Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
Naturally my eye is initially drawn to the swimsuit special at the top of this fine Australian publication, the Herald Sun, which a reader has winged over to me. But no, apparently it is the lead story...it seems that even the natives in the land where everyone is descended from a convict, are getting pissed off with Slater & Gordon (SHH) as it hurtles towards bankruptcy and a 0 cent target price.

I wonder who that UK firm might be, the investors should prepare for some entrepreneurial sodomy, and lube up and take it in the rear. Put some shorts to make it more difficult., metaphorically speaking.

That’s brilliant, redemption can sometimes take a while. Could this bust S & G?
What with this and two hat tips from Fool and Telegraph, nice one

Slater & Gordon managing director Andrew Grech described the Quindell acquisition as a ‘transformational’ opportunity.
Well, the Muppet, at least got that part right! Just not quite in the way he was hoping!

The key question is are they going to fire the Muppet board and try to get some of their dosh back before QPP, now WTG, give it away to shareholders.

I like the Target ad underneath it, it’s logo looks like a big fat zero :)
And I like those swimsuits of course.
