Petropavlovsk (POG) has today issued a statement “Events in Ukraine.” After this I would feel dirty owning its shares, it shows a company that is morally bankrupt.

Hello Share Runners. One of the biggest Footsie fallers because of the war is one of my financial favourites. Legal & General (LGEN) has dropped rather a lot. Before the invasion it was not far short of 300p. As the tanks rolled it has dropped to below 250p. Yet, this could be one of the fastest shares to recover in the usual rally that seems to come a month or so after a new war breaks out.

What does your listed client have to hide? The truth I suspect. But two days of silence on this Standard listed POS really is not good.  I look at what is happening in Ukraine and what happens next and suggest that some Ukranians are now not being sensible or reasonable. I cover Omega Diagnostics (ODX), Amigo (AMGO), Guild ESports (GILD) and Predator Oil & Gas (PRD).

Previously writing on ‘Wildwood’ and ‘dim t’ casual dining restaurants company Tasty (TAST), in January with the shares at 5.25p I concluded ‘I suggest it still currently a lack-of-financial-specifics avoid and a further caution on recent hospitality sector trading’. So what of a further trading update today?…

Nigel Somerville’s hero Jordan Roy Byrne has come out with a big call: gold to $4,000, silver to $100 by 2024 with a stagflationary recession on its way.  The great man says that…

Yesterday afternoon at 3.40 PM AIM sewer dog Omega Diagnostics (ODX) stunned the market with news that shareholders had committed financial hara kiri by voting down GM Resolutions to allow the proposed £5.48 million placing and open offer. That was madness, what followed was utter madness. 

A “Directors’ Share Purchases/PDMR Shareholding”-titled announcement from marketing automation and customer engagement software group dotDigital (DOTD) and the shares currently up to 65.2p. Good news then?…

Currently the conflict in Ukraine is a huge risk for any companies operating there or in Russia, and even more so with further sanctions being put in place and proposed.

I see this morning that Gold hit around $2025 per oz as the Ukrainian crisis and the associated sanctions continued to hit the market. The price has since eased a little to $2009 but this is the highest the yellow metal has been since the record high at $2063 in August 2020 and I don’t see anything to hold it back beyond a short bout of profit-taking.

Biopharmaceutical data analytics company IXICO (IXI) has announced it has been selected for an open-label Phase I/II dose finding study, emphasising it “reflects the confidence of our clients in the use of our services”. So what of a share price slightly ahead to 43.5p, but comparing to 58.5p in December?…

I am sure many people have almost given up on picking stocks and related investment efforts but  as I noted here on Sunday  if you are not being greedy about looking for investment opportunities when the global markets are fearful, then let an investment company mention your pension and go to bed. As for individual stocks though, there are plenty of interesting things happening today…

Early this year we showed the shorted AIM shares at the start of 2022. How’s the performance (those in bold remain from 2021) as at the end of February?…

Hello Share Thrashers. The only sectors looking to be rising in the shadow of the war are mining and oil. Trident Royalties (TRR) has fingers in many mining pies, including gold. It’s share price has been tickling all-time highs but seems stable at the moment. That could change if gold continues to glow. Especially as the company has recently released some good news from the gold fields of California.

Having asked for readers tips for 2022 for the prize of 1/2 litre of Tom Winnifrith’s Greek Hovel olive oil (2022 harvest) HERE, the following is the end-February monthly update on performance (to be eligible needed to have selected, on a once per username basis, a buy & sell pick from the LSE, AIM casino or Aquis lobster pot and the stocks not to have been suspended at the commencement of 2022)…

The twitter meltdown, from the woman fleeing a High Court Arrest warrant, we reportedv earlier HERE, continues. Now Julie “under an FCA Criminal Investigation” Meyer wants the Police to crack down on this website for being terrorists.  If Ms Meyer ever does return to England to start a stretch inside and wants to appeal on grounds of insanity…. the evidence is below.

I am shortly off to Tesco then will be in action as the family cook. Ahead of that I look at Deepverge (DVRG) run by the arse Gerry Brandon, wondering which will come first, the next trading warning or the next bailout placing, at Mirriad (MIRI) where I disagree with comrade Stacey, Amigo (AMGO), Chill Brands (CHLL), Jubilee Metals (JLP), Supply@ME Capital (SYME), Cellular Goods (CBX), oil, gold and Ukraine and finally at Argo Blockchain’s (ARB) latest news. 

That is Nigel’s problem. He is just too much of a nice guy as he showed with his piece earlier on the Tern/Wyld cash crisis. I am not so charitable.  I am not a nice guy. The crisis is far worse than even Nigel suggests.

UK provider of IT and communications services to businesses and public sector organisations, CloudCoCo (CLCO) has announced results for its year ended 30th September 2021, emphasising a now “significantly enlarged customer base and enhanced capabilities from acquisitions”. So what of a currently unchanged 1.70p share price?…

The FCA has today indicated that it will not object to the proposed recapitalization and customer redress package proposed by loan shark Amigo (AMGO) but there are a few horrid caveats and a doubling of the share price to 6p is quite literally insane making this a slam dunk short. Here’s why.

For most of the last year, AIM-listed jam-tomorrow IoT investment company Tern plc (TERN) has survived because its supporters were truly sold on Tern’s portfolio being worth a multiple of the official NAV per share which allowed Tern to issue more and more shares like there is no tomorrow at a huge premium to NAV per share, even if at massive discounts to the prevailing share price. Until now.
