Actually it might be more thanks to the worthless confetti being offered at just 0.01p. There is a WRAP retail offer underway which might take the total up by £200,000 to £1.7 million but even just on the Allenby placing and a £200,000 payment from a US company to join a reselling jv, Mirriad insists it can survive for another 12 months. Maybe. But maybe not – with the shares 99.9% down from the IPO, this perma bear wins a bonus ouzo today..

Shares in the insolvent fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) have now been suspended for 13 days because of its failure to get tin pot auditors Bright Grahame Murray to sign off on what will be a work of fiction, that is to say the calendar 2024 accounts. Supply insists this is just last minute bean counting, the reality is that Bright will not sign off an insolvent company’s books when the only source of funding is Nuburu (US:BURU) which is itself insolvent and has welched on agreed funding commitments. Will the latest filing from Nuburu hoodwink Bright unto signing off?

We’ve previously recommended shares in BP (BP.) but sold in 2023 when a 516.4p share price meant the prospective dividend equated to a 4.3% yield. The company was also then, with Chair Helge Lund and CEO Bernard Looney, emphasising “investing more in the energy transition and BP’s transition” instead of recognising the multiple examples of ‘go woke, go broke’. However, the company has recently, much more sensibly, emphasised “a fundamental reset of our strategy – to grow the upstream, focus the downstream and invest with discipline in the transition”, yet the share price means the prospective dividend equates to a near 7% yield. The following details why we consider the shares now again income value.

If you are on the main market after you have issued a certain number of shares you need the FCA to sign off on a prospectus to be allowed to issue more and get them admitted to trading.

Perhaps the great Warren Buffett’s most well-known investment saying is ‘to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy when others are fearful’. With the tariffs chaos unleashed by Donald Trump, it has recently largely been fear which has reigned on global stock markets and, considering the roots of that fear, that is particularly so on global trade volumes. However, Trump’s subsequent moves already suggest the fear is likely overdone and we, therefore, now look to be greedy amidst the logistics sector fear with a business whose shares were already valuing it at a material discount to its end-2024 £4.6 billion European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA)-basis Net Tangible Assets.

There are still folks out there, not least shareholders in First Class Metals (FCM) protesting that all will be well with the 79th Group ponzi fraud and that I know nothing about mini bonds and am talking out of my posterior. I think that if I go on Mastermind, mini bond ponzi frauds might just be my specialist subject if they do not allow questions on the life, loves and songs of Ms Cheryl Cole . One mini bond fraud that I exposed in October 2019 and where, natch, the FCA did SFA to protect investors was the Buy2Let cars, an £88 million fraud.

The dog is still eating the auditors homework so we still do not have audited accounts for the year to March 31 2024 from Chill Brands (CHLL) let alone the following interims. But progress is being made and thanks to Jonathan “kiss of death” Swann it looks as if Chill can hoodwink the auditors that it is a going concern and so we should have numbers out in May. That is the good news.

Folks like the Lemming thought that Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) FD Manprick Randhawa was the bees knees and were jolly cross with me for rebranding him for his patent incompetence. In my view he was useless, unable to communicate with serious investors or to stop Stuart Ashman abusing the word accretive and, at least, partially responsible for the cack handed and dilutive financing of two acquisitions. He was unable to control costs. Well, today, he has gone to pursue other business interests. Great news.. It has prompted me to buy more shares, increasing my holding by 25%.

V22 was a Plus (now AQSE) listed company that invested in contemporary art. I quite liked its fragrant founder Tara Cranswick who seemed to know her stuff and so put in a five figure sum.

Okay I accept that most folks also hold a dim view of journalists but, with the exception of penny share trader and phone hacking crook Piers Morgan, surely we are, as a profession, viewed less unfavourably than lawyers. If not, what is happening at Anexo (ANX), a main market listed law firm should change that view.

Actually I do not. AQSE Regulation has shown over its failure to deal with the prospectus fraudsters still running Eight Capital Partners (ECP) that they are just as useless as the Oxymorons at AIM regulation. I bet both are pretty hot on sniffing out directors who might have made a sexist or transphobic remark but in terms of stopping white collar crime? Forget it.

