Big Sofa April Update

Overall, I suppose, things are going the right way for now delisted Big Sofa (BST) but just a bit more slowly than we might have hpoed. Will we loyal shareholders get a takeover within 18 months? I still hope so. But I am not going to count any chickens just yet. Anyhow as I can’t sell my shares I have no choice but to wait. Here is the April update from CEO Kirsty Fuller.

Explosive: The Bulletin Board poster Neill Ricketts of Versarien tried to gag with fascist lawyers's letter responds

On Monday I published the fascist and third rate lawyers letter sent on behalf of loathsome Versarien (VRS) boss Neill Ricketts to a Bulletin Board critic.  Ricketts has nmot got a hope in hell of winning in court and the disclosure process would ruin him and destroy Versarien. the critic knows that and so has responded to the muddle headed 12th rate lawyers acting for Ricketts. That response is below.

Sylvania has been the perfect example of how investing in small mining companies can pay off long term - if you pick the right one!

I often see people saying that you can’t actually invest inshares in  AIM miners and the only way to play them is by trading the swings they have along the way.

SYS1

System1 Group – trading update… but what was the actual bottom-line performance?

An announcement from System1 Group (SYS1) commences that this “Advertising Effectiveness Agency, is today providing a Trading Update for its financial year to the end of March 2021 ahead of its results announcement on 29 June 2021”. This includes “sales picked up faster than adjusted operating costs” – and the shares have currently responded to 240p, 26% higher. Justified?…

Gunsynd & Chris Akers jump on the SPAC bandwagon but with an unlisted vehicle – is that a ramptastic IPO on the way?

Say what you like about serial penny share spiv Chris Akers but if there is a bandwagon to be jumped on he is always the first to hop on board and usually, having taken his grubby turn as gullible private investors pile in, Akers is the first to exit. And that brings us to SPACs and one in particular.

BIOM

Biome Technologies – I having previously questioned share price rise, now trading update...

Previously writing on bioplastics and radio frequency technologies company Biome (BIOM) I questioned coffee-pod filtration material contract, share price rise justified?. That was to 375p. The shares last closed at 380p but are currently down to 350p on the back of a trading update. What’s this latest then?…

PALM

Panther Metals – just a bit grubby

I am aware that a number of my colleagues view Panther Metals (PALM) shares as jolly cheap and they may well be right. However today’s news of a small placing just looks grubby and I don’t like the smell of it. Let me explai

Crash

Video: Leverage will Create the Largest Global Financial Crisis in History

Asset manager David Hunter does not mince his words. Equities are in a late stage melt up but will then, he predicts, fall by 80% as we go from a global deflationary bust followed by an inflationary recovery cycle. We will see dollar weakness now followed by a big dollar rally during the bust.

ZOO

This Zoo Never Shut in the Lockdowns and could Now Open Up to More Success

Hello, Share Troopers. Another company set to do well both now and in the future accelerated by the covid crisis looks to be Zoo Digital Group (ZOO). I’ve commended this Sheffield outfit to you before, and its latest trading update supports my optimism. This is a company which is cloud based, but before you stop reading allow me to spell out my belief in a rosy future.

W7L

Warpaint London – sales ahead, but what about the overall balance sheet?...

A trading update from cosmetics company Warpaint London (W7L) includes that it “is pleased to report that improved trading has continued to be experienced in the first quarter of 2021… sales for the first three months of 2021 are ahead of the same period in 2020”. The shares have responded currently more than 13% higher to 123p, but what’s the detail?…

AAU

Ariana – Court Moves (or not….!) but the shares remain a BUY as we still await that Special Dividend

We seem to have been waiting for an eternity for the long-promised special dividend from AIM-listed Ariana Resources (AAU). At first there was due diligence, then Covid and now we are waiting for Ariana’s application to the Court to restructure its capital so as to allow the special dividend to go ahead….which has also been slowed by Covid. The company updated today:

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: A Christmas Day prize contest for you all

Post your entries in the comments section below. The prize is a signed photo of Darren Atwater in his swimming trunks and the contest concerns UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) which I discuss. I also mention Optibiotix (OPTI) en passant, explain how a Supply@ME Capital (SYME) acquisition works and look at Trainline (TRN). 

INX

i-nexus Global – latest news reinforces fundraising and management incentive concerns...

“Statement re Share Price Movement” from i-nexus Global (INX) – and the shares currently more than 20% lower, towards 12p. Uh oh…

Tick Tock, tick Tock – Remote Monitored Systems & Eurasia Mining

Time it goes by and yet there is no news of import from these two monumentally overvalued darlings of the Bulletin Board Moron community. The silence is deafening and that should be alarming even the most moronic or morons. Or maybe they are just too moronic…

Video: The manager of the world's most bearish hedge fund warns we live in the most dangerous time in financial history

Brian Hirschman is the Managing Partner of Hirschmann Partnership, dubbed by  ValueWalk as the “World’s Most Bearish Hedge Fund.”  He warns that all the bubbles have only grown in recent months and that the two biggest bubbles are bitcoin and residential real estate.

US tobacco market shocker for Imperial Brands and BAT?

I know that my view on the tobacco sector is not shared by everyone but that is why – despite never being a tobacco smoker – I have held (and made money investing in) shares in the sector. As I noted about my position in Imperial Brand (IMB) back in late March HERE, ‘the story here remains attractive’ – observing the modest rating and high dividend yield as well as ‘the remaining major tobacco sector names also getting involved with cannabis’. However Imperial Brands and British American Tobacco (BATS) shares are both down over five percent today, losing some of their recent gains. What is going on?

BREAKING: Why Neill Ricketts is such a prick or so badly advised by 9th rate lawyers in trying to gag a Bulletin Board critic – case precedent

Yesterday I published the fascist lawyer’s letter sent by 10th tier law firm Hugh Paddison of Cheltenham and explained why on matters of libel it makes no case at all – this is merely an attempt to bully a Bulletin Board poster into silence. But it gets worse for loathsome and disgraced AIM boss Neill Ricketts.

CHH

Churchill China – argues “well placed to build momentum”… but already priced-in?

Manufacturer of ceramic products Churchill China (CHH) has announced calendar year 2020 results including “revenues fell by 46% to £36.4m… Profit before exceptional items and tax £0.8m (2019: £11.2m)”. So why are the shares currently slightly further higher towards 1500p?…

The Armchair Games Revolution Continues to Fascinate and this Nifty Newcomer is Causing Waves

Hello Share Miners. It’s no surprise that armchair gamesters have grown during the lockdown. In terms of number and also bodyweight, I should imagine. Millions will have gained the habit for the first time to add to the zillions of established players. So it makes sense to research a few companies which produce and flog video games. You might want to look at TinyBuild (TBLD), for example.

St James House AGM Statement as the Parallel Universe of AIM laps it up

AIM-listed St James House has updated on trading in its AGM statement issued today. Except it doesn’t! And how are the financials looking? Er…. And if that is not enough to make shareholders run for the hills, there is the small matter of a boat-load of equity at just 10p waiting in the wings, with the shares currently at an amazing 55p!
