Today, sub scale investment in rubbish AIM dog Tern (TERN) published its results for the year to 31 December 2025 which showed a loss of £5,089,148 and net assets per share halved from 2.0 pence per share to 1.0 pence per share. It is hard to know where to start with such a dog’s dinner

I have long pointed out that Defence Holdings (ALRT) is an over-hyped overvalued box of frogs. That the shares have slumped from 4.1p on October 1 last year to just 1.225p today vindicated my repeated warnings. Even today the company is capitalized at £45.5 million which for a cash guzzling company with SFA revenues and very little cash is bonkers. Now can I put 2 and 2 together and suggest that this is still a stonking short.

Yesterday the Chris Cleverly linked POS that is Technology Minerals (TM1) announced a conditional fundraise raising gross proceeds of £2.085 million at a price of £0.0005 per share. Technology has a number of hurdles to overcome before it actually receives the cash because as the fund raise was below the nominal value of Technology shares it is required to completing a subdivision of shares. It also requires shareholder and FCA approval and publication of a Prospectus. But let’s assume that all happens…

I draw your attention to the London South East Asylum yurned sewer of a chatroom Valereum (VLRM) thread where today’s postings include a discussion of me having sex with my wife ( I kid you not), all sorts of defamatory allegations that I pay folks to post there as part of a clickbait model or that I am posting there myself under numerous aliases and idiots like Crazy Colette insisting that no news is good news and the shares are about to roof it. That is apparently all fine and dandy. But there is a voice missing.

Rod McIllree joke company 80 Mile (80M), formerly BlueJay Mining, is at it again, doing what it does best: issuing yet more shares. This is another AIM shitco where you almost lose count of the gazillions of shares issued and where the market is now numb to the pain of further dilution and failing to ask: who benefits?

After a while you sometimes just lose count of the number of shares a company has in issue. A hundred million new ones there. 600 million ne ones there. In the end your calculator just runs out of steam and you know that Fat cat insiders will end up owning most of the equity. The greed of Sath Ganesarajah at Bluebird Mining (VMV) in rewarding himself for abject failure in terms of value creation is just nauseating. You may want to look away or at least get a sick bag ready.

As at 30 September 2025 Frankenstein Meat company BSF Enterprise (BSFA) has bet current assets of circa £200,000 but its losses last year were almost £100,000 pcm. And thus news that it has raised £385,000 before expenses ( call it £350,000 net) does not entirely get it out of the woods. By my sums the company would, ceteris paribus, have net current assets today of …virtually nothing as of today. I suspect there was a lot of non bill paying in the lead up to that placing.

With an aggressive ATM death spiral in place Hamak Strategy (HAMA) is a stock for financial masochists only. Its shares are now 0.725p which means the market cap is down to £3.34 million.

WeCap (WCAP) shares closed on Friday at a mid-price of 0.325 pence per share for a market capitalisation of £1.44 million. This is massively down on the value when I first started commentating on the company back on 5 December 2025 when We Cap was valued at £9.73 million. The perceived value was and is attributed to its stake in We Shop Holdings, which is a Nasdaq listed company.

As I have noted before, ATMs, aka death spirals might work when a stock is flying. But when it is tanking they act to stop the share price gains on the few up days and cannot be used on the many down days. Thus they crush the share price and that causes volumes to dry up and thus bring in ever reduced proceeds. Today’s ATM update from the Smarter Web Company (SWC) is horrific and leaves its shares at just 50p to sell.

Of course I refer to Lord Ashbourne, aka Charlie Gibson, who is the convicted felon. The Australian is ‘arry "trougher" Adams of Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI). This video discusses financing close at Tulu Kapi, how there could be four or five Tulu Kapi’s within Kefi by 2030, lithium opportunities and, most convincingly, Saudi opportunities. Though not the greatest fan of either man, the video is pretty compelling. As gold heads back above $4,000 Kefi is back at 1.5p and I stand by my view that with final funding set to close within weeks the shares could well double from here by Christmas. Enjoy

And on that basis I stand by my suggestion that, at 20.9p the shares trade on a 2026 PE of 5 falling to 0.8 on 2027 numbers. That is why I bought more shares this week and will continue buying in the belief that on a risk/reward basis there are few cheaper stocks on AIM today. Enjoy.

