Dianomi – ‘trading statement’ includes it “looking beyond the near term”, though it wasn’t in 2021. I wonder why?!…
Describing itself as “a leading provider of native digital advertising services to premium clients in the Business, Finance and Lifestyle sectors”, Dianomi (DNM) has issued a trading statement including that “demand from Dianomi's 400+ premium financial and lifestyle advertisers has remained consistent with the backdrop announced at full year 2022 results” and that it “continues to expand its distribution channels”. So what of a current 46.5p share price, down more than 40%?!- By Steve Moore |

Robert Bonnier’s All Active to refinance at just 1p having spaffed £150m raised two years ago at 80p: Zak Mir rides to rescue

Advanced Oncotherapy – Prospective Recapitalisation Plans To Shaft Shareholders, Or Worse
AIM-listed crock Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO), currently suspended pending financial clarification and unable to produce its accounts, has announced prospective recapitalisation plans which include a death spiral, debt-for-equity conversions and a general shafting of the current equity holders. And the plans are clearly at an aspirational level, dependent as they are on new equity capital being made available, approval from the takeover panel, the agreement of creditors and shareholders too. The choice seems to be maybe almost death, or just death.- By Nigel Somerville, the Deputy Sheriff of AIM |

And this is where the New York judge said Tingo was commiting fraud
So Hindenburg has shown Chris Cleverly's Tingo (US:TIO) is a fraud as I first explained at Sharestock last September. Nigerian debt rating agencies say its a fraud. Now here is a New York Judge saying its a Norfolk. At what point do the SEC, Deloitte or White & Case blow this up. A more obvious zero you will not find.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Solid State gets new NED – Ms. "how’s Your father" Sam Smith, you see how this works?
Sam Smith, who quit as CEO of FinnCap (FCAP) shortly before a series (not yet) finished of dire profits warnings having, imprudently, racked up the cost base in the face of an obvious oncoming macro storm, claiming that her resignation was to allow her to get her leg over, now has time on her hands. Sorry to hear about the downturn in the how’s your father department Sam. Anyhow she has today become a NED at Solid State (SOLI).- By Tom Winnifrith |

DFS Furniture might be taking market share, but what about new sofa profits in 2024?!
Regular readers will know I am not a fan of shares in DFS Furniture (DFS), including observing six months ago not to expect me to buy any shares in the name (or a new sofa). Should I be excited to read that its FY23 profits are “within (its) previously guided range”, and the company “achieves record market share”?

BREAKING: Cellular Goods – more seaweed bullshit deception can be exposed by basic desktop research

Ceres Takes its Name from the God of Fertility and Might Soon Give Birth to a Healthier Share Price
Hello Share Pilers. Ceres Power (CWR) is another of those green companies that Uncle Tom won't recommend. But its future, if not its present balance sheet, looks golden to this old punter. And the price has been rising in recent weeks, not that it is still not abysmal compared to previous highs of two or three years ago. But better times possibly are ahead for the following reasons.- By Malcolm Stacey |

The View From The Montana Log-Cabin As Gold Powers Ahead
After a good few weeks plumbing the depths of the $1900’s, Gold pushed higher this week to $1954 – well up on last week’s $1924. Gold stocks surged and all this in the face of higher interest rate expectations (the market was suddenly pricing in another two or even three hikes) and a still rising stock market. Except that US treasury yields weakened! This is, of course, not how it is supposed to play out – in the shorter term, the Gold price has had a habit of not doing what one might expect.- By Nigel Somerville |

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: I've always seen R&D tax credits as a system abused, now the Government seems to agree
I start on the matter of R&D tax credits. Maybe readers can help by nominating companies such as Deepverge (DVRG)) and, I think, Versarien (VRS) which have taken the piss in this regard and maybe in for a nasty shock. Then on to UK house prices and why Malcolm is so 100% wrong on housebuilding stocks, and the UK and US General Elections next year. On the latter the polls really are a damning indictment of American politics.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Video: Gold – Inflation Hedge or Real Rate Correlation
Analyst Michael Singleton explains his approach to the financial markets and business cycles, which are broken down into growth cycle, inflation cycle, and policy cycle. He believes the current inflationary picture is near its end but wage growth is still high. Mike says that the stock market has the highest correlation to the ISM manufacturing PMI, and that it’s important to pay attention to market history and study cycles for guidance.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Tingo Group: A Matter Of Time
Since I last wrote on Tingo (US:TIO) in late May, the share price has collapsed principally due to a devastating report from Hindenburg Research which demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt that the company is a complete sham. That it was prepared to call it out as a “brazen fraud” after presumably running this by its lawyers is instructive.- By Lucian Miers |

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Is IOG or Rishi Sunak the bigger zero?
In today's podcast I discuss the idea that you can cure inflation without pain, public sector pay hikes and folks paying their mortgage with a credit card. I look at the idea of abolishing inheritance tax in such a context: does Rishi Sunak really have a death wish for his party? Then it is onto Zoo Digital (ZOO) again and onto IOG (IOG).- By Tom Winnifrith |
