Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - 29th May

In today's bearcast I can't help but look back as the Evil Empire's 2014 accounts come to light. Then I move on to a few other favourites Quindell ( vindicated), Coms (vindicated) and Sefton (vindicated). A hat-trick of wins on a day when I deposited cash in a Greek Bank. More on that later.

    Brokerman Dan wasn’t particularly complimentary about Mr Ellerton either !

  2. Quiet day on the markets. Just enjoying watching the AIM loon, @SvelteJD implode on Twiiter

    He’s taking a break from trolling today and spamming anybody to try and take the NEW story on. Considering he is stuck in WRN as well, suspension is his new thing. Shouldn’t laugh, but the abuse he dishes out on Twitter to investors and writers is a disgrace. Serious loono

    @BBCBreaking Why don’t you ask the FCA and AIM what they are doing about Cornhill Capital ILLEGALLY forward selling shares? New World O&G

    @sajidjavid Just spoke Westminster office and your dept. Have tried FCA. No one seems bothered to stop #new ILLEGALLY forward selling shares

    @BBCBusiness @itvnews @Channel4News Shareholders in NewWorldOil & Gas subjected to ILLEGAL forward selling of shares. @TheFCA done nothing

    @sajidjavid @BBCBusiness Ppl are being screwed over by New World Oil & Gas and Cornhill Capital. Illegal forward selling of shares. Well?

    @TheFCA Can you tell me why New World Oil & Gas is still suspended. I didn’t ask them to illegally forward sell shares. #scrutiny #new

    @TheFCA Your job to protect PIs/consumers. #new currently suspended giving illegal forward sellers an out. How is this allowed?

  3. Sub Edit!1?

    Fuck me.. once you have sorted out Zaks Grammar and introduced your, ouzo imposed, spelling mistakes the document involved will be well worth purchasing as arse wipe material assuming arse wipe material is not cheaper elsewhere when not supplied with pre-printed shit.

    Oh, silly me. Presumably it will be an ‘e-book’.
