If you've never considered silver and gold ETFs and trusts now is the time to - my choice would be Sprott Physical Silver Trust
Gold and silver have been extremely weak in recent weeks and investors, certainly retail, seem to be moving away from these metals, but I would question whether that is the right decision to make at this time.

BREAKING: Sharesoc really must stop misleading folks on the Neil Woodford Claims – update from Harcus Parker
Having spent the Woodford years attacking the chap who exposed disgraced fund manager Neil, while giving Mr Woodford a free pass, the organisation that claims to stand for private investors continues to mislead folks about claims against Woodford, or rather his ACD, Link.

Comedy Central at Aquis-listed TruSpine
I noted the huge potential for free entertainment at Aquis-listed TruSpine (TSP) in the New Year Red Flags Sweepstakes results, when TruSpine had achieved the dubious double of a Red Flags Christmas Eve RNS (a three month delay to the application for FDA clearance of its Cervi-LOK product that was due at the end of the month which it apparently had only just noticed) and another on New Year’s Eve in the form of Interims to September 2020 showing net current assets of just £511,813 after a loss of £423,148. This week saw some news. No sniggering at the back……..

BREAKING: ShareProphets won't be around too much longer - Tom Winnifrith going to prison for 7 years with "unlimited fine"
Well you heard it here first. Actually you did not.As you can see below this report comes from an impeccable source: twitter where Jack Dorsey et al ALWAYS act to censor fake news so you can rely on twitter to give you the truth. Perhaps that is why 26 folks liked this tweet and 1 has retweeted it. Sadly for those 28 losers ( the author, RT and likes) this is demonstrable fantasy.

Hail, Hail the Ebony Nectar as the Gushing Oil Price Might Soon Get All our Lost Dosh Back.
Hello, Share Searchers. When this magnificent website became the first to predict that oil prices would slump into negative territory, I choked on my cornflakes. After all, my biggest holdings are in BP (BP.) and Royal Dutch Shell (RDSA). And scarily Shareprophets turned out to be dead right – for a brief period you couldn’t give oil away.

Xeros Technology – fundraising (again!), how ‘pleasing’ really is it from this Woodford dog?...
Xeros Technology Group (XSG) “is pleased to announce… the company has conditionally raised gross proceeds of approximately £8.0 million, through the successful placing of 3,333,333 placing shares” and that it “intends to provide… up to 416,586 open offer shares”. Just how ‘pleasing’ really is this though?…

Filthy Forty Origo Partners – Mind the P’n’D!!
For the record, I do not believe management at ShareProphets AIM-China Filthy Forty play Origo Partners (OPP) have anything to do with this- indeed, my view is that head honcho John Chapman is a breath of fresh air. But shares in Origo seems to have gone stark raving bonkers – only on Wednesday they closed at 0.145p and now they are 0.275p, having peaked at over 0.4p. What’s going on?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - lying really does matter
In today’s bearcast I look at Zoetic (ZOE) and why its monster lie from April Fool’s day 2019 does matter, even as Seth Freedman, at the behest of a Zoetic shareholder, harasses another one of our writers at 11 PM. I also look at Peter Brailey’s call on oil, why I agree and how to play it.

Was this an April Fool’s day MONSTER lie from Zoetic or what? Or doesn’t anyone care any more?
In the old days misleading investors with lies or grotesque exaggeration was frowned upon but it seems we live in a new modern world where this sort of thing is just fine and dandy. Let’s go back to April Fool’s day 2019.

The City Boiler Room that scammed £30m that the FCA did nothing about for years, part 2 – Appbox Media
I have already dealt with the imminent demise of its sister company, One True View, where a sham £186 million bid evaporated and where the end is nigh. Now to Appbox Media, the first company set up by Polat Hassan as part of his City boiler room operation which has stolen £30m from naïve investors. The FCA was warned by me as long ago as November 2019 but natch has done nowt.

Putting fat cat share purchases into context: Sam Smith of Finncap
As per its recent trading statement, Finncap (FCAP), like every other City advisory and broking firm, has enjoyed a quite amazing year. It is the nature of this industry that it is either feast or famine and with massive M&A activity, debt and equity refinancings and even IPOs in the small and mid cap space, even Finncrap must have coined it in. That brings us to today’s news that its, self-important, smug and woke, CEO Sam Smith has bought 130,000 shares at 30.5p.

Oil Price – 2021 outlook update: $100 on the cards
It was only some 11 weeks ago (a few days before Christmas) I put views down on my view of the oil price outlook for 2021. In normal times I would not expect to update my views after such a short time – but I do today. I now see significantly higher pricing and I think this benefits articulation. I also refer to the passing of an old family friend – Ahmed Zaki Yamani.

URU Metals – Shareholders called to vote on “Disposal”
I commented back in January on AIM-listed URU Metals (URU) and its proposed sale of the Zebediela project in South Africa to Canadian-listed cash (-less) shell Blue Rhino Capital. Suffice to say I wasn’t impressed. Yesterday the company called its AGM and on the agenda is this “disposal”.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Remote Monitored Systems is 'avin' a Turkish, just go to companies house
Just a few housekeeping points. I have spent a happy 1/2 hour chatting to North Wales Police about harassment. The miscreant now finds two forces looking at him and a third may join soon as he has, I discover today, also harassed a couple in Dorset as they grieved the chap’s poor father. Secondly, I’ve invested a five figure sum in a stock which will shock you. All is revealed on my latest video show out today. Thirdly, my main energies remain on new family enquiries. Then there is a detailed look at Marchale (MAC), Chris Akers and its patently forced and misleading Trading statement. Finally onto Remote Monitored Systems (RMS) and digging into its new distributor. It is ‘avin’ a giraffe if it expects anyone to take this nonsense seriously.
