Legendary bear raider Evil Knievil reckons that for an outlay (or has he describes it "an investment") of £15,000 he is set to trouser a £200,000 on the Epsom Derby at 4PM on June 7^th.

Veteran resource entrepreneur Algy Cluff is back again with a new vehicle, Cluff Natural Resources (CLNR). Panmure Gordon analyst Jack Allardyce reckons that the shares, now 3.625p, are worth 13p a pop and explains why in a broker research note out today.

Is the Berkelely Minerals (BMR) train about to finally pick up some steam? Shareholders are used to missed deadlines, last week was no different. Having been told that the Zambian Environmental Management Agency (ZEMA) would give its decision regarding the commencement of production at the Kabwe tailings operation by the end of the month, Friday came and went and no decision was forthcoming. 

Which two recent managerial appointments for companies in or close to the FTSE-100 have the scope to really surprise? Serco (SRP) and RSA Insurance Group (RSA) look like the most likely candidates to me, as I explain below.

Early last month, I pointed out that Rentokil Initial (RTO), the £2 billion plus market cap services support company, was not far from what looked like a potential one year trend support line. At 118p, according to my inspection of the share price chart, the share seems to have reached that support level. So will it bounce off it?

Northcote Energy (NCT) looks undervalued when compared to its peers with similar operations in the US. It has been rapidly expanding its onshore oil and gas operations, announcing further acquisitions even since the last set of interims up to June 2013 showed a 500% increase in its acreage.

Hello Share Jivers: I last saw Doc Holiday when, near midnight, he picked me up from the pavement near Euston Station. This was not due to drink or infirmity. I'm just clumsy.

A director tipping out 400,000 shares rarely does anything good for the share price. The chap may not be central to the operation, he may retain the vast majority of his holding but investors rarely read it well. That happened last week at Mirada (MIRA), the shares have slipped back to 15.25p and it is a chance for you to buy.

Independent Resources (IRG) won last week’s AIM Cesspit pump and dump (on mug punters) prize as it got its rescue £2.76 million placing away at 3p (the shares being 6.5p) after the pump but before the dump. But a City source makes it clear that the operation is not over yet.

I outlined on Friday why Tern PLC (TERN) must fire its chairman Angus Forrest and his gopher sidekick Bruce Leith NOW. Quite simply they have been shown to have committed corporate malfeasance and to have lied to investors at the last POS company they were in charge of – what was then Digital Learning Marketplace (DLM) and is now Alpha Returns (ARGP).  I have written – as you can see HERE - to the Nomad (John Wakefield at WH Ireland) and Non Exec, Laurence Read ( a totally honourable man) demanding that they fire the two crony capitalists at once. But it gets worse.

Despite facing certain IT issues this weekend Tom Winnifrith has recorded another video postcard which starts with plans by Vatukoula (VGM) to de-list. Who has gained from this company’s market existence and who loses now?

Manoli Yannaghas, onetime debt recovery expert and former operations chief at the now-unloved Red Rock Resources (RRR), is celebrating his first year as managing director of graphite play Stratmin Global Resources (STGR). The company is on the cusp of the long-awaited move to commercial production in the south-east African island state of Madagascar. This could prove the catalyst for a positive move higher from this beleaguered stock.

It is not just on the Bulletin Boards that financial morons lurk, twitter abounds with them. As such my Moron of the week comes from the twittosphere and is, needless to say, a shareholder in Quindell (QPP).

Commissioned researcher Edison reckons that the recent deal with Alkane is cracking news for Egdon Resources (EDR) and that at a 27.3p share price this is a bargain. It reckons fair value is 67p – house broker VSA reckons 60p as you can see HERE.

Doc Holiday is a friend of mine but we do not pay him to write anything on this website, he occasionally chips in. He is an honest writer and if he thinks that a share sucks he says so which is one reason that I respect him. I have written about the death threats, stalking and harassment I have received for making such calls. It appears that the poison is spreading.

TW writes: This five part series of how private investors were lied to and ripped off on the AIM Cesspit is already making waves. Make no mistake heads will be rolling, folks will be getting fired and the regulators will be acting as a result of the dynamite revelations of Nigel Somerville. The story continues in part 3…

Now is your chance to heap opprobrium of those AIM CEOs and Companies that have made your poorer over the past year. On Monday 30 June we will be handing out nine trophies in the 2014 AIM Cesspit awards. All those who have made the Aim Casino the crony capitalist den of iniquity that it is will be honoured. 

We are less than two weeks away from the start of the World Cup in Brazil. After the last incredibly dull tournament in South Africa, I hope this year’s competition will be a cracker. There is so much negativity surrounding the event with nationwide protests, incompetent organisation and much public criticism that expectations are so low it will be hard to confound them. Contrast this to the pre-tournament optimism last time, towards Africa’s first time to host football’s elite, and I think you get my point.

Hello Share Fans: How many different companies do have in your share bag? Have you nabbed so many that your chances of really striking it big are diluted?
