The Prospects of this Profitable Animal Looker-Afterer Could Be More Understandable than its Name
Hello, Share Carriers. Despite having one of the most tautological names on the stock market, Pets at Home (PETS) seems to be on the right track for a higher share price (tautology, of course, is saying the same thing twice and where else would you have your pets, but at home?)...

Sound Energy – is that noise the screams of Bulletin Board savant agony? It will get worse
I warned folks time and time again that the valuation of Sound Energy (SOU) was a monumental joke as the shares were pumped up to a peak of 82p. But the savants of the Bulletin Board Moron community knew better and hurled back abuse. Today the shares are just 11.62p but that is still way too high.

21st Century Technology – contract renewal ‘delight’… but reason to be wary of share price strength?
Shares in passenger transport technology company 21st Century (C21) are currently more than 18% higher today, around 3p, on the back of a contract announcement. However, it’s a renewal of an existing framework agreement. Hmmm…

Westminster clarifies on its 2018 “profits” – surely it over-egged before bailout placing?
If Westminster Group (WSG) was regulated by the SEC not the weedy poltroons at the FCA and the Oxymorons at AIM regulation, shamed ex Tory MP Tony Baldry of 3DM infamy would this morning be sweating like the dirty pig he is. Let me explain.

Accesso shares have more than halved – who is to blame? Natch it is Tom Winnifrith says Roger Lawson who wants me closed down
Shares in Accesso (ACSO) have more than halved so who is to blame? I warned folks on numerous occasions about aggressive accounting, weak cashflows, lack of timely disclosures and hefty boardroom share sales, notably in a detailed piece HERE. And you might have thought that those were all very good reasons why the shares have tanked. Oh no…step forward loyal shareholder Roger Lawson of Sharesoc reporting back on the AGM which he attended.

Try Researching Galliford Try if You Think the Bank Of England Has it Wrong on House Prices
Hello, Share Swipers. Home builders have performed well for me over recent years. Not because they are necessarily blisteringly good firms, but boosted by the government’s help to buy schemes which have put a lot of dosh their way. However, this family’s investment in Galliford Try (GFRD) has not done well of late...

Tom Winnifrith Bonus Bearcast: Stockopedia, Optibiotix & Optiva not trying to bribe me!
Broker Optiva has made a very generous donation to Rogue Bloggers for Woodlarks. Given how beastly I am about it (as is Levi) that is very generous. I suggest you follow suit HERE. Stockopedia has done another poor hatchet job on Optibiotix (OPTI). I explain why it is just a piss poor and pointless piece. The shares, at 89p are a BUY at up to 90p and will be 125p+ in a very short order.