To think that four years ago this was a high flier with a share price of 172p and an order book of hundreds of millions of dollars. Sales = vanity.

I shall be writing to the FCA shortly but today’s announcement from Hamak Strategy (HAMA) beggars belief. Quite clearly its proposed #35m double death spiral funding will trigger a change of business, an RTO, and thus it needs to get a prospectus approved by the FCA to go ahead. I have offered the company’s advisors a chance to comment but they appear to have declined. Let me explain the problem.

On 25 September Hamak Strategy (HAMA) CEO Nick Thurlow told mug punters in an investor meeting that his company was fully funded for 12 months.

The lack of fiat at Hamak Strategy (HAMA) means that it urgently needs to either start selling its pile of bitcoin or do a fund raise, either straight equity or death spiral CULS. Either way it won’t be pretty for its share price. But a bitcoin sale would expose what a farce its value addition via shitcoin treasury strategy is. Do the maths stupid!

Okay, I am biased. At 91p I am more than 100% ahead and Amaroq (AMRQ) is my biggest holding but I am not selling as a) I want to maintain exposure to gold and b) I think the shares are very low risk and offer massive upside. My own view is that the company will get taken out at 150p+ next year as gold majors engage in frantic M&A activity.

Oh dear, oh dear as disgraced tipster Mike Walters used to say as yet another one of his share tips blew up. Did he ever tip Versarien (VRS)? Cash guzzling, a proven teller of lies, lots of jam tomorrow, it ticked all of his usual boxes. Today there is more bad news and it comes just eight days before the deadline for anyone daft enough to want to bid for any of its assets including Neill Ricketts collection of Gloucester Rugby club signed jockstraps and the equally worthless shares in Gnanomat.

Though I have a well known penchant for Asian Babes, I have long argued that CEO Naheed Memon is running a crock and should just wind the whole show up. Today it has raised £500,000 gross at 0. 0.014p. But…

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.

Yes, I still think that shares in Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) are cheap at 19p, that there will be three quarters of revenues from Croda booked in the year to June 30 2025 with two quarters fully paid. But I see that the shares are off a penny today because we know what is looming.

On balance it is very good news from both but there are issues with executive pay and other matters that still fill me with anger. That does not make the shares anything other than very cheap, it just makes me cross.

With disgraced penny share hustler Zak Mir Not being a great numbers man it is worth reminding him that this Wednesday is April 30th and that is the latest in a series of serially revised deadline days when it claims that insolvent Trans-Africa Energy will repay it £1.25 million to Mir's Lift Global Ventures (LFT). That is an original loan of £750,000 plus an additional £500,000 for constantly agreeing to defer repayment from last August.

Managing partner Robert Moore knows that he is on notice and any slip up will see him landing in the soup with the regulator.

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%.

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.

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.

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 fragrant Warwick University philosophy student who is running Oxford Cannabinoid (OCTP) into the ground, Ms. Clarissa Sowemimo-Coker is delighted to announce that the subscription element of the £1.1 million net 0.5p per share fund raise announced on January 30 has now completed. Already the bid is, at 0.47p, below the fundraise price, always a bad sign as the new shares do not start trading until 20 February. But worse is to come.

Roger Lawson of ShareSoc said I was wrong and did not understand tech stocks like he did, Globo had £40 million of cash and was profitable. Then Gabriel Grego compiled a bombshell dossier. Snot gobbler Dan McCrum at the FT did not have the balls to publish it but alerted the CEO who sold millions of pounds worth of shares over the four days until I obtained and published the dossier, the shares were then suspended, there was no cash, no profits it was a fraud, a slam dunk fraud.

My shocking expose of Dispensa (DISP), the crock formerly known as Zamaz, where I’ve been a perma bear since its September 2 2022 IPO at 11p seems to have somebody panicking. The shares have today crashed by 42% to just 0.95p. Which will be the next rat to jump as there is far worse to come. I shall kick off with a couple of questions for those such as PR goons Walbrook and VSA Capital, where I am unwitting shareholder, to consider as they ponder how much more reputational damage they can tolerate.

