Crestchic – a business trading momentum Buy?...

Having recently reached above 200p, shares in Northbridge Industrial Services, now Crestchic plc (LOAD), have fallen back to a current 200p offer price, £56.5 million market cap. However, recent corporate activity and trading mean we target a more than 250p share price within three months and here’s why.

Blue Star Capital interims – it doesn't make sense

Previously, I identified this minnow as a dog drowning in red flags. Today, Blue Star Capital (BLU) has served up its interims which, as reader A kindly explains, make no sense at all.

IMMO

Immotion – AGM update, just how “strong” is the trading?...

Previously writing on ‘immersive entertainment’ group Immotion (IMMO), with the shares rising above 6p in August last year I concluded that financial factors had seen me remain cautious and that with the market cap above £25 million I continued to avoid. So what of today a “pleased to provide” AGM trading update... and the shares at 3.7p?...

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: V is for Vindication (Kefi, Verditek, Shield and the list goes on)

In today's podcast, I look at Optibiotix (OPTI) - where I bought more shares; Kefi Gold & Copper (Kefi); Guild ESports (GILD) - is it breaking up with David Beckham?; Nanosynth (NNN); the shysters at Verditek (VDTK)l and Shield Therapeutics (STX). It is definitely ouzo, or rather an elderflower champagne, for supper tonight.

MSYS

Microsaic Systems – “pleased to announce” trading update. Er, what about ‘profit’ & cash?

Microsaic Systems (MSYS) has issued a “pleased to announce” trading update, emphasising that “the launch of the Microsaic Services Division, earlier this year, has resulted in an uplift of 40% in revenues” and “a healthy order book for H2 2022 which is the strongest ever going in to the second half”. So what of a current little changed 0.08p share price, circa £5 million market capitalisation?...

Verditek – that ol’ "contract win" spoof works again – bailout placing achieved

How many times will mug punters fall for this?  Last Thursday, Verditek (VDTK) shares traded at 1.3p, before soaring to 1.6p the following day. On Monday, there was a contract announced, and they roofed it to 2.5p. Today…

Last day of June! What are house prices, Ocado and Moonpig up to?

It is the last day of June, the last day of the quarter and the last day of the first half of the year. How exciting! There is so much more to come for all active investors. As for the ‘buy a bit of everything / anything’ passive investor types…good luck, unless you really want to ignore the world of investments for a decade or two. And so much to think about, as always on a Thursday. First, I was amused to see that the latest Nationwide House Price Index for June pleased many people by still showing a year-on-year increase of 10.7% (only just below the 10.8% anticipated number).

EXPOSE: Supply@Me Capital - the state of its cash crisis

Today, Supply@ME Capital (SYME) will hold its Annual General Meeting, which, amongst other things, will authorise an increase in its share capital. Thus, it can issue additional shares to Venus Capital under the death spiral, and to Tradeflow Capital vendors for the deferred consideration.

100% Vindication for @TomWinnifrith: Shield Therapeutics admits to failed $30m placing, gets bailout loan but will still be bust by Christmas

Oh dear, oh dear. This is truly awful, and explains why results normally released in late April, came out today - deadline day. Shield Therapeutics (STX) is in a mess, as I warned so often. Ouzo for me. Cabbage water for those who ignored my explicit warnings and instead, hurled abuse at me.

CWR

Ceres Part 2: The Case Strengthens as the Share Price (Unfairly) Backs Off

Hello Share Squashers. It’s not often I suggest you look at the same share in the same week. But there’s enough data to add to my earlier posting on Ceres Power (CWR). Especially as the good news I imparted on a partnership with Shell (SHEL) has made no difference to the share price. It seems the City has yet to wake up to the potential here.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: More Marginitis for proven liar, John Story? Is he up the Ben's Creek without a paddle?

In today's podcast, I look at Eurasia Mining (EUA); Powerhouse Energy (PHE); Shield Therapeutics (STX); Simec Atlantic (SAE); Ben's Creek (BEN) and John Story of Chill Brands (CHLL); and Cellular Goods (CBX) infamy.

XPF

XP Factory – “AGM Statement”, how’s the bottom-line result and balance sheet now?...

Previously writing on a “trading update” from XP Factory (XPF), in January with the shares at 30.5p I questioned what about the bottom-line result and balance sheet? Today an AGM Statement from the company – and the shares currently further down to below 18p. So what’s the situation now?...

Eurasia Mining FY Results, ACF Research and rank dishonesty

I shall serve up a more detailed comment on the piss poor full year numbers from Eurasia Mining (EUA) later but it is worth flagging up for Cliff Weight, the laudable ShareSoc supremo, and others the matter of the paid for research published on Eurasia by ACF Research in February 2020.

Feck you, Lloyds: you don't want customers like me - and 90% of the population

The tweet below is from Halifax, part of the Lloyds (LLOY) banking group. Those who spoke out were told to take their business elsewhere. And they will. "Go woke, go broke."

Mode sneaks through its latest fundraise within the notes to accounts and continues to burn through cash - a bargepole SELL

As many of you reading this will know, I’m not exactly a fan of Mode Global Holdings (MODE) and even less so after its latest antics where it hasn’t exactly gone out of its way to inform investors about its latest fundraise!

Ariana – 2021 Full Year Results

AIM-listed Ariana Resources (AAU) has released its FY21 numbers this morning – and not a day too late! The highlight for me is the cashpile of £16.4 million at year-end: no funding worries here, then, and the final tranche of the special dividend arising from the part sale of Ariana’s Turkish assets is due on 3 October. But there is much more than that!

Windar Photonics – trading warning including on 2021 results. Er, but it’s nearly the end of June 2022!

Previously writing on LiDAR wind sensor technology company Windar Photonics (WPHO), towards the end of last year with the shares up to 18p I noted a second order doesn’t validate the system and that a substantial market to target is very different to substantial cash-generative orders and to continue to avoid. Now an update from the company... and the shares currently slumping to 6p, so what’s going on?...

Kefi Gold & Copper – inaccurate Tulu Kapi licence press reports, risk/reward Buy

Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) has issued an announcement stating that it notes recent local press reports inaccurately referring to a loss of the company's Tulu Kapi licence in Ethiopia and that it is instead confident of the signing of an umbrella funding agreement by the end of this month.

Video: UK Oil & Gas AGM disrupted by fit, if utterly deluded, birds & other eco loons

The Eco loons vs Lyin' Steve Sanderson and Uk Oil & Gas (UKOG), it is hard to know which team to cheer for. You kind of want both to lose. The protestors at yesterday's AGM seem to think banners are more efffective if upside down. As the burly UK staffer tries to remove a prostesting bird he is desparate not to use his hands less she screams #MeToo.  How entertaining.

Ceres, the God of Agriculture and a Green Pioneer, Looks to Future Profits in a Deal with a Giant

Ceres Power Holdings (CWR) does green stuff with fuel cells and electro-chemical technology. The share price has fallen lately, as encouraging news announcements have been in short supply. But the fact remains that we live in a world where governments have pledged war on fossil fuels and Ceres looks to have some of the answers. And now it seems the mighty Shell (SHEL) has come on board.
