Bearcast

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast 15 December - Fitbug tits up poll & is it Jabba or Chris Oil for the Christmas Carol?

The Mrs listened to me recording Bearcast today and said that I seemed very happy. Maybe it is the thought of the next Afriag (AFRI) article I am working on or perhaps it was the second painkiller of the day kicking in? Or maybe a truly moronic Bulletin Board Moron posting? In this upbeat mood I discuss who should feature in this year's three part Christmas Carol? Fat Aussie share ramper David Lenigas or market abuser Chris Oil? Or should I run two series? Then a discussion on when Fitbug (FITB) goes bust. After that - in a bad language section - I discuss Arian Silver (AQG) and its fucktard PR man Dominic Baretto. I move onto Plethora (PLE), Aveva (AVV), Concha (CHA), 88 Energy (88E) and Caza Oil & Gas (CAZ) before rattling off the names of a few other small oilers that really are zeros.

Comments

  1. Tom,
    I know you’re not a fan of PLE, but i actually added more this morning at 4.4s an hour or so before the RNS – still hold them plus the original ones i had when i wrote the piece on this company.
    The ideal play would have been if it was possible to short RP, but it appears that Hong Kong don’t allow that unfortunately!
    I still decent risk reward from around the 5p level (equates to around HK0.035 i think) – I know Evil was buying in the high 6s initially as well, so it isn’t just me who is mad!
    I just feel that the two combined will be stronger than the individual parts. Also not that hard to get an account that allows you to trade/hold HK shares as TDW offer it in their standard account with low dealing costs.

  2. Fucking love it!

  3. A few ideas from me.

    After recent revelations you could do a spoof of Lenigas singing Africa by ToTo.

    Or perhaps a spoof of the “Subterreanean homesick blues” video by Bob Dylan, detailing significant findings to date.

    Chrisoil meanwhile is just a tragic Walter Mitty character of the highest order.

    One final thought on a slightly different theme, surprised that nobody has thought of it yet:
    What about a “My 0.02 cents worth” article to be updated regularly going through all the shares Lenigas and associates own which they granted themselves at 0.01p, their disposal profits, and their current net worth.

    Note: Approx 2.1 Aus dollars = £1 so the exchange rate is nearly correct.
