The rise and rise of developed market regulation continues as "the CMA will scrutinise 'green' claims made by Unilever". How exciting (not)!
I have not been a fan of Unilever (ULVR) historically. Don't get me wrong, I have certainly happily eaten a Magnum ice cream or two over the last few years, but generally I have found other global fast-moving consumer goods corporate names more of interest. And, whilst the company seems to be getting a bit smarter in terms of its business focus under its newish CEO, I had to smile this morning when I read that "Unilever's 'green' claims come under CMA microscope"…- By Chris Bailey |

Lyin’ Steve Sanderson at UKOG must think his shareholders are really dumb. You know what: he’s right!
Last week Lyin’ Steve was arguing that Horse Hill Developments, the operator of the Gatwick Gusher was so profitable and pregnant with cash that it was able to repay a stack of borrowings to UK Oil & Gas (UKOG). This week we see just what a joke that all is. Today we have news on the deal with Pennpetro (PPP) run by Dave Lenigas the founder of UK Oil & Gas.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

A mid-December big week...
Are you looking forward to Christmas? There will be no turkey at our household, but the premium salmon offering coming from our local supermarket looks rather attractive (online). As for the world of investments, there is really only one week of note left in the year. I know you will be able to continue to buy or sell shares at various parts of the last couple of weeks of the year (especially if you are trading in various developing economies), but the only outstanding matters to focus on are either macro or predictive centred in the larger cap world (ex a dodgy pre-Christmas profit warning). What is happening during the mid-December big week for the global investment markets? There are two matters of particular note in my opinion.- By Chris Bailey |

Some Good Days May Now Happen at BlackRock
Hello Share Servers. You know what they say about being too big to fail. Well, the BlackRock set-up is probably the biggest financial investor in the world. And it runs an outfit called BlackRock Greater Europe Investment Trust (BRGE), which I’m rather fond of. I’ve invested in it for decades and my money has increased about ten times. As well as it paying a dividend, of course.- By Malcolm Stacey |

The View From The Montana Log-Cabin As Gold Retests
After a bit of a barnstorming week last week, Gold closed this week at $2005, retesting the $2,000 mark from the other side. It kicked off with an almighty surge above $2,100 but the rest of the week was a ski-slope. What happens in the immediate future is anybody’s guess but a move back higher seems to me an inevitability.- By Nigel Somerville |

Could Victoria go to zero? Yes it could!
We have long been bearish about carpets and floorings roll up (geddit?) Victoria (VCP). But it has not always been an easy short. 8 investors have held 80% of the stock and there have been painful bear squeezes. But after recent interims the shares are at near multi year lows at 255p, a market cap of £300 million. And one can now track a descent to zero.- By Tom Winnifrith |
