The View From The Montana Log Cabin: The Big Gold Yawn Continues And Ariana

Gold ended the week at $2,035. Having survived the test of $2,000 the previous week, the metal is now trying the upper end of a diminishing trading range but I fear that the big yawn is set to continue for a while yet.

Hats off to PABaker for correctly answering my little quiz on Thursday to celebrate the Emperor of Japan's birthday The two unnamed companies were indeed Toyota and Tesla. Despite a much lower market value (the gap is closing fast) Toyota boasts much higher revenues and profits and also has the advantage of not being run by a sociopathic drug addict.

Sensor technology and measurement systems company Transense Technologies (TRT) has announced results for its half-year ended 31st December 2023 and that “planned investment in sales and marketing activity at Translogik is opening new market channels” and “there is an increasing momentum of commercial enquiries and contracted business in SAWsense with high quality global customers”.

ESP

Cap and Gown Property Company could See its Share Price Earn Top Marks

Hello Share Crazies. Empiric Student Property (ESP) is a REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) enterprise. That means it has to hand most of its profits back to shareholders. And that’s why I tend to favour companies under this favoured umbrella. I’ve also noticed that REIT’s can do better than most of their peers.

The shares of this 70p offer price December tip have responded up to now 73p to buy, but we suggest there is further upside from the £10 million market capitalisation.

Tribal Group – “NTU Contract Update”, a damages demand ‘increase’ that dare not speak that name?

Education software and services group Tribal (TRB) has issued an “NTU Contract Update”-titled announcement… and the shares, already down from a start of 2024 above 55p, are currently further lower at around 42p in response. So what is the “contract update”?

Blowing almost £800,000 a year for the sake of just £13,271.24 - the sorry tale of Neil Murphy

Neil Murphy was sacked as CEO of Bytes Technology (BYIT) earlier this week after the company discovered that he had traded repeatedly in the shares without declaring it. My reputation may be that of being a complete bastard when it comes to corporate malfeasance but, though Murphy was rightly sacked and I hope without any compensation, as details emerge of his trades, I almost feel sorry for him.

Verditek from 20p to 0.09p in 3 ½ years (and still overvalued!) … vote for administration and to hold Gollum, Lord Willetts and the other guilty men to account

Oh dear. Oh Dear. As the now retired and disgraced share tipster Old Mother Mike Walters used to say as yet another of his share tips crashed and burned. Oh yes. This WAS one of his share tips. Just three and a half years ago he was pumping it hard at 20p and ridiculing those of us who exposed its lies, cash crises and piss poor IP. After an update today, the shares are just 0.09p but still way overvalued.

Tintra and its suspension on JP Jenkins: has it been wound up or not?

I suggested shorting green energy play Invinity Energy Systems (IES) at a 30.5p mid on January 22. The shares were 23.5p mid when this piece first appeared and are now 24.5p mid and I suggest you bank your gains. Let me explain.

React Group – a further trading and strategic delivery BUY with almost 50% upside

Shares in cleaning, hygiene and decontamination group React (REAT) exceeded 3.5p in 2021 and were 1.7p as recently as November last year. Currently available at a 1.4p offer price following recently-announced results for its year ended 30th September 2023, we consider the shares a misunderstood Buy with a 2p+ share price again quite realistic in the near-term.
