How the Health and Safety Boom is a Godsend to this Big British Tester

Hello, Share Chumeroonis. Intertek (ITRK) is in a niche sector I’ve not looked at before. But I should have done because it is in a world of growing demand. The company is one of the few businesses that is probably indebted to the health and safety area. It tests products for other firms...

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Oi Telit, Accesso & Westminster, BMD thinks I'm trying to sell you a stand at UK Investor

Dan Levi reckons that I was being beastly about Dev Clever PLC to sell it a stand at the UK Investor show. He says so without listening to what I actually said. Maybe I am also trying to flog stands to Telit, Accesso and Westminster Group? Oi fatso Baldry if I mention the 3DM fraud again will you take a stand at a show I don't actually own. Whatever... In this podcast I also cover Telit (TCM), Blue Rock Diamonds (BRD), Jim Mellon's SalvaRX (SALV), Accesso (ACSO) and Windar Photonics (WPHO). It is silliness like this that make me want to call it a day sooner rather than later.

Is the Petrofac share price collapse a good buying/trading opportunity

Sudden large drops in share price on larger companies tend to spook investors, but they can also offer great opportunities, either to invest at a cheap price or even just to trade any bounce back towards previous levels.

We are getting ready to enter an era unlike anything in our own experience

For some time now I have been talking about what I think may unfold over the next decade. The term I often use is The Great Reset, but in my mind it’s more than just resetting global debt

Blue Rock Diamonds – a month of pump and now the dump- a case study in how the AIM casino operates

Over the past month the share price of AIM casino listed Blue Rock Diamonds (BRD) has soared from 0.29p to 0.38p. Some lucky souls paid up to 0.4p on Friday. Let’s review the timeline:

Podcast: Uranium Made Investors Crazy Money Last Time

Philip O'Neill started his career in the junior mining space in the early 2000s by investing in uranium. He discusses the last bull market and how it did exceedingly well and how the market can surprise you. Today there is much more experience in the uranium markets so the coming bull market should be more mature.

IMB

Imperial Brands: dumping the chair is about the share price and Old Father Time not "overboarding"

I see there are various reports circulating that Mark Williamson - the chairman of Imperial Brands (IMB) - is set to fall on his sword soon, having been hassled by institutional investors over perceived "overboarding", given he is also the chair of Spectris (SXS) and on the board of National Grid (NG/).

Pathfinder Minerals – Countdown to license restoration begins in earnest, I'm confused, Richard Jennings is not

I am a bit confused. As I understood it the new management team at Pathfinder Minerals (PFP) had great contacts out in Bongo Bongo land and were going to sort out the mess whereby the company's main asset had gone AWOL in Mozambique with locals claiming ownership. Today we are told that Pathfinder will pay some johnnies in South Africa £1 million (which it does not have) to sort this out. So what is the board doing for its money? Whatever... I am confused. Richard Jennings of Align says he is not and that the shares - which Align owns - are cheap. Here is his reasoning...

BP

I've Explained Why Big Oilers are a Sensible Punt, but which Company Seems Best to Me?

Hello Share Scratchers. On the heels of my last piece, in which I commended the fortunes of giant oilers, a few readers have asked me which jumbo firm do I prefer. I suppose the choice for British investors is between Shell (RDSA) and BP (BP.) I have big holdings in both outfits, but I lean towards one of them.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: A lesson in red flag spotting at Atlantic Carbon - the stench of Daniel Stewart, Adam Wilson and Peter Shea

I follow up on today's shocking revelations about the stockmarket comeback planned by disgraced Peter Shea and Daniel Stewart Securities with a detailed look at Adam Wilson's Atlantic Carbon, formerly Atlantic Coal, its shocking historic accounts, why they should ensure alarm bells ring and why this whole deal and its proposed Standard Listing stink to high heaven

BMV

Bluebird Merchant Ventures – potential government drilling grant and more: BUY

Bluebird Merchant Ventures (BMV) “is pleased to announce the application for a grant for an assisted drilling programme at Kochang from KORES, the submission of the report on the feasibility of re-opening the mine to Southern Gold and the application for the permit to develop Gubong from the South Korean Government”

Interserve – still an outright sell: consider the creditors!

We still await full details of the debt-for-equity swap at fully listed Interserve (IRV). But on what the company has told us so far, it is clear that the shares, at about 11.6p, are a stonking sell. Here is why.

But something bigger happened on Thursday. Daniel Stewart, c/o former boss Adam Wilson is coming back to the market via a standard listing. Let me explain with the documents below..

Redrow boss plays a blinder in the still horribly distorted housing market

There is an article of note in one of today's Sunday newspapers profiling Steve Morgan - the founder of the housebuilder Redrow (RDW) - who is on the cusp of retiring from the business for a second time.  You have got to applaud such entrepreneurial fervour and capability to have turned a £5,000 loan from his Father into a company today that is worth a cool £2.1 billion - and I hope he enjoys his upcoming retirement.  However the article was noteworthy for a couple of other reasons, one of which was mentioned...and one of which was not even hinted at.
