Hello Share Trippers. House prices in my neck of the woods have doubled in the last year. I do live in an odd location, though. It’s a seaside town and apparently loads of top earners are selling their gaffs in the Smoke having discovered that they can work from anywhere. What does this mean for house prices generally and share prices which are linked to them?

Last week I wrote on TT Electronics (TTG) “Ground-breaking COVID-19 screening device launched” announcement, more Corona madness? as the shares soared above 260p. Now the company announces that “it has agreed to acquire Torotel… is expected to be part-funded by a separately announced equity placing”…

Well actually I start with the curtain twitchers on the facebook page of the small village where I live in Wales. Boy have they excelled themselves today. What a crazy world we live in. Then it is on to Iconic (ICON) where today’s news should see the board in jail. Then Supply@ME Capital (SYME), a good section on Verditek (VDTK), and finally a detailed appraisal of Caspian Sunrise (CASP) after its interims. On reflection, I lied to you. This is not a podcast about three stocks worth zero. It is about four stocks worth zero.

Previously writing on “audio-visual systems integrator” to organisations, MediaZest (MDZ), as the shares rose to 0.07p I again noted the financials and suggested to beware of the recent share price movement. Now results for the 12 months ended 31st March 2020 – and the shares currently down to 0.04p…

Ouch! I do hope that the morons who have piled into worthless, cash-guzzling, POS Iconic (ICON) in recent days had lubed up properly for this morning for they were shafted completely. The shares have slumped by 47% to 0.01325p having also dumped yesterday. Now we know why and it is horrific.

Yesterday I noted how shitty little Aquis Listed Block Commodities had been fined £10,000 for lying to investors. In a way I celebrated as this was down to my work. But in a way not: I was cross.

Jubilee Metals (JLP) “is pleased… the company has received notification from the Minister of Mines and Mineral Development in Zambia of the approval of the company’s application for the renewal of Small Scale Mining Licence 7081-HQ-SML in Kabwe… and… appointment of Nicholas (Nick) Taylor as non-executive director”…

In between snoozes with my feet up on the balcony at the Montana log-cabin, I commented yesterday that things were looking up even though a correction in gold and gold stocks is playing out. The numbers contain some surprises even for me….

Well good luck to Kenton Jarvis who will be joining easyJet (EZJ) at some point in the next few months as its new CFO.  The budget airline may have raised money recently to strengthen their balance sheet, but you do not need to be an investing geek to know life is just a bit uncertain for any operator in this sector.  I talked about this with Tom W yesterday in a video that will go live later today. And certainly my conclusion is that whilst easyJet is a company with a strong offering and a real link with consumer demand/preferences, it can only buck the cycle for so long.  But…

Yesterday another adviser to AIM-listed jam tomorrow investment company Tern (TERN) has departed the building. We have already this year learnt that Tern’s Auditor slipped out of the back door under cover of night, and it is not so long ago that Allenby took on the role of Nomad, leaving one wondering if the former incumbents jumped or were pushed, shortly after Redleaf had vacated the PR role. Now Broker Whitman Howard has jumped ship. Should shareholders be concerned?

Hello Share Peekers. It still pays to search out companies which are likely to do well out of the covid restrictions. When you can’t go out as easily or mix with other people, a solitary pastime you can do from home seems ideal. One such company which fits the bill is Keywords Studios (KWS). This is a company which develops games for X-boxes, Playstations and the like. You’ll have heard the stories that home gaming has, amazingly, taken over as the biggest money spinner over all kinds of entertainment media, including films…

The latest interview with Gold guru Jordan Roy-Byrne of TheDailyGold.com – ShareProphets favourite technical analyst – is out (HERE) and even he is bored. The gold price is range-bound, the silver price is range-bound and his preferred ETFs (from a study perspective) GDX (gold majors) and GDXJ (gold nearly majors) are range-bound. But there might be small signs of stirring at last.

Oh dear, Lyin’ Chris Cleverley, the cousin of Tory party bigwig James, is in a spot of bother having been slammed by the regulators of the junior exchange Aquis for misleading investors in his POS company Block Commodities, formerly African Potash. Better still, Aquis acted on a specific letter from my good self sent on 18 November 2019.

Ten Lifestyle Group (TENG) has updated including that it “expects to report Net Revenue that is slightly ahead of market expectations of £43.3m… Adjusted EBITDA profit is expected to be slightly ahead of market expectations of £4.5m”. However, already down from a start of 2020 134p, the shares are currently slightly further lower at 82p…

In today’s podcast, I consider my dining experience in Chester last night and then look at Carnival (CCL), Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and its jail bait CEO and the one question its diehard supporters cannot answer. Moving on, I consider Xtract Resources (XTR), Tiger Royalties (TIR) and the loathsome spiv Jon Bellis of Novum who has now pushed me over the edge, I look at Novacyt (NCYT) and TrakM8 (TRAK), once the beau of Britain’s thirstiest share blogger.

And now from Wales, by just 30 yards, it is my new, I hope, weekly video show. This costs 99p per episode, and you can either listen to, or watch, some sparky interviews with bear raider Matt Earl on the markets, the real economy and on 2 stocks where he is short (IQE & Boohoo) and one where he might be soon (Future PLC). we focus on Boohoo. There is also a detailed interview with Andrew Bell of Red Rock Resources (RRR). Its shares are 0.82p and what Bell says is ground breaking. I am on record as saying I shall eat my hat on video if the shares are not 1.26p before Christmas. I now reckon 1.65p is achievable and this is explained very clearly. Finally I return to the liars at Verditek (VDTK), why it is drowning in red flags and more. You can access the show HERE

Shares in Safestyle UK (SFE) have recently been rising strongly but, on the back of half-year results, are currently around 20% down today, heading towards 40p…

Technical analyst David Keller says that the number one consideration for an investor should be price followed by regularly watching trends of many asset classes. He says, “Price tells you where capital is moving towards, while breadth shows you what bets are being made, and sentiment reveals what people are saying.” David gives some examples of breadth trends and why they provide a sneak peek into the markets’ operation.

Last night I revealed how, despite being warned that an article with ludicrous price targets for Supply@ME Capital (SYME) shares was fake, the CEO Allessandro Zamboni tweeted it out causing his cretinous followers to pledge to fill their boots today. Last night there was no sign of contrition but, I suspect, my communications with my good friends at the FCA rather focused a few minds.  So this morning we have an RNS admission of fake news from the company. It is not good enough for Zamboni has committed market abuse and should be in jail and it shows his company is a scam.

Yesterday, Petra Diamonds (PDL) issued an RNS which sounded like good news: “Recovery of Five High Quality Blue Diamonds”. Feck FYB thought the morons and the shares jumped by 10%…but this was dissembling. For beneath the bullish headline was not such good news:
