US Oil & Gas - the worthless shares are trading again, GXG shows its regulators are as useless as the rest

GXG Markets has concluded its investigation into US Oil & Gas and given it the all clear. Jeepers are all regulators imbeciles? It was demonstrated that on repeated occassions USOP made statements that were simlly not true and were directly contradicted by authorities in the USA. That has been well documented here. As such we can only conclude that misleading investors is all well and dandy on GXG just as it is on the AIM casino. Really I cannot see what the point is of playing it straight anymore?

US Oil & Gas - so when is the report into your lies due? When is insolvency?

Once upon a time US Oil & Gas (USOP) was the darling of Bulletin Board loons. Okay it gotr booted off ISDX and had completely worthless assets but it huffed and puffed and its shares raced ahead on GXG markets. But as it teeters on the brink of insolvency surely it should update us all - if only to give us a good laugh - on how the regulatory enquiries into its numerous lies are going and on how close it is to bankruptcy.

US Oil & Gas – the fraudsters are delusional

Another day and another statement is issued from the madhouse that is the bunker, I mean boardroom at US Oil & Gas (USOP). These folks are delusional. Their Company is also, by my sums, pretty much insolvent within weeks.

The US Oil & Gas fraud – GXG markets shows up AIM for the casino it really is

We have many, many times accused Bulletin Board darling US Oil & Gas (USOP) of being a total fraud run by a serial liar Brian McDonnell. Wee Brian has huffed and puffed in private to deluded shareholders about taking legal action against me but he has not done so because he is a proven liar and his company is a proven fraud and the little shit knows it. The latest news from the GXG market where USOP shares remain suspended really shows what a casino AIM has become.

US Oil & Gas – More Lies: Target Price 0p

As I have demonstrated on a number of occasions US Oil & Gas (USOP) lies to the sad band of financial masochists on its shareholder list on a serial basis and its CEO young Brian McDonnell is a liar. In that vein I bring you its latest release from Friday which is par for the course. i.e total bollocks.

US Oil & Gas – Last trade was at 34p – get out now while you can – target 0p.

Last time I warned about the GXG listed POS that is US Oil & Gas (USOP) was on July 28 HERE when the market cap was £20 million. Based on the last trade at 34p it is now £13.98 million. It is overvalued by £13.98 million sell while you can. My target price remains 0p

US Oil & Gas – Conversation with Alexander David Securities…developing: New target price 0p.

Yesterday I accused US Oil & Gas (USOP) CEO Brian McDonnell of being a liar and a fraud and said that he should go to prison. I invite him to sue me for libel as this is a watertight case and such a case would only hasten his destruction I also pointed out that this raises questions for US Oil’s retained broker and advisor Alexander David Securities. And guess who called me this morning?

Brian McDonnell of US Oil & Gas you are a liar and a fraud and should go to prison

Telling investors something that is untrue in an approved announcement (an RNS) as you endeavour to issue shares to raise extra cash is not good. Not only is it a lie but it is an attempt at fraud since you are raising money on the basis of a lie. I hereby accuse Brian McDonnell of US Oil & Gas (USOP) of being a liar and a fraud. He should go to prison. And if it does not resign first thing on Monday its advisers Alexander David Securities is a willing party to that fraud. It should quit at once. Brian can sue me for libel if he wishes but this is a slam dunk. The little crook is exposed.

PLCs that are Good Investments Do not issue an RNS at 5.52 PM

US Oil & Gas (USOP) once issued an RNS at 10 PM on a Friday – that Liam Mcgrattan is a comic genius. But he serves to demonstrate a valid point: if a company starts issuing RNS statements well after 4.30 PM this is a red flag that you should not be invested. Not a reason on its own but the sort of red flag that catches the eye.

The long running farce that is GXG listed US Oil & Gas (USOP) is a gift that keeps on giving and at the centre of it all is the greatest Irish comic genius since Dave Allen, CEO wee Brian McDonnell. “It’s the way I tell ‘em.” No that was Frank Carson but wee Brian might use that line too.

USOP Comedy Genius Liam McGrattan is coming to the AIM Cesspit – you could not make it up!

Well this is the acid test for AIM – will it accept a listing from Liam McGrattan the Irish fellow who has brought us the stockmarket disasters US Oil & Gas (USOP), TeknoMining and many others. If the Cesspit allows Liam to list IMC Exploration then it is officially a joke market.