Oh dear, Oh dear as the shamed tipster “old Mother” Mike Walters used to say when one of his shite share tips went horribly wrong. Oh wait: Verditek (VDTK) was one of his shite share tips! Its shares were 20p at peak Walters enthusiasm. They are now 0.11p after an admission today that it is giving up the solar panels business and becoming a cash shell, albeit with almost no cash. The big red flag here which Walters overlooked was that Verditek repeatedly lied about contracts won to get placings away only to ‘fess up afterwards that the contracts, even those described as take or pay, had not happened. So, serial lying and thus fraud…always a bit of a red flag.

For having their shares suspended for more than six months because of a failure to publish interim and full year accounts, Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) and Live Company (LVCG) should have been booted off the AIM sewer on January 1 and February 1 (today) respectively.

However, I want to flag up that for a company with sales lower than that of my local CO-OP and which spunked c£3 million in each of the last two years, the boardroom pay is obscene and just cannot be justified. The worst offender is the Sus barbatus himself, CEO Stuart Ashman.

After hours yesterday came the news of another casualty on AIM – the world’s most successful growth market. Real Good Foods (RGD) is going to be calling in the administrators and shares have been suspended this morning. 125 years of trading history is going up in smoke.

Acquisitions to drive growth. Placings to fund losses. And yet more losses. The clues are there and, as young Steve Moore has warned you frequently, Crossword (CCS) is a share you really don’t need to own. 14 months ago there was a fund raise at 21.7p. Today after the latest warning the shares are just 8.5p. Ouch.

Oh dear. Oh dear. Do you remember when the brown envelope man Zak Mir and penny share promoter Dave Lenigas debated whether Valereum Blockchain (VLRM) shares were worth 100p or 200p as they ramped ahead of a placing? Valereum now, finally, admits that the reason it could not buy the joke Gibraltar Stock Exchange is that it could not raise enough cash to satisfy regulators at the GFSC. That deal is off, the shares are unsuspended and have fallen to just 2p and the new board is now going after former boss Richard Poulden

Any shareholder in a company linked to career fraudster Chris Cleverly of Tingo (US:TIO) infamy, aka the first cousin of our esteemed Home Secretary, is bonkers. And thus I have repeatedly warned folks about Technology Minerals (TM1). It now seems that some of the cultists, who gather on a closed Telegram group to discuss what a complete bastard and ignoramus I am, how Chris Cleverly’s farts smell of roses and and how they will all get rich, seem to be getting restless. One has written to chairman Martin Brundle making rather damaging allegations. Thanks to Winnileaks, I bring you the letter below. Suffice to say, anyone holding the shares, at 1p, is certifiable.

The funding will also support us with working capital and strengthen our balance sheet”. Tom Winnifrith has applied for shares in the offer and we suggest you do too BUT Ashman is talking bollocks and we will be slashing our target price from 150p.

It is only 18 months since Vast Resources (VAST) did a 100 for 1 share consolidation telling its thick as pigshit shareholders that this was to allow it to pay dividends. Of course, there was zero chance of that it was all about being able to issue more shares at above par. Since that consolidation which took the shares from 0.1p to 10p the shares have fallen by 98.5% to just 0.155p. And prior to that consolidation the shares had already fallen by more than 99% since IPO. This is a company that funds a gravy train for managers and advisers and screws shareholders. Today there is more bad news.

Companies owned by Alessandro Zamboni of the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) infamy were meant to provide loans of £2.5 million by early September but he could not dump enough stock so did not. Revised payments in 4 equal instalments totalling £2.063 million were meant to complete yesterday. Have they?

Frankly even that valuation is nutso. It gets murkier and murkier.

I would like to apologise to Mr. Andrew Monk for suggesting that his claim that I was a shareholder in VSA Capital (VSA) was a vile smear. I have now tracked down the share registrars and it appears that a share certificate for 2,000 shares was indeed dispatched to a wholly out of date address. I am thus the owner of shares which might just be sold for a paltry £120.

Wood Group (WG.) was a tip last year at a 155p offer price – with we then noting we looked to repeat previous success of a more than 40%, less than 7 months, offer-to-bid gain. In April this year we banked more than 45%, little more than 9 months, gains at 226p. Following recent half-year results which emphasised “clear strategic progress, strong growth and increasing full year guidance”, though with the shares at a 156.7p offer price we consider this again a good time to Buy.

Today we have half calendar year numbers from a company still capitalised at almost £2 billion and the smell of Sanghera bullshit is strong.

