PYC

Physiomics – “would like to update the market on current trading”. I doubt it ‘would like to’…

Mathematical modelling drug development consultancy Physiomics (PYC) commences a latest update with that it “would like to update the market on current trading”. Good news then?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - how on earth did Wishbone's Richard Poulden get into Oxford?

I suspect many say the same about me. I start with Wishbone Gold (WSBN) then address Lansdowne Oil & Gas (LOGP), UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) and more lack of Turkish Delight for big Dave Lenigas and the other promoters, Eurasia Mining (EUA) and Cellular Goods (CBX) where I am being spammed on Twitter by poltroonish supporters.

Empresaria – having in August last year been “optimistic about the year ahead”, how’s an AGM trading update now?

In August last year international staffing group Empresaria (EMR) was “optimistic about the year ahead as the demand for talent is strong despite the global macroeconomic uncertainties”. With an AGM trading update from the group today, how is that playing out?

Video: The Recipe for $2700 Gold

Writer Jesse Felder says that Federal Reserve policy aimed to create a wealth effect through printing money, has only generated bubbles and the illusion of growth. He goes on to explain that the more money a country prints, the less attractive that currency becomes to other countries. Please take note, the entire UK political class.

TINGO Part 1: The Rogues Gallery

I have never thought that the theory “there is no such thing as bad publicity” holds much water. The company I shall expose in a two part series supports my belief. It is currently valued at more than $500 million, or, arguably, far more on a fully diluted basis, and is shortable. This is a zero and one should be short.

I still don’t eat much meat but maybe I should continue buying Cranswick shares

A year ago, I concluded an article by observing that “Hull is not about Lib Dem success, Philip Larkin poetry or being the ‘City of Culture 2017’...it is clearly all about Cranswick (CWK) share potential!”. Before we get onto today’s rather good update from the company which is “passionate about producing only the best quality food, efficiently and sustainably in well invested facilities across the UK”, I am very grateful for the reader who pointed out that in my analysis of Hull I had missed out that “Siemens has its blade factory there” and “Peter Levy from Look North of course should not be overlooked as lead ambassador”. I would therefore like to take this opportunity to add those extra insights and now back onto Cranswick.

Eneraqua Technologies – “pleased to announce” results. Er, what about the massive profit warning for the current year?!

Previously writing on energy and water systems company Eneraqua Technologies (ETP), in March with the shares heading down towards 300p I concluded that, with client budget pressures, how reassuring is the stated order book for the near-term ahead really? Considering also the valuation, avoid. The company today states that it “is pleased to announce its preliminary results for the year ended 31 January 2023”, so what of the shares currently more than 30% lower at around 180p?!

Lansdowne Oil & Gas – was I wrong to be bearish? a shareholder writes

I argued, as the shares collapsed yesterday, that my long term bear thesis on Lansdowne Oil & Gas (LOGP) was now vindicated, But a shareholder, who is no fool, thinks I may be wrong. I am prepared to accept that I am sometimes wrong so for balance, the punter writes:

CTEA

Catenae Innovation – Court News (Or Not!) On Hyperneph Software

AIM-listed and last seen technically insolvent (for FY22) Catneae Innovation (CTEA) has updated the market regarding ongoing Court proceedings over Hyperneph Software. I fear that this may be a ramp…..

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Some sanity from Ireland, madness in the UK and why I smell and the Mrs suffers

I start with the domestic issues caused by the lack of gas and how the Mrs is the real victim after my 18 mile walk yesterday. Think of her sleeping next to a smelly me yesterday, her suffering and then donate to Rogue Bloggers for Woodlarks HERE. In the podcast I discuss Chill Brands (CHLL), Supply@ME Capital (SYME) now valued at almost £100 million, Bidstack (BIDS), Eden Research (EDEN) and Lansdowne Oil & Gas (LOGP).

Nuformix – “unaudited” 12 months results, why the change in accounting reference date I wonder?!

Last week I wrote on pharmaceutical development company Nuformix (NFX) “absolutely delighted with the data we've generated”. Er, how’s the balance sheet now?”, concluding still a financial red flags fluttering Sell. What about now following “unaudited results for the twelve months ended 31 March 2023 following the change in the company's accounting reference date from 31 March to 30 September”?

Gulf Keystone carries plenty of political risk until production resumes, but the upside makes it worth taking at this stage - speculative buy

As you would expect, Gulf Keystone (GKP) has been severely impacted by the suspension of oil exports from Kurdistan to Turkey, following Iraq’s victory in an international arbitration case which deemed that some aspects of the deal between the other two parties were illegal.
SRAD

Stelrad – 2023 “pleased with the encouraging start”. Hmmm – how ‘pleasing’ and ‘encouraging’ really?

Describing itself as “a leading specialist manufacturer and distributor of steel panel and other designer radiators in the UK, Europe and Turkey”, Stelrad Group (SRAD) has issued a trading update including that it is “pleased that the positive start to the current financial year outlined at our full year results has continued” and that it expects “volumes in the second half of the year stronger than the first half”. So what of a currently little changed share price around 117.5p in response?

David Lenigas you old spoofer: Vinanz is going to get a dual OTC US listing, rampity ramp!

Vinanz (BTC) The sub scale bitcoin miner which does crazy deals with pals of its founder David Lenigas listed on the Aquis lobster pot at 3p. Its shares are today, despite Lenigas personally hoovering up any (loose but wise) sellers, still just 3p to sell as nobody is buying the Lenigas bull. Since Lenigas and his pals like Richard Poulden got in at 0.25p they don’t care but instead the company serves up another bullshit spoof.

BREAKING: Photo article: Chill Brands and its UK distributor – Ray Ingleby calls me!

On Saturday, Ray, the owner of The Vaping Group Ltd – the new UK distributor for Chill Brands (CHLL) nicotine free vapes – sent various messages about how he wanted to talk urgently. After 4 onerous hours of family chauffeuring duty, I called back and we had a long chat. It was most illuminating.

The deep yawn continues for me at Metro Bank

I hate to break the news to Metro Bank (MTRO), but I am never going to be one of its customers. A few years back, when the company had a share price of thirty, then twenty and then below ten quid, it used to make quite a few appearances on these pages as a number of us thought (correctly) that it was a dog stock. There have been a bunch of more interesting stocks to think about for the last few years, but I was reminded again about the apparently “highest rated high street bank for overall service quality for personal customers and the best bank for service in-store for personal and business customers, in the Competition and Markets Authority’s Service Quality Survey in February 2023” when I read about an “Admission and Listing of new ordinary shares” this morning.

BREAKING EXPOSE: TruSpine: The Link Between The CEO And Secured Lender Hub 2021 Ltd

Oh dearie me. Another day, anther revelation – this time of a link between Aquis-listed TruSpine (TSP) CEO Laurence Strauss and Hub 2021 Ltd – with which Strauss signed a debenture over its (claimed) IP more than two months after the announcement of a loan (which the company at the time claimed had already been made). Ooopsadaisie….

Hello Share Givers. How about considering an outfit that owns underwater cables? Digital 9 Infrastructure (DGI9) has a network of wirework that improves internet access between the USA and here. And the more the net is put to work, the less the impact on the planet. Saving paper, transport and so on.

MyHealthChecked – news flow potential starts to be delivered; “agreement with Boots for extended retail launch”

Writing on consumer home-testing healthcare company MyHealthChecked (MHC) last week with the shares at the now-equivalent of 19.5p (following a 15-to-1 shares consolidation in between), we concluded positively with there having been looking exciting news flow potential imminently. Now an “Agreement with Boots for extended retail launch” announcement – and the shares are currently up to 26p, almost 2p in old money.
