LightwaveRF – trading update ‘delight’… but revenue is vanity…

CEO of self-styled “leading smart home solutions provider” LightwaveRF (LWRF), Jason Elliott, is “delighted that Lightwave has maintained the momentum of significantly improved revenue in the quarter” – and the shares have currently responded back above 8p, 10% higher…

TLY

Totally trading statement – complete & utter gibberish and utterly meaningless

Totally (TLY) is probably insolvent, in that it cannot meet its existing current liabilities from existing resources,  but we do not quite know as today’s trading statement is just so much meaningless gibberish. What exactly is CEO Wendy Lawrence so desperate to hide?

Julie "Under FCA Criminal investigation" Meyer completely loses plot – claims “known fraudster” Tom Winnifrith going to prison

Oh dear, oh dear, Julie “lingerie on expenses” Meyer really has lost the plot now sending out a letter to business contacts in which she declares she is innocent of everything and then tears into her critics including me. Thanks to Winnileaks I have that letter.

Tom Winnifrith Bonus Bearcast: Concepta EVERYTHING that is wrong with AIM Casino Placings on display

We own shed loans of shares in Concepta (CPT) and they are, in my view, still cheap. But today's placing fills me with utter disgust and makes me so angry as I explain in full. The image below is from the Boots website.

Adept4 – follows a late trading warning (where even bullshit earnings on steroids couldn’t help) with “Customer Contract Termination”…

Writing in November on “provider of 'IT as a Service'” Adept4 (AD4) it was “Trading Update” = a late trading warning & even bullshit earnings on steroids can’t help!. Today “Customer Contract Termination”. Uh oh…

There is no escaping history... Paper money always eventually fails

“A system of capitalism presumes sound money, not fiat money manipulated by a central bank. Capitalism cherishes voluntary contracts and interest rates that are determined by savings, not credit creation by a central bank.” – Ron Paul…

MIN

Minoan – signs of progress as FY18 results are released

AIM-listed Minoan (MIN) has released its annual results to October 2018 and there does at last appear to be some sign of tangible progress in monetising its holiday resort project in Crete. My buy tip for 2018 has so far been embarrassingly bad, for which I can only apologise. But this morning’s results have some snippets which show that things are moving in the right direction and I still sense that we might see the original buy price (6.25p) taken out.

Quilter continues to empire build

Steve already talked about the offer for the financial advisory concern Lighthouse Group (LGT) HERE and I would recommend you read his wise words. I am going to take a slightly different perspective, looking at the deal from the perspective of the acquiring entity Quilter (QLT) (technically Lighthouse Group is being acquired by a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Quilter), which I last wrote about HERE...

The Most Common Jewel of Advice Glittering at the Global Group UK Investor Show

Hello, Share Chuckers. My head's still buzzing with the bombardment of sound advice I heard at the Global Group UK Investor Show. But this will be my last reference to this year’s stunning event. I just wanted to pass on the most common nugget of guidance imparted by some of the most successful British investors of the generation...

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Reviewing my portfolio

In this podcast I look at the  growing mini bond scandal as I flag up another ponzi waiting to collapse today HERE. Then I do a review of my own bull portfolio: Optibiotix (OPTI), Yourgene (YGEN), Concepta (CPT), Big Sofa (BST), Wishbone (WSBN), Kefi (KEFI), Reach4Entertainment (R4E), Falanx (FLX), Fox Marble (FOX), Berkeley Energia (BKY) and Argo Blockchain (ARB). I did not mention Fox in the podcast so I'll do a seperate update later. Finally: why have you not joined the roll call of heros HERE? I say a few extra fucktards on that count.

SHOCKING: ADVFN promotes an insolvent mini bond ponzi - welcome to Burrito Bonds

It sounds great, the latest 8% yielding mini bond plugged aggressively by ADVFN, the second Burrito Bond. Unfortunately if you do a bit of digging this is yet another mini bond scandal set to join the growing list.

This week’s top disaster for Neil Woodford

Our good friends over at Citywire have again come up with bad news for Neil Woodford, in revealing that investors in his Equity Income Fund (EIF) reacted badly to last month’s sequence of dismal news by cashing out to the tune of £160 million. Having started March with £4.7 billion, EIF slumped to £4.4 billion last month which suggests that redemptions are not the only problem for Woodford.

OPP

Filthy Forty Origo Partners – where’s the website gone?

I noted last month that ShareProphets AIM-China Filthy Forty play Origo Partners (OPP) had sacked its investment adviser, Origo Advisers Limited “for cause”. Now it seems that the company’s website has disappeared, as you can see HERE – which is, of course, contrary to AIM Rules. But before I get on my high horse, I would note a few things.

Notes from Underground: My Master Investor recap

The question that I am sure that many of you are asking today is: what happened to me at the Master Investor show? Did they use my head as a door opener as they threw me out? Did they have a meeting of the Car Park committee? Was I tossed in London Design Centre jail?

Rose Petroleum – funding delays… but now proposed board changes and…

Rose Petroleum (ROSE) has updated including that obtaining a farm-in / funding commitment for its Paradox Basin, USA acreage on appropriate terms is taking longer than anticipated, but also proposed new board appointees “acutely aware that time is of the essence and look forward to updating shareholders in the very near future”

Extra checks all round! Ongoing blushes in housing market

When it all goes wrong, well it just all goes wrong.  I had to smile earlier today when I read that the oft-quoted Halifax House Price Index had bogged up and the old building society (now of course owned by Lloyds Bank (LLOY)) had to withdraw the latest data.  You would have thought somebody, somewhere in the analytical process, would have noticed that if it was rather unusual that prices had risen more than 3% in the three months to March.

It appears that after racking up losses of £3 million last year the sex toys and lingerie chain Ann Summers is on the brink. In the good old days the woman below used to put sex toys and vibrators on expenses at Ariadne Capital. But it is now in administration and Julie Meyer is in Switzerland. This may partial;ly explain the woes of Ann Summers and as such we ask you to post suitable captions in the comments section below. The wittiest/most filthy will win a semi naked photo of the UK's top share blogger, thirsty Paul Scott. The deadline is midnight tonight. Do your worst.
