The View From The Montana Log-Cabin As Gold Heads For Another All-Time High

Gold closed the week at $2,748 – up again from last week’s record $2,721 and therefore yet another all-time weekly high as we head for the end of the month and another record monthly high. It is all good news for Goldbugs, even if Gold stocks took a breather during the week as can be seen on the chart below of Gold against the miner’s ETFs GDX (majors), GDXJ (juniors) and GOEX (explorers).

Tern – Wild About Wyld? Still A Bargepole Sell, Target 0p.

AIM-listed jam tomorrow investment company Tern plc (TERN) announced on Friday that it believes the recent rescue rights issue by investee Wyld Networks, which trades on the joke “Nasdaq-of-the-North” exchange in Stockholm, was not in shareholders’ best interests and that it was taking advice…..and then admitted it had been selling the stock. Having just raised £0.6 million, is it going to line its lawyer’s pockets?

Malcolm’s most read article each year from 2013 to 2024

Excluding the interregnum between the last days of the t1ps.com websites and the creation of ShareProphets, Malcolm has been my first read of the day for 16 years. As it probably has for most of you as well.  Here are the most read articles of each year (ShareProphets only), which gives a flavour of the times he wrote through.

After Nearly a Quarter of a Century, this (Very) Old Hand Says Goodbye - and Thanks for Everything.

Hello Share Friends and Colleagues. This dilapidated old punter has written this column for the last 24 years. First with the pioneering Sharecrazy. com and from 2008 for this legendary Shareprophets site. The old column melded seamlessly into the new one. That means my total number of contributions would fill about 35 books! But now I’m in my extremely late thirties. So I’m waving bye bye to you all. It’s time to move on. I need to spend more time with my family.

Chapel Down – intra-day “Update on Strategic Review, Harvest & Trading” enough to turn its investors to drink!

Describing itself as “England's leading and largest winemaker and the power brand of English wine, the world's newest international wine region” (hmmm!), Chapel Down (CDGP) has issued an announcement commencing that, having announced a strategic review on 25th June and evaluated a number of opportunities, “this review is now complete with the board concluding that there were no transactions that would create superior long term shareholder value than Chapel Down remaining a stand-alone AIM listed company”. What then of the shares responding more than 12% lower towards 40p?

Coral Products – CEO to leave, and further financial desperation?

Most recently writing on plastic products company Coral Products (CRU), earlier this month with the shares falling below 6p I noted it arguing financial ‘resilience’ but I questioned detail that dare not speak its name. The shares had recovered a bit to most recently close at 6.25p and now a “Directorate Change” announcement.

Video: Why Shouldn’t the Dollar be as Good as Gold?

Of course the short answer to that is "because God does not print new gold like billyo". The long answer comes from academic Dr. Judy Shelton.the author of Good as Gold, a woman who passionately advocates for sound money as a moral obligation of governments to their citizens. My sort of bird.

BREAKING: Bear raider Tim Kempster calls out Predator Oil & Gas for lying about its cash needs

With its interims published on 25 September, Predator Oil & Gas (PRD) insisted that it had cash to fund its commitments for 12 months. But when you have massive corporate overheads you have to ask if that is included in the maths? Are overheads commitments. Anyhow, short seller Tim Kempster has called Predator out for telling porkies.