Croda (CRDA) has a trading statement out today and the Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) obsessives are looking at how revenues from consumer care leapt by £18 million, Quarter on Quarter, to £255 million in Q1 2025. Natch they speculate as to how much of this is Skins related, bearing in mind that Skins would get a double digit margin on whatever is sold. I reckon the answer is “norra lot” but such speculation has pushed the shares up to 25.5p. Now here is my guess for the next RNS!

Good companies hire good Nomads. Mediocre companies pay less to hire mediocre Nomads. And the worst companies on AIM gravitate to London’s most useless Nomad, Roland “Fatty” Cornish in the same way as he is now gravitating towards a large packet of hob nobs ahead of elevenses to keep the wold from the door before he waddles off for a 12 course luncheon a bit later. Had he had a shred of integrity. Cornish should have quit acting for Cleantech Lithium (CTL) after it emerged that its CEO had effectively offloaded his entire holding at up to 53p per share without telling a soul.

The fall from grace of money broker Argentex (AGFX) has been spectacular, even by AIM casino standards.

The following is why that suggests upside from a 75.7p share price.

With the connivance of London’s worst Nomad, Mr. Roland “fatty” Cornish the former CEO of Cleantech Lithium (CTL) Mr. Aldo Boitano has made out like a bandit, breaking listing rules and without suffering any financial consequence. Today he gets a bonus as the company also announced a bailout placing raising £2.4 million at 16p. Remember that price. This just stinks as does the cover-up of how Aldo has been protected from loss while banking £3 million dumping shares.

The village was also home to the “railway killer”. The investment proposition fifteen years ago was that Kent has the same soil as Champagne but acreage in the garden of England was far cheaper than in Frogland. However, global warming would by now make the temperature in Kent the same as that in Champagne fifteen years ago. But…

With the FTSE 250 hit though, a 860p offer price for the shares compares to approaching 1000p last summer, higher than that in previous years and even a start of 2025 above 900p. We consider this provides an opportunity, considering also the dividend payments here.

Don’t all start sniggerinng but the FCA is charged with ensuring that markets for shares remain orderly. In light of that I ask you to consider the case of Supply@ME Capital (SYME) on the main market, a company that is a fraud, run by a liar and is technically insolvent. In a normal world the FCA would have suspended trading in its shares because Supply is a fraud, run by a liar and is insolvent, but the FCA is useless. However…

In its last RNS of 29 November, Catenai (CTAI) made the following statement “The Company continues to carefully manage its working capital position.” This isn’t that surprising because in its interim accounts to 30 June 2024 Catenai had net current assets of £566,763 but this included cash of just £4,759. Within net assets was a loan note receivable of £450,000 plus accrued fees of £117,500 totalling £567,500 due from Klarian Limited. So, the loan represents the majority of its assets.

It would have more institutional support and fewer niggling concerns about financing.

Amaroq Minerals (AMRQ) has announced that sampling at the Eagle’s Nest target 31 kilometres from its Nalunaq gold mine in Greenland has identified two distinct sub-parallel gold veins and gold grades up to 54.5g/t, with “initial geochemical results suggestive of a similar mineralisation style to Nalunaq”. This looks to further demonstrate the exploration, as well as production, potential we’ve been emphasising here. And this is critical for Nalunaq on its own justifies a premium to the current share price but it is the massive exploration potential that will attract potential corporate bidders within a couple of years. The faster Amaroq explores, getting results like these, the more a bidder will have to pay.

Having proved that on this website, the UK regulators did SFA and InternetQ was taken private with the assistance of Martin Hughes of Tosca Fund and rebranded as Akazoo.

Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) is very simple. If you believe that Croda could deliver £25 million GP or anywhere close to that as CEO Stuart Ashman has intimated the shares are stupendously cheap at 17.75p.

Hell’s teeth why issue shares now or indeed at twice or three times the price given that on Ashman’s Croda numbers the shares could easily be 100p or even 200p! But Ashman is a git.

