Advanced Oncotherapy cash negligible, owes £69m, no accounts yet still AIM won’t boot it off

Communications over the past couple of days with the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation, the minions of Marcus Stuttard, have at least forced a statement and adman depressing one from Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO). But the Oxymorons still will not boot it off the sewer as they should have done on December 31. What is the point of rules that are just not enforced?

Letter to AIM Regulation: Nightcap and a breach of AIM Rule 11

This is a slam dunk breach. Sarah Willingham and NightCap (NGHT), assisted by Nomad Allenby have clearly broken AIM Rule 11. I have written to Marcus Stuttard and the team of Oxymorons at AIM Regulation asking if they give a FF about this and will they enforce their own rules.

Another dismal month for AIM in July: no end to the decline of “the world’s most successful growth market”

Letter to Marcus Stuttard at AIM Regulation – the BBC dobs Scotgold in, surely this is criminal?

I have dropped a note to my old pal, the bogus Sheriff of AIM, aka Mr. Marcus Stuttard, head of AIM Regulation, aka the Oxymorons. It seems to me that the BBC has dobbed in Scotgold (SGZ) for serving up a material untruth which saw the shares zooming to 70p to allow a £3 million placing at 40p to proceed. Either the BBC is lying or this is criminal deceit on the part of Scotgold. I have urged the Oxymorons to act…

Verditek breaks AIM Rules yet again but will the bogus Sheriff of AIM, Marcus Stuttard, EVER sanction a company run by a Tory Toff?

If a company is sitting on price sensitive information as an AIM listed Company then the rules of the sewer regulated by Mr Marcus Stuttard and the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation, notably rules 10 & 11, dictate that, the company must disclose it at once via RNS. But when your company is chaired by a Tory Toff like Lord David Willetts I guess that rules just do not apply. Rules are for little people.

Another day – another disgraced penny stock to leave AIM: Morses Club

Why, surely its CV makes it just the sort of company that Marcus Stuttard, the bogus Sheriff of AIM, wants to attract?

Nanosynth – as the share price collapses the sheer scale of the 26 August mendacity is exposed

Needless to say, the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation have failed to force serial dog Nanosynth (NNN) to correct the grotesquely misleading RNS of 26 August in which it claimed that a Lanstead death spiral deal meant that it had secured “ a conditional subscription to raise £2,942,500  through the issue of 535,000,000 new ordinary shares of 0.01 pence each in the Company at a price of 0.55 pence per Ordinary Share.” That was a big fat fecking lie and with the shares collapsing to 0.42p, i.e less than they were before the deal was announced and a couple of subsequent ramptastic bullshit RNS’s. Mr Market is waking up and smelling the coffee even if the bogus Sheriff of AIM, Marcus Stuttard, and his colleagues are asleep at the wheel.

Vast Resources, death spiral provider Atlas and Nomad Roland “Fatty Cornish” bring AIM into disrepute – letter to AIM Regulation

Today’s shocking news is not evidence of illegal behaviour, I am told by a member of the death spiral community. I am not so sure.

Marcus Stuttard the world’s most clueless regulator MySquar Caption Contest Result

Presented by myself, in October 2017, with slam dunk evidence that AIM Casino listed fraud MySquar (MYSQ) had committed wholesale fraud, the boss of AIM Regulation Marcus Stuttard did nothing. So MySquar was able to raise millions more pounds on the casino and private investors have lost everything. Still Stuttard thinks he is doing a good job. We captured the moment Marcus received the MySquar report in the picture below and as you can see HERE, you supplied many suitable captions.

Marcus Stuttard, the world's worst regulator receives evidence of fraud at MySquar caption contest

In October last year I presented thje AIM Regulation team headed by the man who ludicrously allowed himself to be dubbed the Sheriff of AIM, Mr Marcus Stuttard with slam dunk proof of massive fraud at MySquar (MYSQ). He did nothing. MySquar raised millions of pounds AFTER that from issuing shares which after today are now worthless as the fraud is laid bare. Mr Stuttard's failure to act has cost investors millions. And this is not his first lamentable failure. Is he the most useless regulator on this planet? Anyhow, he is pictured below after receiving my proof of fraud at MySquar last October. Please supply a suitable caption by midnight tonight in the comments section below.

Oh dear. Oh Dear.

A Letter to Marcus Stuttard and AIM Regulation – suspend Andalas now and stop the bailout placing

Almost out of cash, Andalas Energy (ADL) is gearing up for a bucket shop placing c/o joint bucket shop brokers Novum Securities & Optiva in the usual way: a ramptastic podcast with PR genius Steffi, 2 ramptastic RNS announcements and a ramptastic paid for podcast with Vox.  The trouble is that its claims have now been directly contradicted by its partner in the North Sea Badger field, Atlantic Petroleum (see HERE). If it turns out that Andalas was making unverifiable fantasy claims, as it appears, and raises money at an artificial price on the back of that, this would be a clear case of Securities fraud. In order to stop that the shares must be suspended at once pending a statement.  I have written to the fake Sheriff of AIM, Marcus Stuttard at AIM Regulation as you can see below.

I have written to Marcus Stuttard, the head of AIM Regulation, demanding an immediate investigation into whether SP Angel should retain its Nomad license.

Letter to AIM Regulation - Time to end the MySquar fraud Farce and to Strip SP Angel of its Nomad license

The past week has shown clearly why MySquar (MYSQ) shares should not be traded on any market, even the AIM Casino. I demonstrated HERE that it had lied to investors in an RNS this month. That lie stands uncorrected. I demonstrated HERE that without any doubt it had committed wholesale securities fraud on July 31. This was chapter and verse stuff and MySquar is now exposed.

Few, other than the clowns such as Marcus Stuttard at the LSE, can argue against AIM having delivered absolutely dreadful returns for investors.

Strip out a handful of massive winners like ASOS and Domino's Pizza and the AIM Index is into double digit losses.

China – AIM just does not get it – shocking revelation

AIM is owned by the London Stock Exchange and regards itself as the junior market for the world. I regard it as a casino and its regulation department headed up by Marcus Stuttard, the self-styled Sheriff of AIM, as the biggest joke in London. I now have a shocking revelation for you which exposes the conflict of interest which will destroy what little credibility the casino still has.

AIM (i.e. the LSE) makes its money simply by having as many companies listed as possible. It does not matter if the companies are good companies which make money for investors or are frauds which steal money from investors, AIM just wants companies to list. And to stay there. And with that in mind the idea that it can regulate itself is like asking the fox to take care of the chickens.
