EXPOSE: Technology Minerals another spoof release, are its shareholders dumb enough to fall for it? Yes they are!
Drowning in the stench of fraudster Chris Cleverly, the first cousin of our esteemed Home Secretary and fearless fighter of fraud James, Technology Minerals (TM1) has issued another ramptastic and wholly misleading RNS. It seems to have fooled some of the morons…- By Tom Winnifrith |

BREAKING: Supply@Me Capital – VE Chain deal terminated, any chance of an RNS?
In my note yesterday on the insolvent fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME), I looked at the various inventory monetisation deals that Supply had actually resulted in inventory monetisations, ignoring all the potential deals highlighted such as the Captive Bank, the Fintech bank and Stormharbour Securities (now in administration) funding which never materialised.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Some bears are on the pitch, they think it’s all over…Horizonte Minerals after hours ‘fess up – TIMBER
Issuing yesterday’s car crash release after hours was a bit sneaky but you can expect Horizonte Minerals (HZM) shares to collapse today and if you can sell for more than 0p, the now inevitable end game, you should do so. Sorry Gary Newman, BB savant PL et al, we bears, myself, Evil Banksta and Lucian have been vindicated and it is ouzo’s all round for us. The news is devastating.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

Why send me this release? And what does it mean? An ESG jargon bingo winner
I have no idea why I was sent this press release. And I also struggle to understand what it is all about. For those who enjoy woke gibberish it will, I suspect, offer some delight and will help you score highly on ESG catchword bingo. Enjoy. “Breaking Barriers: Gender Lens Investing reshaping financial landscapes”- By Tom Winnifrith |

Dialight – 2023 results, anything to do with the CEO “step down… with immediate effect”?…

Supply@Me Capital – exploring the supposed bull case for this technically insolvent fraud
In the interests of balance as I am a fair minded sort of chap, I bring you a note in which I explore the bull case, as expounded on various bulletin boards, for holding shares in Supply@ME Capital (SYME). In this analysis, just like the Bulletin Board Morons, I ignore the cash crises impacting Supply, Regtech Open (RTOP) and The Avantgarde Group and Alessandro Zamboni’s inability to deliver on the majority of his promises. I admit that these are massive elephants in the room but I am trying to show balance. I am, as always, just too much of a nice guy.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Private Eye may be illiterate but it recognizes an “influential investment website” when it sees one
Thanks to kind reader A, I bring you a page from this week’s Private Eye where it appears to recognize the good work done by this website even if it cannot actually spell our name. Poor Uncle Chris, who co-founded the Eye, will yet again spin in his grave. The article concerns the woes of struck off dentist Ajan Rejinald which we have exposed on this website and which the Eye is now regurgitating. As is always the case, but especially with the Novacyt (NCYT) trial looming, anyone owning shares in Rejinald’s Roquefort (ROQ) needs their head examining.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Revisiting the hidden auditor warnings from Canadian Overseas
Reading through my articles from three months ago as I try to weed out historic typos, I was struck by this one on Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) regarding an explicit warning from its auditors for I debated this matter at regular intervals with, now impoverished, morons on twitter.- By Tom Winnifrith |

CAP-XX – from patent infringement action “optimistic of the company's prospects” last year to now not even appealing the verdict against it!
Having been “optimistic of the company's prospects in this matter” of a patent infringement action against now Tesla subsidiary Maxwell Technologies, supercapacitors and energy management systems company CAP-XX (CPX) announced in December that “the jury has affirmed that CAP-XX patents were invalid… Whilst CAP-XX is disappointed with this decision, it is in discussions with its attorneys to agree the appropriate next steps. While… focus on the key short-term actions to maximise sales and deliver profitability”. So what of now from the company a “Cessation of appeals process”-titled announcement?- By Steve Moore |

EXPOSE: Wildcat is taking the piss yet again - tell us more about the Waterford Group
If Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) was on the AIM sewer a Nomad would need to approve its RNS releases and even London’s Worst Nomad, Roland “Fatty” Cornish, who is celebrating lent by having only 11 courses rather than 12 at luncheon, would not sign off on the crap the company pumps out. But it is on the Sub Standard list so it can make statements that appear just not to be true or are, at best inaccurate and questionable and the regulators at the FCA will jerk off on ESG porn and do nothing about it at all. Today is a scorcher.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Those who threaten legal action hoist a red flag: Andrew Bell & Red Rock
Reading through my articles from three months ago, to weed out typos, I was struck by THIS ONE about Red Rock Resources (RRR) when the shares were 0.1425p. The shares are now just 0.0825p despite the appointment of Mr. David Lenigas as a special consultant tasked with ramping the share price on twitter and telegram, oops I meant “tasked with creating sustainable shareholder value.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Currys – a bid in the hand but another in the bush, roadsweeper Chris Bailey vindicated!
A celebratory cheese & honey mustard toastie, veg bhaji flatbread or Mozzarella & Cheddar bites today for Chris Bailey perhaps, as a 62p per share possible offer proposal and other possible offer interest is confirmed for a fellow company he wrote about late last year at a 50p and below share price.

How to raise MINUS £250 by issuing shares!
It is neither here nor there as the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) is technically insolvent. It is still yet to tell us whether Alessandro Zamboni’s insolvent AvantGarde has coughed up the £500,000 due by January 31 or another £1.5 million owing before that. So, I suggest that Zamboni has not paid a cent. However, there is an RNS today.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Nate Anderson of Hindenburg serves up a reminder of why anyone owning Genflow Biosciences is off the scale insane
My bearishness about Standard Listed Genflow Biosciences (GENF) started the day of its January 2022 IPO at 8p. The shares are now just 1.5p. The company was created by convicted pump and dump penny share fraudster Ron Bauer and his long time known associate Adrian Beeston who still - they claim- own 20% with an effective in price of 0.2p. Bauer is wanted on new charges in the US and faces 85 years in the slammer if, again, found guilty as you can see HERE.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: I just hate being lied to
Yes i did have a long chat with Harry Adams of Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) yesterday but I was not lied to and, put it this way, I am not going to sell my shares. I also ad a long chat with someone close to BlueBird Merchant Ventures (BMV) and am not selling there either. It is all go. I start with the lying and it was blatant lying by the BBC on Ukraine. Then it is onto how morally indefensible it is for loss making companies to spaff cash on vanity, ref John Lewis and what was Wandisco (WAND). Finally with reference to those high yielding FTSE 100 stocks, I am in no doubt that Labour will bollocks it all up even more than the useless Tories but think that risk is also discounted.- By Tom Winnifrith |
