COMPETITION TIME: Ho Ho Ho, It’s The 2023 ShareProphets Christmas Red Flags At Night Sweepstakes. Place Your Bets….
Bah Humbug! It is once again the time of year for the dregs of the market to attempt to slip out bad news on the last trading day before Christmas when nobody is watching as they are getting ready for Christmas. Profit warnings, director share sales, resignations, awful results, suspensions and so on will be all the rage, perhaps even beating last year's record number of 31 such dastardly missives.- By Ebenezer Scrooge |

LifeSafe Holdings – “successfully completed and closed the placing and share subscription”. How ‘successful’ is it?…
Previously writing on company describing itself as “a fire safety technology business with innovative fire extinguishing fluids and fire safety products” LifeSafe Holdings (LIFS), last month it was with it arguing its sales growth “extraordinary”, but I arguing it not so extraordinary. What then of the company now announcing “it has successfully completed and closed the placing and share subscription to raise gross proceeds of £400,000”?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: I blame John Teeling for the way I feel today
I explain why my old friend is to blame for the state I am in. I then move on to Helium One (HE1) and why its advisers and CEO should be strung up with piano wire, Chill Brands (CHLL) and why it should do the placing it so clearly needs before March, Alien Metals (UFO) and then more on Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), surely a cracking idea for a tip of the year?- By Tom Winnifrith |

Chill Brands is still not telling us what matters as it wins a supermarket deal
I have never disputed the ability of Chill Brands (CHLL) to get its nicotine free vapes into stores. My pal Ray Ingelby is a magician in that regard. The issue, as ever, is reorder levels and while Chill says it has had some it continues to dissemble on how many. It is also strangely silent on how little cash it has left.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Alien Metals shares just 0.21p and falling: when’s the next bailout placing?
As a long term bear of Alien Metals (UFO) I have flagged up numerous undeclared related party and other sordid deals. This company has always been drowning in red flags and is the sort of shite AIM could do without. Now for some maths.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Helium One Placing Disaster and Disgrace – Lorna Blaisse wins the AIM Sports personality of the year!
Okay, Lorna did not win anything this year and in fact lost investors stacks of money. While Stuart Broad had a year of glory that will go down in history that is not the point and so following in the footsteps of that bird from Milestone who lied about a fund raise, this year’s AIM Personality of the year is ….Lorna Blaisse of Helium One (HE1). Cripes how Lorna has fucked things up but we are told that these days we should ignore that and celebrate more boardroom diversity.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

Atalaya Mining – Main Market Debut Delayed But Worth Hanging On For More From This Winning Tip
I suggested that AIM-listed Atalaya Mining (ATYM) was worth a short-term flutter on Sunday 3rd December. The market capitalisation was then £457 million, since when it has moved on to £523 million (last seen) – a gain of around 14%. My thinking was that its proposed move to the main market alongside being re-registered in order to qualify for inclusion in FTSE indexes would see a re-rating. Well, so far, so good. But this morning there came a fly in the ointment.- By Nigel Somerville |

Bulletin Board Moron of the Week can you beat this musicMagpie owning poltroon by Christmas?
Can you find a dafter post than the one below - and you might hunt happily on Canadian Overseas and Versarien boards today - from the LSE Asylum musicMagpie (MMAG) thread. For the avoidance of doubt, as explained HERE, I expect magpie to go bust in 2024 and shareholders to lose everything. But some folks are still fighting.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

Mission Group – trading expected to be in line with “revised outlook”. Er, what was that outlook again?…
Digital marketing and communications agencies business Mission Group (TMG) commences a “trading statement” announcement with “trading for FY2023 is currently expected to be in line with the board's revised outlook, as outlined in the Update… on 23 October 2023”. Hmmm – that’s only just over eight weeks ago, so not a great achievement anyway, but what was that “revised outlook”?- By Steve Moore |

BlueJay Mining: you couldn’t make it up, its ‘avin’ a giraffe, disgraced McIllree is back!
Seriously this is worthy of April Fool’s Day. Rod McIlree was the promoter who pumped BlueJay Mining (JAY) shares hard on the back of the Dundas project in Greenland. Subsequent to his departure a new team admitted that all the money had gone and that the Dundas numbers pushed by Rod were all wrong and it was worthless. And so with the company running on vapours….- By Tom Winnifrith |

Another ouzo for the Sheriff, vindicated again: Canadian Overseas: The fat lady warms up as it defaults on debt
And to think that Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) founder Arthur Millholland said that I was a “snake oil salesman” and did not understand accounts. As the Fat Lady now books a ticket to gig with Arthur in the socialist hell hole of Canada, the shares have collapsed again, to just 0.4p. They were 25p when I first started exposing this crock 20 months ago prompting that misleading RNS response from Art. The shares should be suspended now as Canadian is now totally screwed. It is a zero.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Petrofac: Big contract wins but no update on how it will solve its balance sheet problems, I'm shorting more and here is why
I promised that I would report this morning on Petrofac’s (PFC) trading statement. At pixel the shares are 31.6p, up 41% from yesterday’s close. At the peak this morning they touched 37.2p, scoring a massive 67% win for the bulls, all of whom seem to be in my timeline this morning, less than politely telling me what a fool I am.- By Evil Banksta |