Shares in Argent Pharma (RGT) have collapsed to 8.5p after a dramatic flip fop on its delisting plans. I told you that this company was a worthless piece of crap run by charlatans when its stock was a consolidation adjusted 225p on January 11 2022. How they all protested. TW knows nothing, TW is batting for diseases affecting the CNS, yadda yadda yadda. *Ouzo on cornflakes time again.

On the 19th of November the hapless Minchin recorded an interview with Proactive, which you can see below, covering the company’s Clink #1 well at the Ingomar Dome Project in Montana. After an RNS today the question is whether Minchin should be in the clink himself for telling a lie or whether he is just a fool, not fit to run a public lavatory let alone a public company.

As long term readers know, almost every year I plant a newly purchased Christmas tree in a large wooden pot, hoping that it will survive Christmas and then flourish outside until I can bring it in for the following Yuletide.

Peel Hunt’s head of research Charles Hall has this morning warned that scrapping IHT relief on AIM shares will not raise £100 million to save the NHS as predicted by Rachel from Customer services but will in fact slash tax revenues by £1.1 billion this tax year rising to £2 billion per annum thereafter. You do not need to be an economist to see that this is a spectacular own goal.

At the height of the Quindell (QPP) scandal I contacted an MP, Sir George Young, now Lord Young, who represented a Hampshire seat so whose constituents were almost certainly directly affected by the fraud happening at Farnham. As he is my step uncle and second cousin once removed I expected a reply and it duly arrived: don’t worry about this I am sure the FCA has it all in hand. Of course, the FCA, despite repeated warnings did not.

So the timeline now reads: Thursday last week, ramptastic video interview with Doc Holliday. Monday this week, hugely discounted placing, no doubt aggressively forward sold. 24 hours later, bad news. It all looks a bit unfortunate and the shares are now 0.305p, below the 0.33p subscripti8on price. It is lucky that there was a window for spivs to forward sell.

Both have positive news which as a holder of both Ariana (AAU) and Amaroq (AMRQ) pleases me. But only one flicks the share price dial short term. Long term I explain the potential upside in both, it is all about risk and reward. as an older man I prefer lower risk lower potential reward but you might float on a different boat.

As you can see below, Mike Whitlow/Doc Holliday recorded an interview on behalf of ECR Minerals (ECR), which he now runs, which went out on November 21. The interviewer was Andrew Scott who is also a NED at ECR so it is not exactly a full on Paxman style grilling. So this hard sell recording went out on Thursday, this morning ECR announced a subscription, raising £950,000 gross at 0.33p.

If you think that Bitcoin is overpriced at just under $100,000 then a possible stock to short is MicroStrategy (Nasdaq:MSTR) at $422 which describes itself thus: “MicroStrategy® is the world’s first and largest Bitcoin Treasury Company.” You would be following the strategy of a well-respected short seller Citron Research which initiated a short a few days ago. Its thesis was that MicroStrategy’s market capitalisation was far to far ahead of the value of its bitcoin portfolio.

Zak Mir’s Lift Global Ventures (LFT) waited until late in the day Thursday to publish its annual report on its website so I have taken a deeper dive into its numbers. Lift has a structural problem in that even if you ignore the investments write offs of £750,000 in Trans Africa Energy and £67,106 of other mostly investment losses it still generated a loss of £159,046 on revenue of £476,506. So, its ongoing business is not sustainable as a public company because of the cost base.

But as I stepped out of the back door I realised at once what was happening. “Come quickly Joshua, come Jaya guess what’s happening?” I shouted. A few seconds later “it’s snowing” they screamed in joyful unison. But this was not meant to happen.

My cousin Alex unearthed this gem at the weekend. The old man is Uncle Chris reading a paper perhaps ten years ago. On the front is a photo from 1963 of Richard Ingrams, Uncle Chris at the typewriter, and Willie Rushton working on an early edition of Private Eye. The quote, in these dark times for free speech, is very apposite.

A day later the fire is still burning away but last night it roared. Sittng on an old chair was the pumpkin from Halloween, with hair added by Joshua to depict our chancellor Rachel, from accounts, Reeves. It is probably a hate crime but along with a paper marked fake CV she went up in smoke as you can see below.