US Oil & Gas – More Jam Tomorrow from this POS

Today we finally have an update on the state of play at US Oil & Gas (USOP) – possibly the worst stock ever to gain a public markets listing. Not by choice does US come clean but eventually it had to serve up (predictably dire and predictably, as yet, unaudited) results for the year to September 30^th 2013.

The US Oil & Gas Scandal - More Urgent Questions

More from the growing US Oil & Gas (USOP) scandal. The Eblana1 workover 2 daily reports have now been released by the Nevada Division of Minerals and they're a mystery. They can be seen here Apart from the fact that key daily reports seem to be missing (including the reports immediately after an alleged oil flow), the data we can see, and the timeline, just doesn't add up.

US Oil & Gas Announcement – Sheer Comedy

When US Oil & Gas goes tits up, its CEO Brian McDonnell should become a comedian. He really is very good. As our fellow Irishman Frank Carson used to say “It’s the way I tell ‘em.” The latest press release dated 23rd May has had me in stitches for days. It is comic genius. Oddly out there in la la USOPian land some folks seem to believe it. That is less funny.

US Oil & Gas – Award winning Bullshit

The good news for US Oil & gas is that it still has cash. The bad news is that it is going to spunk it away on another exploration well in Hot Creek Nevada. The non-news is that CEO Brian McDonnell is still spouting complete horse shit in an investor Q&A published today.

P&G does not publicly disclose a definitive total number of Senior Vice-Presidents (SVPs) across the entire organisation.However, there is an important distinction:Corporate leadership: P&G's published global leadership team lists around 35 senior executives, many with CEO, President or Chief Officer titles. Wider organisation: P&G operates globally across numerous business units and regions, with additional SVPs below the corporate leadership team. Independent organisational data identifies hundreds of executives across P&G, but doesn't provide a reliable, complete SVP count. For Gill Whitty-Collins, the more important point is that she wasn't just one of hundreds of middle-ranking SVPs. She held a very senior global role in P&G Beauty, with responsibility for major international brands.That is a meaningful distinction when assessing her appointment to SBTX.

I agree Cellular Goods is a fair point to raise but you are throwing the baby out with the bath water, poor judgement, yes, bad NED, not necessarily. We all make mistakes, she deserves a chance before you throw her under the bus, her experience in the sector says so.As for group think, I would not be happy with that on the BOD but again you are just speculating, wait for proof.

Clutching at straws. She clearly has over 25 years of relevant experience with a blue chip company and has been appointed for her commercial nous. She has sat on several boards and she is will be an asset on mine.

The record of Cellular Goods and of Bixby/Edwards was flagged up on thus website well before Gill joined and as such joining shows a spectacular lack of judgement /desparation and that is pertinent. How many SCPs foes P&G have BTW?You may be happy with GroupThink on a board but as BP showed that is a recipe for disaster. I am throwing back at those who have demanded diversity a demand for diversity!

I think this article does the new NED a considerable disservice and confuses political and demographic diversity with commercial competence and diversity of thought.The Cellular Goods connection is a fair point to raise, and her contribution there deserves scrutiny. However, suggesting that simply accepting a NED position at a company that subsequently failed means she has "no standards" is an extraordinary leap. Where is the evidence that she was responsible for, or failed to challenge, the decisions behind its problems?Why ignore her other 26 years at Procter & Gamble? As a Senior Vice-President, she had responsibility for major international brands including Olay, Pantene and Always. That is substantial experience in brand building, marketing and commercial execution.Surely that's exactly the sort of experience SBTX needs, particularly given my concerns about AxisBiotix and the company's wider commercial performance?I also disagree that a predominantly female Board automatically lacks diversity of thought. Different professional backgrounds, experience and the willingness to challenge assumptions matter far more than someone's sex, skin colour or political beliefs.Ultimately, I don't care where the directors went to university or what their politics are. I care whether they can deliver.Can Rachel improve performance, can Gill help unlock the commercial potential of the business, and can Alyson restore confidence in governance? Gill's appointment guarantees nothing, but based on her career I think SBTX has made a very good appointment.Let's judge the Board on results, not demographics or presumed political beliefs.

We have to accept that “society” produces what society wants in every age.I note in my age group a constant desire to reproduce what we were used to.However there is a complete failure to grasp that the next generation do not want a continuation of what has gone before.As for skins we await results and guidance.
