Canadian Overseas admits that the end is nigh, the Fat Lady will gig with Arthur Millholland AGAIN, as soon as a week today!

After today’s confessional the FCA should be suspending shares in Canadian Overseas (COPL) pending clarification. It has admitted that it is screwed and the only question is when it goes bust causing shareholders to lose everything. It could be within a week. Now will those monstrous motherfuckers at Yellow Jersey PR, lead by morally bankrupt shithead Dominic Barretto, apologise for their defamatory smears against me in an RNS when I first exposed this excrement? Of course not. Now back to Canadian’s woes. As I ponder Felix, who wanted me in jail for my writings on Canadian, or the troll who went after my Mrs, it's schadenfreude time for me.

Scirocco Energy – As Greenan Deal Falls Flat, Shareholders To Vote On Cash Return at another AIM scandal

Back in 2022 I followed the controversy over the change of strategy at AIM-listed Scirocco Energy (SCIR). In the end, shareholders backed a deal under which the company would dispose of its Ruvuma asset and move into green energy via a deal to acquire Greenan Energy in Northern Ireland. Last heard, the Ruvuma disposal had stalled and now the Greenan deal has fallen apart with the asset now sold at a loss. Both deals appeared to me to be poor ones and shareholders are being left to carry the can.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Why is James Cherry from lawyers Simmons & Simmons running scared of me?

I start with the chicken lawyer, JP Jenkins not explaining a share suspension and Tintra (TNT), the AIM Company of the year 2022, which might have been wound up this morning. Then it is Ariana Resources (AAU), Amaroq (AMRQ) my biggest gold holding which will be 100p+ well before Christmas, Faron Pharmaceutics (FARN), Bytes Technology (BYIT) and its very naughty now ex CEO Neil Murphy and today's ouzo moment from Shield Therapeutics (STX). I still await apologies from the trolls of 2022 as I drink gallons of vindication.

A tips of the year update – including one mea culpa?

Following tips of the year success last year, I repeated the selection strategy this year. Does that though look set to work again following a trading update announcement today from one of this year’s tips?

Letter to AIM Regulation: Nightcap and breach of AIM Rule 11

As the United Kingdom slowly sinks into a cesspit of sleaze, corruption, fraud and lies I hold no hope whatsoever that the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation will do anything about companies that break its own rules and so deceive investors. But I have written to the Oxymorons anyway about Sarah Willingham’s Nightcap (NGHT) urging action NOW and certainly before it goes bust in June.

Feedback – interims and argues pilot agreement importance “cannot be understated”. What about cash burn importance?…

Medical device company Feedback plc (FDBK) has announced results for its half-year ended 30th November 2023 with CEO Dr Tom Oakley “delighted with the increased traction for our core products” and considering that the “outlook is promising”. So why currently a slightly lower to 61p share price, just above £8 million market capitalisation, and with the shares down from above 100p just last summer?

Vindicated yet again: Shield admits to overstating sales cash burn is horrid

Oh dear, oh dear as disgraced ex share tipster Mike Walters would have said as another of his duff share tips crashed. Did Walters tip Shield Therapeutics (STX) – where I have been a perma-bear – as it sounds like his sort of stock. Today there is news of bogus revenue recognition and a looming cash crisis. What is not to like?

Angling Direct – trading update far from ‘direct’ on what its actual profitability is!

Fishing tackle and equipment retailer Angling Direct (ANG) has issued a trading update noting performance “in line with market expectations” and that it is confident it is well-positioned to achieve further growth through this financial year. What of a current up to 41.5p share price in response, though still down from even 45p reached a couple of months ago?

Valereum Blockchain – the new chairman Is spoofing you with his investment, supposedly, at 6p

Valereum Blockchain (VLRM) may have new management but with a string of cash burning initiatives it is still spoofing like billy-o to get the funding it needs. Yesterday’s ramping including news that it was seeking to raise £4million at 6p with chairman James Formolli pledging too pony up £2.5 million at 6p. Great.

Why the house price bubble is going to burst but it is not as dramatic as it sounds

One day the Daily Mail, which is obsessed with house prices, tells us that house prices are soaring, the next day we are told that they are slumping. The reality is that neither is true or will be true. Instead what will happen, as the now roadsweeping Chris Bailey always flagged up, is that prices will increase only marginally in actual terms but in real terms will shrink for the rest of this decade. But that has profound implications.

Roger Lawson's conclusions on Globo: should we tar all Greeks with the same brush?

The Globo (GBO) fraud claimed to be drowning in cash. In fact it had just debt. There were numerous red flags but its supporters, like Roger Lawson, suggested that we critics were wrong. Only after Gabriel Grego’s bombshell report, which only this website had the cojones to publish while snot gobbler Dan McCrum of the FT merely alerted the CEO so he could dump millions of shares, and when Globo admitted it was a fraud did Lawson accept that we were right. The great man has now spoken after news broken by this website that the FCA is not going to do anything about such a slam dunk fraud.

Revolution Beauty – after recent news flow hitting the share price, “Grant of Share Options” time (natch!)

Having been approaching 34p late last month, group considering itself a “mass beauty innovator” Revolution Beauty (REVB) has since made announcements including noting a pre-action letter from Chrysalis Investments, a settlement agreement with a co-founder former CEO, a warning on trading and a change of auditor despite BDO only having been its auditor since 2019. The shares are resultantly down to 27.9p… and now “Grant of Share Options”?!

Max Rets Ventures – yet another listed company controlled by the, now collapsing, Dominic White web of companies

I discussed the POS in bearcast yesterday and today shares in Max Ret Ventures (MAX) have again slumped to just 3p to 10p – they were 20p mid two days ago! Even so they are a total bargepole stock and, after the collapse of Dispensa (DISP), I wonder if this is the next part of the Dominic White/Alessandro Zamboni empire to collapse. According to Max’s website the following shareholders are interested in 3% or more of the Company’s issued ordinary share capital:

Describing itself as “a leading provider of Electric Vehicle charging solutions in the UK”, Pod Point Group (PODP) states that it is “pleased to announce”a trading update ahead of its 2023 calendar year results to be announced in April and the appointment of a new CEO.

EXPOSE: Technology Minerals another spoof release, are its shareholders dumb enough to fall for it? Yes they are!

Drowning in the stench of fraudster Chris Cleverly, the first cousin of our esteemed Home Secretary and fearless fighter of fraud James, Technology Minerals (TM1) has issued another ramptastic and wholly misleading RNS. It seems to have fooled some of the morons…

Describing itself as “a leading Metaverse / spatial computing technology company”, Engage XR (EXR) has issued a “Major Contract Wins”-titled announcement and the shares have currently responded more than 40% higher to 3.6p. So very major indeed contract wins?

BREAKING: Supply@Me Capital – VE Chain deal terminated, any chance of an RNS?

In my note yesterday on the insolvent fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME), I looked at the various inventory monetisation deals that Supply had actually resulted in inventory monetisations, ignoring all the potential deals highlighted such as the Captive Bank, the Fintech bank and Stormharbour Securities (now in administration) funding which never materialised.
