A twitter gem - Polixenes13 on the Tesla car crash waiting to happen
Most material on twitter is unadulterated junk. But there is the odd gem. In the case of Tesla (TSLA) where the sell side analysts are all paid bulls, some of the best insight is on twitter. Like Lucian Miers, I regard this company as an accident, no an outright car crash, just waiting to happen. In that vein I bring you a most instructive series of tweets yesterday from @Polixines13 who knows his or her onions.

Find Findel as it Features a Feel for a Feisty Future
Hello Share Chasers. Findel (FDL) is an unusual sort of company, combining two very different areas of business activity. It sold a lot of Christmas bits and pieces in the Yule countdown. Its less seasonal products include clothes, toys, furniture and kitchen stuff. The other arm is the Findel Education department. This supplies things to schools. The only common denominator which comes quickly to mind is that children’s needs are a large part of its custom.

Podcast: Gold to roof it, Deutsche Bank to fail, it's back to 2008 says Jaime Carrasco
Fund manager Jaime Carrasco is a bundle of New Year cheer. Not! He assumes that markets are manipulated through excess money printing and suppression of some like gold and silver. Investors would likely be less interested in markets if the price of gold were much higher. Precious metals reveal the underlying market risks and the year ahead will probably bring additional risks but also opportunities.

Reader Post of the Year ( 2019) – another warning about Pacific Tycoon/Davenport Laroche
I have had my threats for exposing the fraud that is Pacific Tycoon, a fraud that companies such as ADVFN (AFN) and others in UK financial services have been prepared to promote despite my exposes. It seems that Pacific now operates under two names, a reader (Daryl) has the whole scam banged to rights and relayed his experience on our comments section. This post merits a wider audience. Over to Daryl…

Shareholder democracy AIM Casino Style – CSF gets the boot: £3.6 million for City Boy coke & hookers
This is a typical AIM Cesspit tale of woe and greed. CSF Group (CSF) listed on the AIM casino in 2010, a smallish Malaysian company of no interest to anyone. But the advisers raked it in with fat fees and fat promises to the board and shareholders. Coke and hookers all round in the Square Mile. Wind forward to August 28 last year.

Team17 Makes Games Which Might Put You on Shareland's Winning Team in 2019
Hello, Share Party People. My main New Year resolution is to have more fun. I’m too old to be working as a drone bee all the time and boosting my leisure time is now a priority. One way of pleasurably filling time - though not for this ancient punter - is to play electronic games on PlayStations and the like.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - my hottest tip yet
I start with this tip which really is hot. Then I look at the FTSE 100 and why targets for year end 2019 really are meaningless. I then give a target but you may well think that it understates my true level of bearishness. You would be right and I explain why.

What is Neil Woodford so keen to hide from you all This New Year's day?
In 2017 Neil Woodford filed accounts for Woodford Investment Management, due by December 31, on December 20th. It was thus at a time when no-one was reading the financial press that it emerged that despite a shite year for his investors, for to the 12 months to March 31 2017, Neil himself had trousered £7 million in dividends as a reward for being so useless.
