EXPOSE: Bluebird – discounted placing ahoy, bonkers acquisition is a related party stinker and making no sense at all

Bluebird (BMV) has today announced that it has paid £75,000 in cash for a 120 day option to buy El Alamo Resources Ltd for £250,000 – with more payments depending on progress. This stinks to high heaven.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Not really passing my MOT either

The car failed outright on Friday and is being scrapped. But mine today suggests a lot of remedial work needed. So as soon as this is live it is off to the garden I go for hard labour.  After that I discuss Pensana (PRE), Bluebird (BMV), Anglesey Mining (AYM) and , in detail , all the red flags about the Ashington Innovation (ASHI) RTO announced today.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: 2 birds who want to get their mitts out for the sads

By that I mean that they want to get their hands on dumb money in a placing: I discuss when and why for Bluebird (BMV) and Blackbird (BIRD). Then it is rate hikes/cuts, why the UK has stubborn inflation and gold. I look at Mirriad (MIRI), Valereum (VLRM) and Probiotix (PBX) with its accounting boo-boo but cracking results.

Carillion boss fined by the FCA: what does that mean for Bluebird’s Sath and the fraudster Stuart Ashman?

I fear that the answer is not very much. Not because it shouldn’t but because the penalties handed out by the FCA are so utterly piffling. The FCA wants us to get excited as former Carillion CEO Richard Howson was yesterday fined £237,700 for his part in misleading statements being issued by his company. Put that in context. In his last full year in charge Howson trousered a total package of £1.5 million. His payoff when he left as the firm collapsed in 2017 was £660,000.  He was CEO for five and a half years and his net wealth must be closer to £10 million than to £5 million.  This fine is a drop in the Ocean.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 1: Optibiotix & Bluebird

Two companies where I hold shares. Both have announcements that are on balance positive but I put up caveats on both and have advice for the two CEOs which will, no doubt, be ignored.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: the greed of Piggy Austin is just not acceptable

I start with a few thoughts on a visit this morning to the post industrial wastelands of Salford. Gosh it was grim.  Then a schoolboy error on Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) but it only makes the case  for filling your boots stronger. No, I have not got a scooby about why Bluebird (BMV) shares are up but I speculated and put together a few pieces of the jigsaw.  I look at W Resources (WRES) but would not touch it with a bargepole and then discuss the wholly unacceptable greed of Andrew “piggy” Austin at Kistos (KIST)

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast 2nd May - why I like gold & why we own what we own

is this is a bullcast? We have 15% of our portfolio in gold becuase we are bearish about shares. Does that make sense? I discuss why you should own some physical gold and then why we own the shares we do, notably Petropavlovsk (POG), Ariana (AAU) and Wishbone (WSBN) but also much smaller amounts of Eurasia (EUA), Bluebird (BMV) and Armadale Capital (ACP)
