Live Company Group: I confess, I confess – lock me up!!

I had a bit of a surprise when clearing my desk, but I have to confess a mortal sin. I had a few shares in AIM-listed Parallel Media Group (PAA) dating back to before ShareProphets was founded. To be kind, the shares didn’t exactly perform and I got rid of them. Or I thought I had.

'No Deal' or 'Not No Deal' and How to Try to Protect Your Portfolio.

Hello, Share Twiners. The Brexit wrangle so bores people that even the so- called more enlightened listeners of Radio Four's Today programme are turning off in droves in favour of mindless music channels. But is the likely effect on share prices going to ease or get worse?

Juicin needs another chance to win - another Bulletin Board Moron of the Week contest

After a lengthy hiatus, the Bulletin Board Moron of the Week came back last week , thanks to the unrelenting lobbying of ShareProphets member Juicin Drumroll. But Juicin did not win, being pipped by a splendid entry from Drunken Sailor as you can see HERE. So to give JD another chance...

Table of shorted AIM shares - week to 24/08/2018

From the FCA's spreadsheet of short positions required to be disclosed to it, the following shows the shorted AIM shares with positions from 2017 and thus far in 2018 (by net short position %) - and if this position has increased (red), reduced (green) or remained unchanged (black) since last week...

PEB

Pebble Beach Systems – “steady trading results” & steps to profit and cash generation “have proved to be effective”. Really?!

Pebble Beach Systems (PEB) has announced results including “the first half of 2018 has seen steady trading results… the significant steps taken to move to ongoing profitability and cash generation have proved to be effective”. Sounds promising, what are the financial details then?...

Sorry Nigel & Thirsty Paul but I’ve sold all our Sosandar

Nigel Somerville says that he is hanging on for much more and his patience may be rewarded. Thirsty Paul Scott speaks to Sosandar (SOS) bosses regularly then updates his fellow morons  on the ADVFN Bulletin Board. “Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, I speak to management regularly and it will all be brilliant” says Thirsty Paul. Whatever…

Sprott Gold Report: Buying Opportunity as Gold and Silver Shorts Reach Record Levels

Sprott is the world's best known resource investor so, after a sharp sell off in precious metals, its call that a sharp bounce is on the way should be taken in context. Over to analyst Shree Kargutkar...

AIR

Air Partner – “traded well over the first half”. Just how well?

Air Partner (AIR) has updated including that it “traded well over the first half of the financial year” and “remains confident in the group's prospects for the full year and beyond”. Sounds encouraging…

UKOG

Don't look if you are easily offended: even David Lenigas scolds the halfwits & thinks his moronic twitter followers are going too far

Finally after 48 hours of moronic and unpleasant harassment by a brigade of half-witted members of the cult of Lenigas, the Messiah himself was prompted by one particularly loathsome tweet (see below) to call a halt. I think David Lenigas wants the morons to play the ball not the man but what he says is a welcome start. Whether the UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) owning retards get the message is another matter but, thank you Big Dave for this...

Kingspan - insulation is a great theme...to be sure

Top of the regulatory news pile for me today is Kingspan (KGP), the insulation products company with Irish heritage, that claims, in its new presentation document today, that 'in 2017 total energy saved by our insulation systems is equivalent to over one hundred million barrels of oil or the annual output of sixty-one power stations'. Well how worthy…

Sosandar - looking good

At the risk of upsetting retail-guru Thirsty Paul Scott who thinks it is bad for the share price if any expert other than he pontificates, I thought it was time to mention once again my hot tip of AIM-listed Sosandar (SOS) from the UK Investor Show earlier this year. Having offered favourable mention at 12.5p I tipped it at 13p, cashed in a slice at 27p and the shares closed last night at about 35p. It is all good news!

TUNG

Tungsten Corp – pleased to appoint two new non-execs, or not?, balance sheet “adequate”, or not?

“Tungsten Corporation plc, a global business transaction network, announces that Tony Bromovsky and Duncan Goldie-Morrison have been appointed to the Company's Board as Non-Executive Directors with immediate effect.” Hmmm, not ‘pleased to announce’ then?...

Remember that Catchy Z Cars Theme? Well, Here's My Z Shares Theme

Hello, Share Babies. It's only fair I review occasionally shares I've commended to you in recent times, whether they've performed well or not. Let's look at three of my choices with something in common - they all begin with the letter Z.

A Letter to AIM Regulation: Is SP Angel fit and proper to act as a Nomad (and should the FCA investigate it as well)

Enough is enough. Yesterday John Meyer, a senior manager and large shareholder in SP Angel went onto Justin the Clown’s podcast to ramp corporate stocks such as Blue Jay Mining (JAY) without declaring an interest – his employer earns vast fees from Blue Jay as its Nomad and broker. But this is the least of SP Angel’s crimes and I wonder if its conduct over Blue Jay and MySquar (MYSQ) is, if not blatant market abuse, simply bringing the AIM Casino into disrepute. I have written to Marcus Stuttard, the head of AIM Regulation, demanding an immediate investigation into whether SP Angel should retain its Nomad license.

TOOP

Toople – “contract win demonstrates that Toople is excellently placed”. Er, how’s the balance sheet?

“Contract Win” announcement from Toople (TOOP) has presently failed to inspire the shares. Let’s take a look…

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - Justin the Clown who proves he cannot count to ten live on air interviews a shameless John Meyer of SP Angel

This may be the main bearcast or it may be a bonus. It all depends on how I feel and daughter Olaf feels after I pick her up at 4.30 AM Athens time in the Greek capital. In this I look at Falanx (FLX), the red flag of a rapid change in advisers ref Halosource (HALO) but also in more general terms and then at a shameless performance by John Meyer of SP Angel as he is interviewed by Justin the Clown over Bluejay (JAY). Meyer is at best an idiot, at worst he is covering up for what appears to be market abuse by his employer in relation to Bluejay shares. I will not let this one go. The clown's podcast is torture to listen to but can be found HERE if you feel you deserve 20 minutes of torture.

D4T4

D4T4 Solutions – does “encouraging returns from our business investment programme” suggest the shares a buy?

Data capture, management and analytics-focused D4T4 Solutions (D4T4) has updated including it is “seeing encouraging returns from our business investment programme” and “the board remains confident of delivering on its expectations for the year ahead”. Sounds promising…

FUL

Fulham Shore – “encouraging revenue increases”… but what about profit & the balance sheet?

Fulham Shore (FUL) has updated including on “encouraging revenue increases” and negotiations for a number of locations amidst “more properties coming to the market as a result of the current conditions in the wider retail and dining out sectors”

BIOM

Biome Technologies: With 100% in the bag, it’s time to take a little off the table

I first tipped Biome Technologies (BIOM) last November at about 215p and tipped it again at 260p earlier this year (HERE). With it more than doubling up from my first tip, I’ve hit my initial target and although there could well be more to come, I suggest that some form of top-slicing before the results in a couple of weeks might make sense.

MDZ

MediaZest – CEO share purchase… but small compared to his pay rise despite self-admitted financial results which “disappointed”!

Having announced self-admitted financial results which “disappointed” for its year ended 31st March 2018 last week, MediaZest (MDZ) has now announced that CEO Geoff Robertson has increased his shareholding in the company to 6,683,188 shares (0.52%) following the purchase of 3,623,188 shares at 0.138p each. Good news? Er…
