Ho Ho Ho. Finally i wish you all a Merry Christmas, none of this PC seasons greetings bollocks from me.

Merry Christmas Tom and all the rest of the writers at ShareProphets, thanks for all the great content produced for us during the year. I will be checking in on Xmas day (briefly) so any articles will be read gratefully!
Wish all readers and staff a very profitable new year.

Hi Tom,
Just to let you know over on the LSE asylum a poster by the alias Camkite has allegedly convinced some LSE asylum seekers to pay him a 1500 GBP Fee for his financial trading ‘advice’, one of the loons on the OXS BB has admitted paying him a total of 4500 GBP for his ‘advice’ to buy the pure gamble of OXS that has been in arbitration and was recently suspended.
Could you do a piece on this to discourage some of these punters in the asylum from giving their hard earned money away.
Keep up the great work.

Have a great Christmas tom and everybody at share prophets.
Keep up the great work

Tom, you mention fraud, the Fraud Act 2006, fraud by false representation, fraud by failing to disclose information, and fraud by abuse of position.
I would put it to you that fraud is rife in the markets, no question, not least yours truly.

Have a great Christmas Mr Tom,
“Was blind but now can see”… thanks for pointing out I was a knob head being in LGO.. but way too late having lost a packet but luckily not everything. So now realising there is money to be made shorting the fraudsters you so cleverly point out. But why do IG NOT ALLOW shorting on INTQ after you have shown the world (except the blinded folded £10ionaires) that it is a BAG OF SHITE?
Love the honesty and ALL THE RESEARCH you must do to give us our ‘Daily Bread’!
(Thought I’d throw that on in because it is Christmas and Jesus and all that.. YUK)!
Looking forward to 2106 and more dire companies exposed.
Enjoy the break… (that you do not seem to have, due to your daily bulletins)!

All best wishes for Christmas and a Peaceful Prosperous New Year.

Glad you have seen the light mate, the only way to make money on AIM is on the short side, loads of dogs on there begging to be shorted to duck and to be honest most of them won’t survive the coming depression.
Re INTQ, it was shortable on IG for a while but after the mini squeeze it isn’t. It may come back again soon if there are more sellers but after GBO we don’t know if they will allow it because it is a definite zero drachma stock.
Welcome again to ISIS (International Shorters In Shares).

Happy Christmas Tom, (No political bullshit from me either)
May you continue to prosper next year.
While I do not take anything anyone says as having any validity, I do take note of your warnings and I would say you have saved me money over the year – Thanks

Merry Xmas from us all, and looking forward to 2016 of which I think will be a very interesting macroeconomic year.
Perhaps it will be the year Shareprophets becomes more noted and mainstream, but thanks for the excellent work you and your team do and I’m sure 2016 will be hugely successful.
All the best…..
