Bearcast

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast 12 April - I view broker Finncap as complete & utter bastards

This concerns Premaitha (NIPT) where I feel misled and explain why I regard brokers Finncap as complete and utter bastards. Premaitha shares are a buy but it should sack Finncap now. I then move onto Gulf Keystone (GKP), Bacanora (BCN), Rare Earth Minerals (REM) and the pig Lenigas, Mariana Resources (MARL), Goldstone Resources (GRL) and Falkland Island Holdings (FKL) a company that has never recovered from being tipped by another complete and utter bastard, the uber-talentless Richard "Gollum" Gill. I am in a bad mood today and this podcast contains lots of bad langauge.

Comments

  1. Someone made a killing on NIPT then, as the cheapest I could pick a few up was 8.25 p at around 11.15 A.M . Noticed the seller from the off and tried to get a bargain, but that was as good as I could get (L2) before lunch ……… I might have dozed off a few times mind ( dowah )
    I take it the big trade will show as an after hours declared trade .


  2. Daniel Victor

    I’m guessing that the ‘B’ on your keyboard will wear out soon :-]

  3. Thanks for the bear cast today I am a shareholder in Premaitha . I bought some more shares today so I am averaging down .
    I hope thats the end of large shareholders selling Off .
    I thought these guys were tied in to the share for a minimum of 6 months.

  4. Tom, it’s PRE-MAY-THA. I’ve heard Stephen Little say that he regrets choosing this name but that’s no excuse!

  5. gill cant be completely talentless if he won smallcap financial Writer of the Year 2008 as voted by his peers


  6. Simple Moving Avarice

    Wildrides – here they all are around about 12:46

    Don’t think the bid/offer moved for the hoi polloi though.

  7. Here is a statement that will probably be more robust that Finn Cap’s “I don’t think you will be getting a Christmas Party invite from Finn Cap this year!”

    On the subject of predictions and forecasts Paul Gascoigne once allegedly said “I don’t make predictions and I never will”

  8. Can’t believe the price at which they went compared to market price before and after. I would be pretty pissed off if it was me. Unless I’m missing something.

    My local tesco is trying to flip excess stock of wired usb keyboards at £1.99 each , you could buy three for what you paid for your aerosol blower then you would have plenty of spare F u c and ks

  11. Stuart Kaplan

    As in “et cetera”, meaning “and other things”.

  12. Venture capital Rupert Lywood, who established the company, claims he had to sell all his shares in NIPT because they are the only liquid asset he has and he needs the money for funding his other companies. However, I wonder if the real reason he sold all his shares is that he has come across key information that shows the company does violate Illuminas patents and he now thinks NIPT will be hammered in the courts.

    TW note if you check companies house filings you will see the stated excuse stacks up. Your speculation is like speculation that elvis lives on the moon, silly and without a shred of evidence
