KERBOOM: The after hours fess up from Caracal Gold – it is far worse than even I imagined, folks should be in jail

A lot of ouzos for the Sheriff for this one! And I am told that there is now an FCA enquiry into Standard Listed Caracal Goal (GCATfollowing extensive correspondence from myself. Damn Right, there should be. At 4.45 PM yesterday there was a fess up with the company tripping over itself as it tried to cover up its crimes. This company is insolvent and its directors should be in jail. It is hard to know where to start.

Is shorting Neil Woodford stocks like shooting fish in a barrel? I argue not and explain why it could be dangerous. I look at the FCA enquiry into Woodford and question whether its remit will be wide enough.
