BREAKING VINDICATION: SEC charges Tingo and Dozy Mmobousi with what it terms a “staggering fraud”

I think we can now safely say that Tingo (US:TIO) shares are zeros. I was the first to flag up this as a fraud in September 2022 and for my troubles have received industrial scale trolling on twitter in a campaign orchestrated by Chris Cleverly. Well fuck you Chris you criminal dirtbag may your soul burn in hell: the SEC has today charged your man Dozy Mmobousi who was going to buy Sheffield United, with fraud. Dozy is accused of making millions via share sales and general corporate theft. Maybe Cleverly’s cousin James got him off the hook as Chris knew all about this. But so far only Dozy and Tingo Group plus two affiliate companies have been charged. The rap sheet from the SEC is below. An extra Metaxa for me tonight. Enjoy.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: A message from a “thoroughly odious “ man, i.e. me

I have decided who will be the subject of this year’s Christmas Carol. Hint: he has been known to mention how well educated he is. In today’s podcast, recorded before a Tingo-Tastic ouzo vindication moment, I discuss Canadian Overseas (COPL), Verditek (VDTK), Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and the morons and RBG Group (RBGP).

RBG Holdings – significant profit (lack of) warning… with just two weeks to its year-end?!

“Legal and professional services” company RBG Holdings (RBGP) has issued a “trading update” commencing that “2023 has been a pivotal year for the group. The new leadership team has taken action to reduce the group's risk profile and refocus on its core business activities where the board believes it can best maximise profits” and including that it “is confident that the business is moving into FY 2024 on a significantly stronger footing than at the start of this year”. However, that also tends to suggest a disappointing current performance and…

Invinity – FY to be broadly in line, i.e. a miss: when’s the rescue placing?

Shit of the Year, Dominic Barretto as you enjoy your nefarious gains this Christmas think about this poor sap you have duped & his daughter’s unfunded wedding

I pointed out earlier how PR spinners for Canadian Overseas (COPL) banked vast fees, nefarious gains, for crafting defamatory releases smearing me to defend their client. As the turd polisher in chief, loathsome morally bankrupt Dominic Barretto, plans a luxury Christmas he might, for a second, think about the pain of those who believed the manifestly dishonest releases he pumped out. From the LSE Asylum at 7.33 AM today:

EXPOSE: Novacyt a stand out short, a man close to the action is in touch

My man is close to the action and his reports suggest to me that Novacyt (NCYT) now in the skilled hands of Lynn Rees, the man who crashed Yourgene (YGEN) could well also crash and burn in 2024. At 66p the market cap is £47 million and the company had £81.7 million cash and no debt at June 30 BUT….

CAP-XX – patent infringement action failure. Er, what about the cash position now?

Previously writing on company describing itself as “a world leader in the design and manufacture of supercapacitors and energy management systems” CAP-XX (CPX), last month with the shares at 0.925p I wrote AGM updates, cash and board concerns? and concluded, natch, still a share to sell. The shares had recently risen, but today an “Update on Patent Infringement” announcement.

Wow just how badly these words aged: time for Arthur Millholland & morally bankrupt motherfucker PR Dominic Barretto to apologise

On 6th April 2022 shares in Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) were more than 20p and I had recently opened my assault arguing that, at 25p the shares were a compelling short. Today, after the latest disaster analysed HERE, they are just over 1p. But back then the man who created this investment disaster Arthur Millholland issued an RNS with a direct smear on me (suggesting I was short and did not understand accounts) and an implicit attack on ShareProphets. Morally bankrupt PR firm Yellow Jersey crafted this poison.

Don't forget to love a bit of gold for the rest of the 2020s

I learnt over the weekend that the market cap of the top five members of the MSCI All Country World Index (Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, NVIDIA and Alphabet) is in excess of the combined weight of the indices in Japan, France, China and the UK. From a purely statistical perspective, this can easily change after a few good or bad days one way or another (even before we consider the wealth of unlisted names and the like), but you get the general insight: like it or loath it, the world of Silicon Valley has become progressively more and more important over the past few years.

Canadian Overseas, Now the planned JV falls apart: a great bet for bankruptcy in 2024

Well knock me down with a fucking feather. All that talk from the Bulletin Board pond life about how a massive oil company was going to JV with Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) at Cole’s Creek. Guess what?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: This year's family luncheon surprise, Jubilee Metals to head sharply higher, Invinity is set to slump as Andrew Monk's tip of the year

The first man to threaten ShareProphets with a lawyers letter sentenced to five years in jail! More schadenfreude vicar?

It was just a week after we launched this website that we exposed a dodgy transaction between Pirate Pete landau’s Range Resources (RRL) and convicted heroin dealer Frank Timis. A lawyer’s letter from the criminal Pirate Pete duly followed. And it was not his only threat or lawyer’s letter to myself and ShareProphets. Oh well… I won’t be spending Christmas in the slammer. Landau will be.

What is going on at Entain?

I was at about eleven or twelve, when a teacher at school said that the stock market was "gambling". I doubt if the vast majority of us would agree with that, especially if you spend a good chunk of your time undertaking fundamental research. As for gambling, I do a little bit of it beyond the Grand National, but so little that Entain (ENT) - which owns the Ladbrokes, Coral, BetMGM, Ladbrokes Australia, TAB NZ, Eurobet, Sportingbet and 365Scores brands - will be uninterested in having me as a client. I have made decent money via Entain as it happens, but that is all to do with doubling my share position during early COVID, and being wise enough not to fully exit the shares until they were getting close to a 2000 pence share price. Gambling, eh?!

The View From The Montana Log-Cabin As The Fed Pivots

Gold ended the week at $2019 having explored below $2000 before the Fed announced its rate decision, which sparked a pivot party across US equity markets and Gold headed north. I said last week that we should know which way things are going after this week’s CPI numbers and the Fed meeting. Sadly I’m not so sure it is clear yet, but on balance it looks promising for Gold bulls.

Harcus Parker says 93% of voting Woodford victims were wrong to back FCA backed compensation scheme & it will fight to overturn it

The plebs do not know what they were voting for and did not understand the issues. No, not my pal the Euroloon Jonathan Price on the Brexit vote, but lawyers Harcus Parker on the FCA proposed compensation scheme for victims of Neil Woodford, which 93% of those voting have now supported.

Trafalgar Property – No-One-Is-Watching O’Clock Delayed Results Horror Show

AIM-listed property disaster outfit Trafalgar Property (TRAF) was suspended on 2nd October as it failed to produce its accounts on time. Last night, at 4.49pm on a Friday – no-one-is-watching o’clock – it snuck them out, along with interims to September. The company is technically insolvent and, frankly, I just don’t understand how the Auditor signed them off at all.
