Sunday is a good time to sit back, read, and forget about shares. Put the kettle on, find a comfy chair. You have the time, don't you?

It's time for the ShareProphets Sunday Pub Quiz.. There are no prizes! And remember, no Googling!

Hello Share Wallowers. Another development  enhances my list of reasons why the Footsie may soar between now and Yuletide. The oil price is rising again. That will, of course, boost shares like BP (BP.) and Shell (SHEL) as well as some of the minor producers. As the former giants are big components of the big share index we can expect an expanding oil price to whack up most share in the big companies, as a healthier Footsie usually puts general sentiment on an optimistic footing.

Previously writing on company which describes itself as “a leading developer and manufacturer of lithium-ion and sodium-ion battery cells for specialist markets”, in July with the shares down to 4.25p I noted it’s good luck with a sustainable financial solution within the next few business days and it remains that hopefully our prior warnings were heeded, bargepole/sell. The shares had since risen to above 9p as financial hopes were raised and now the company “is pleased to announce” that it has conditionally placed new shares to raise approximately £2.1 million and is proposing to raise up to a further £0.25 million in a “retail offer” via the Bookbuild platform. So what of a share price currently down to 2.15p?!
