A few months ago, after a particularly worrying piece, I sold all this family’s holding for a stonking loss.

CTAG

A new winner in the Bulletin Board Moron of the week contest, arise Sir Ian

The Cloudtag (CTAG) debacle has provided plenty of ammo for the BB Morons as the fraud has unravveled. As you can see HERE there were plenty of quality entries in last week's contest. But the winner, a first time winner, is Ian M Smith who spotted this gem from someone who reckons that the charlatans who run the LSE Asylum are now in on the global shorting conspiracy. Well done Ian who posts: 

VLX

Volex – updates that “profitability has improved”, but what about cash generation?

Having previously concluded it understandable that they remain below 40p, I note shares in Volex (VLX) currently rising above this level on the back of a “Trading Statement” announcement…

JSI

Jiasen - less than 3 hours to get out, bid price now just 0.25p

Shares in ShareProphets AIM-Chnia Filthy Forty play Jiasen (JSI) have now slipped to just 0.25p on the bid. Our advice is still to get out while you still can, but time is running out.

AFPO

African Potash - the fraud raises another £26,550 but who was mad enough to pay 0.045p?

This smells all wrong. Shares in African Potash trade (AFPO) trade at 0.02-0.04p on the NEX lobster pot after being booted off AIM. Since January 9 there have been just 23 trades of which only 2 have been at more than 0.045p. In February there have been seven trades and the most recent to sell have been at just 0.021p. Yet today the company has raised money at 0.045p. Who is that mad?:

Tom Winnifrith: a fitting epitaph for my gravestone

Actually I am not sure I am going to have a gravestone. I have not amended my will for a while but last time I looked I was heading for a cremation with the ashes scattered in two places. But I am thinking a bit more about a burial these days, perhaps one of those natural ones in a coffin that helps the worms gain easy access and turn you into food for the trees above. So if I do have a stone what shall be on it? I think I have decided

Servision – come on Nomad Allenby, the silence is deafening

AIM-listed Servision (SEV) has some questions to answer. I hope it is currently answering them to its Nomad Allenby Capital and that we will have a statement shortly. Having announced a funding deal with US-based Cascade (which has nothing to do with Bill Gates) which seemed way too good to be true – at over 400% of the previously prevailing share price – backed by a personal guarantee from chairman and CEO Gidon Tahan, the nature of that guarantee became rather murky on Friday when it emerged after-hours that he had put up his entire shareholding as security. On what terms?

VIP

Vipera - “well funded… through to cash flow profitability”. Hmmm, really?

Mobile financial services provider Vipera (VIP) “is pleased to announce a trading update in respect of the year ended 31 December 2016”. So why are the shares currently more than 5% further lower at 4.5p?...

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - who and when should you sue over the Cloudtag fraud? Also Andalas deathwatch ahoy!

I start and end with Cloudtag (CTAG) - so far today no news which I take to mean it is bad news and explain why. At the end I discus who disgruntled and out of pocket punters should sue over this fraud and when. In the middle of the Cloudtag fraud sandwich I look at Andalas Energy (ADL) which really is fucked whatever it says. I reckon Justin the Clown will have to sell the cardboard box and sleep in the open air before long. I also look at Starcom (STAR), Servision (SEV) - which is a major scandal in the making - Union Jack Oil (UJO) and Milestone Group (MSG) which remains non investment grade crap as CEO Deborah White should be wearing an orange jump suit and doing a perp walk.

For the Euro, Le Pen is Mightier than the sword.

We are now living through the mother of all financial bubbles and we’ve been living with it for so for so long now that it feels the norm, but it is not.  A bubble exists when asset prices rise beyond what incomes can sustain. UK property prices in 2007 and tech stocks in the late 1990s are fine examples of this. History is littered with such examples. Western governments and the banking cartel of the Central Banks of the major economies in cahoots with a very compliant mainstream media, are doing everything in their vast and considerable power toconvince us that we are living in a golden era of risk-free prosperity and that tomorrow will be even better. 

STAR

Starcom looks no closer to actually making a profit

Starcom Systems (STAR) has just released a trading update which shows that progress is still slower than expected in terms of growth and actually making the company profitable.

The broker that raised £10m for Advanced Oncotherapy downgrades its stance on the dog to hold - damning note

If you had raised £10 million for the AIM dog Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) less than 5 months ago at 100p then your stance on the stock - at 54p-58p- would be some sort of buy. Oh no. broker Beaufort who did indeed raise that cash has today downgraded its stance to, what may be termed a corporate "hold" (i.e. sell) and makes it clear that the shares will fall allowing lower entry points. I should cocoa. Beaufort today opines after the Bracknor death spiral announcement of Friday - the underlines are mine:
