Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: if Piers Linney is worth £69m I am a banana

I question the net wealth claimed by two former Dragons in the Mail on Sunday. Linney's claim is a joke following the demise of Outsourcery (OUT) as is that of Sarah Willingham of Nightcap (NGHT) which I look at after its latest crap acquisition and lack of profits warning. Then it is onto Wandisco (WAND) and the proposed bailout at just 50p, to Eurasia (EUA) where nothing at all adds up. Then onto today's ouzo moment, the suspension of Eight Capital Partners (ECP), the insolvent fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and Canadian Overseas (COPL) whose shareholders' reactions to my latest piece show themselves to be as unpleasant as they are stupid. When Canadian, already 90% down since my first big bear call, heads towards 0p as it will inevitably do I will have no sympathy at all.

BREAKING: Supply@Me Capital – proof of its technical insolvency as of 30 June 2023 in its hidden prospectus

Having got shares in its bastard little brother Eight Capital Partners (ECP) suspended this morning it is time to turn to the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) whose shares should also be suspended, in this case, pending clarification of its financial position. It may be capitalised at £79 million at 0.129p but technically it is bust.

Canadian Overseas – confirmation largest death spiral bond holder is converting and selling shares at a loss & there's much more to come

Oh dear, oh dear, the really bad news is that even after its most recent bout of forward selling and bond conversion, Anavio Equity Capital Markets Master Fund Limited still owns 50 units of 2027 Bonds and 58 units of 2028 Bonds, convertible on their terms, in the aggregate, into 264,381,840 Common Shares, representing approximately 27.1% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, and 104,608,558 Warrants, representing approximately 10.7% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a fully-diluted basis. It owns no shares. But...

Supply@ME Capital – a transaction on which it will make just £54,000 (at most) over 3years is not worth £4 million!

The fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) is technically insolvent yet its shares are today up by 5% to 0.134, adding £4 million to its market cap – taking it to £82 million which is pretty full for a company that is bust – on news that it has completed a transaction which in the best case scenario will net it £54,000 revenue and probably no profit at all over 3 years.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Lets go for a quick death and vote Labour and I really am bored with gold

Nigel says that my boredom is a buy signal. But is it? Maybe it is right to be bored as something has changed. After that a bit on house prices and why I don't see a mega crash but would not buy housebuilders as Malcolm suggests I do. Finally, why not go for a quick death rather than a slow one and vote Labour? Oh, and I remind you why I may not be at liberty to bearcast on Tuesday. CORRECTION: Fellow Hammer J Price points out that Rice will be on £15 million a year not a week as I said in the podcast..

The View From The Montana Log-Cabin As Gold Still Resists Drop

Gold closed the week at $1920 – bang on last week’s number. Has it bottomed out? Who knows……but nobody cares anyway (which students of Benjamin Graham will know suggests upside: if nobody is interested, there are no sellers left.)

How a bulletin board moron tweets about historic sex abuse at Warwick School

Naming a paedophile teacher who used to abuse boys at Warwick School yesterday HERE is already paying dividends, a 5th victim has today contacted me and will be speaking to Warwick fuzz next week. I bet there are stacks more victims out there, now that the name is out there and with Warwick having finally 'fessed last week to having had an abuse problem and apologised, this is only the beginning and at some stage The Old Bill must act. But some folks who object to my exposes of stockmarket frauds interpret it another way, as you can see below.

Supply@Me Capital – it is time for clarity over the 1,615,253,000 share stock loan to High West

It’s surely time for Albert Ganyushin, the Chairman of the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) to force CEO Alessandro Zamboni to clarify what has happened to the shares which Zamboni’s 100% owned company, the AdvantGarde Group Spa (TAG) has given to three loan companies. At investor meetings Zamboni’s risible excuse is that he is unable to comment on TAG’s intentions but as he claims to own 100% of TAG’s shares, clearly TAG’s intentions are the same as his intentions.
