Notes from Underground – Most read articles for the week ending 13 January

By Darren Atwater | Sunday 14 January 2024


 


Here are the most read articles and the most listened-to Bearcasts over the past seven days. The most read non-Quiz, non-Tom article last week is Steve Moore with Zytronic – results argue “grounds for cautious optimism over the medium term”. Er, what about the near term?… at No 4 or No 9 including Bearcasts and year-end tips.

The most-read ShareProphets articles this week were:

  1. Three on AIM Death Row, Two strapped to the Gurney this Morning but what about Advanced Oncotherapy?
    Welcome to death row on the curious world of the AIM sewer. Waiting for that final walk to the gurney were Clem Chambers Online Blockchain (OBC), obvious wrongun’s Tintra (TNT) and Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) which should have had its last meal on December 31. Today: two took that final walk.

  2. BREAKING: Canadian Overseas Petroleum: a lawyer writes
    Not just any lawyer but a very senior and respected lawyer, a KC.

  3. Breaking: Email Exchange with Stuart Ashman as his Nomad demands no more interviews
    This is Orwellian and shows that Giles Balleny of Nomad Cavendish (formerly Finncrap & Cenkos pre merger) is either thick as pig shit or morally bankrupt or both. Given he works for Cavendish I reckon it is both. He has ordered Stuart Ashman of Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) to record no more videos with me.

  4. Zytronic – results argue “grounds for cautious optimism over the medium term”. Er, what about the near term?…
    Touch sensors manufacturer Zytronic (ZYT) is a former HotStockRockets tip, though where it was suggested to switch into something else with the shares still above 100p last May considering the company’s near-term outlook. The shares most recently closed at 80p, and now what of the company’s year ended 30th September 2023 results currently seeing them down at 60p?

  5. BREAKING: Do these scumbags have no shame: Dave Richards MBE of Wandisco infamy is back with another venture
    Some folks have just got no shame: that vicar bird from the Post Office with her CBE, Julie “Lingerie on Expenses” Meyer CBE and, it seems Dave Richards MBE of Wandisco (WAND) infamy. Less than a year from the near collapse of, once $1 billion capitalized Unicorn, Wandisco, he is back on the scene. You will remember that Wandisco almost folded after it emerged…

  6. Gym Group – emphasises continued “positive trading trends”. Er, what about underlying net cash generation?…
    UK “leading low-cost gym” business The Gym Group (GYM) states that it “is pleased to announce that the positive trading trends highlighted in our H1 results have continued throughout the remainder of the year”. However, on those results and a slightly further down to 111.8p share price, I questioned how well positioned it was to ‘take advantage of growth opportunities’. So what of the trading update today and a current 106.2p share price?

  7. Winnileaks EXCLUSIVE: Three Letters from the Canadian Overseas Shareholder Action Group to the FCA, advisors and the company
    For all the bluster I am more and more convinced that the Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) Shareholder Action Group (SAG) are just a bunch of crybaby losers who cannot accept that they ignored numerous warnings from myself and others ( abusing me on social media for being wrong) about how bad the assets and management of Canadian were and how it would end in tears. The letter it has sent to the FCA is to a generic address. That is a sign that these losers are just scrabbling around. The failure of the SAG to understand how a death spiral works and what a breach of covenant means is another sign of how utterly clueless they are. Anyhow, thanks to Winnileaks, I have three emails sent in the past 14 days. 1 to the FCA, 2 to advisors and a third to the company. Enjoy.

  8. BREAKING: Zeus Capital finally ‘fesses to appalling results
    Zeus Capital is unlisted but is one of the more sensible and well run City Nomads and brokers. But its results for the year to March 31 2023 finally appeared at Companies House on January 6 2024 and are truly appalling. It bought out rival Arden in January so you might have thought that revenues were up…think again.

  9. Kefi Gold & Copper – Tulu Kapi project finance package further progresses, STRONG BUY to at least double or treble
    Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) has issued a “Significant Progress on Tulu Kapi Finance Package”-titled announcement. So what is this reported “significant progress”? It is real progress.

  10. Grafton – 2023 “to slightly exceed top end of analysts' forecasts”. Er, what about the forecasts from the half-year results though?
    Building materials distribution and DIY retail group Grafton (GFTU) has issued a “Trading Update” headlined “Full Year Operating Profit to Slightly Exceed Top End of Analysts' Forecasts”. So what of the shares currently nudging up just above 900p comparing to towards 940p just last month?

The most-listened to Bearcasts this week were:

  1. Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: a new chapter of my life starts today
    I start with a few domestic matters before discussing bank debt ref Horizonte Minerals (HZM) and Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL). Then it is onto Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Ben's Creek (BEN), Argo Blockchain (ARB) and in detail Technology Minerals (TM1)

  2. Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: a morning with the Shipmans for me, and very good news from Kefi, it could be a ten bagger
    I start with my medical issues and seeing the very efficient Shipmans in Chester. Mind you old Harold was very efficient too. Then it is onto Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Cellular Goods (CBX), Reabold (RBD), Procook (PROC), Mercantile Ports & Logistics (MPL) and the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and what the FCA should do next.

  3. Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Here is a 1 billion quid plus stock told you to short, you really can short and you should still short
    In today's bearcast I look at Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL), Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO), Tiger Royalties (TIR), Jubilee Metals (JLP), African Pioneer (AFP), Verditek (VDTK) and Oxford Nanopore (ONT).

  4. Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Slapping down young Gary Newman
    I start with a couple of family matters and an apology to one listener. Then it is onto Canadian Overseas (COPL), Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Versarien (VRS), Cellular Goods (CBX) and the FCA, Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) and naughty Gary, Ben's Creek (BEN), truly a short of the year and finally MyHealthChecked (MHC).

  5. Tom Winnifrith Birthday Bearcast - 56 not out!In today's podcast I look at Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) and the bell-ends at Cavendish, Cellular Goods (CBX)< Premier Miton (PMI), Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL), UK Oil & Gas (UKOG), Burberry (BRBY) on behalf of road sweeper Chris Bailey, Chill Brands (CHLL) and Supply@ME Capital (SYME)
