Much ramped DeepVerge (DVRG) has very kindly put the presentation it gave on December 1 to lucky clients of its corporate broker, the esteemed house of Turner Pope, on its website. Have you read it? I have rarely seen a more compelling sell case in my life. No wonder the shares are tanking. Off another 10% today to 23.5p; I am slashing my target price from 10p to 5p.

Early this year we showed the Shorted AIM shares at the start of 2020. How’s the performance as at the end of November? (those in bold remain from 2019)…

Three announcements came this morning from Westminster Group (WSG), the cash-guzzling AIM promote run by sleazy ex Tory MP Tony Baldry of 3DM infamy. All add to Tom Winnifrith’s 5^th rule of investing: If the porcine piece of slime Tony Baldry is involved, sell.

Fully listed Egyptian gold-miner Centamin (CEY) has released the promised life of asset review this morning. In the wake of ground movement troubles, this an important step in regaining investor trust. The good news is that the shares did not fall precipitously…..

Hello, Share Fans. Intertek (ITRK) is one of those companies which sounds impressive, but not everyone knows anything about. It’s actually in the rather boring, but very useful, game of testing products and giving them quality and safety certificates. It does this for all kinds of products all over the world. Now as the global economy is being suffocated by the virus, you might expect Intertek’s revenue to have fallen away. And indeed it has, but this is one of those companies that has taken evasive action and hasn’t suffered as much as you might expect…

Shares in Flowtech Fluidpower (FLO) have been somewhat left behind in the recent markets rise but the company looks set to strongly benefit with the anticipated economic recovery the recent markets rise is based on, already having been expecting an improvement in performance in the second half of this year and into 2021…

Having asked for readers tips for 2020 for the prize of 1/2 litre of Tom Winnifrith’s Greek Hovel olive oil (2020 harvest) HERE, the following is an update on performance at the end of November (to be eligible needed to have selected, on a per username basis, a buy & sell pick from the LSE or AIM casino and the stocks not to have been suspended at the commencement of 2020). How are the standings with just one month to go?…

In today’s bearcast I look at Concepta (CPT), Novacyt (NCYT), DeepVerge (DVRG) – target 10p – , Supply@ME Capital (SYME) – target 0p – and Powerhouse Energy (PHE)

Round at Supply@ME Capital (SYME) HQ it really is starting to look like the May Day parade in Moscow. So here is another matter for promoters such as the Sith Lord Zak Mir and the dwindling band of bulletin board fanatics to consider.

On November 12 AIM promote Powerhouse Energy (PHE) announced Heads of Terms with Hydrogen Utopia International Limited to license its IP in Poland. This seemed like a validation of its technology but it was not. This is a deception as I established HERE I have today asked Powerhouse two further questions about HUI and this deal. It has declined to answer by the very generous deadline served.

An “on target for 2020 & positioned for growth in 2021” update from telecommunications networks technology company Ethernity Networks (ENET) – and the shares currently more than 20% higher in response, at 26p. But what is the “target” and what is the “growth” it reckons it is positioned for?…

On its website Supply@ME Capital (SYME) makes a lot of bold claims concerning its business proposition for its potential corporate customers such as:

Hello, Share Shakers. After a shaky start, one of my more successful suggestions continues to pile on share value. But I think there’s more upward action to come. The biggest driver seems to be the virus, so I can’t take much credit. But let’s look at the story from here…

I start with Joshua’s Advent calendar and ask you to guess a question about the Bible knowledge of the under 30s.  Then it is on to Vodafone (VOD), DeepVerge (DVRG), Sosandar (SOS) and Caspian Sunrise (CASP).

The last time I looked at online ladies wear purveyor, AIM-listed Sosandar (SOS), my conclusion remained wake me up after the next placing. Will it be any different this time?

Self-styled “a leading provider of technology and services for the global offshore energy markets”, Tekmar Group (TGP) has updated including October-appointed CEO Alasdair MacDonald emphasising “the fundamentals of this business are strong and I have no doubt that we can capitalise on the structural growth forecast in our core market and deliver sustainable returns for our shareholders” – and the shares have currently responded towards 80p, more than 15% higher…

This is so rotten and corrupt at every level that the FCA should be crawling all over sub Standard listed Dev Clever (DEV) and Mark Horrocks driven sub standard listed Asimilar (ASLR). It seems that FCA staff are too busy shitting under their desks to do anything about it.