The struck off dentist, the history of bogus deals and a valuation of £135 million for a company late with its filings and technically insolvent is surely just too much for the FCA to allow. I have already contacted a responsible fellow at broker SI to suggest that its rogue employee Jon Levinson who is masterminding a raise here has gone too far. The FCA is next up, when I get to the Greek Hovel and can work with a clear mind.

Smith stepped down in September and within weeks there was an awful profits warning and the new CEO had to start slashing costs to survive.

For fanboy Gary Newman it looks like cold cabbage water tonight. And if anyone is thinking of bottom fishing as the shares have slumped by 23% to 216.5p. Don’t! Things will get worse.

Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) lied in its first RNS, claiming to have raised £600,000 pre IPO when, in fact, the cash arrived only after the IPO so allowing punters to sell their stock into a pump and pay for it afterwards. That should have told you everything. At peak ramp just over two years ago the shares were 3.7p. Today they have slumped by 22% to 0.35p but guess what?

And so as it hurtles towards running out of cash by Christmas, it is trying to spoof investors to allow the spivs at Novum to get a bailout placing away. Today there is an obvious spoof.

Allowing for a share consolidation, shares in Mercantile Ports & Logistics (MPL) – now 3.5p – really are down 99.86% from the IPO, not bad for a safe real estate development company operating in one of the world’s fastest growing economies (India). Okay so the last CEO has recently pleased guilty to a $300 million US securities fraud, we have highlighted numerous red flags on this website over the years but it has a Tory toff on board ( Lord Flight) so I suppose it must be terribly pukka after all. Today, yet another placing and retail offer with £8.9 million raised at 3p. Who could be so mad?

Maybe they are chartists or followers of Doc Holliday. I don’t know. Words fail me. Anyhow CEO Mooky Greidinger seems happy. Screw the plebs.

The tweet below is the latest pathetic attempt to ramp shares in Versarien (VRS) so that it can get away one last placing before June and avoid insolvency. In pushing the fantasy that the company will soon be awash with grant money David Burton of Total Market Solutions fails to mention a number of critical points.

Heaven knows why this US based POS maintains a dual listing on the (sub) Standard List. It really is a cash guzzling crock as we have pointed out on numerous occasions HERE. In the first part of this year Okyo Pharma (OKYO) managed to pump its shares up to 5.5p with a series of spurious and ramptastic RNS’s. Then as the Bulletin Board Morons took they trousers down, whoosh, a $5.5 million funding arranged by the company not its brokers, came in at just 1.85p. Ouch. And double ouch. One hopes that the morons had lubed up.

In today’s RNS Iconic (ICON) announced that it had received a “Conversion Notice was dated 27 March 2023 and provides for 50 Convertible Notes to be converted into 1,315,789,473 ordinary shares of £0.00001 (“Ordinary Shares”) in the Company at a conversion price of £0.000038 at the aggregate principal amount of £50,000.” With the issuance of another 1,315,789,473 new shares, the Company’s issued ordinary share capital is now 43,106,916,660 shares. Yes that is more than 43 billion shares in issue.

Alastair Smith has been running Avacta (AVCT) for 16 years and after 16 years he has yet to launch an actual product. So on what basis are his pay increases calculated?

Scotgold (SGZ) claims that its directors emails have been hacked and that “specious emails sent in their names to numerous people.” The clear implication is that the email I published on Saturday, HERE, discussing administration and a cash crisis is bogus. It is not it is genuine. The “specious” emails referred to were, according to my source, sent to employees, not insolvency lawyers at Fox Williams. Even its death throes it seems ScotGold dissembles and, in mentioning the Police paints itself as the victim. It is not the victim shareholders are. The company is in its death throes because it has fessed to as much today causing the shares to, as I oft predicted they would, crash. Told y’all! What follows is grim.

I start on journalist ethics, that is to say not selling shares before advising readers to and a chap called Magna Carta who reminds me of the weeds in my strawberry patch. Then onto Rogue Bloggers where Andrew Bell says he is joining us and bringing a fantasy woman. I shall bring Cheryl. Please donate HERE. Finally, referring to Sarah Willingham and Dame Sharon White of John Lewis infamy (see the Daily Mail article I refer to HERE) I suggest that a glass ceiling for women in business has been replaced by a wooden floor.

This may not be the end of this fraud. But it is certainly the beginning of the end. The unravel is underway, the rats are staring to abandon the ship now lurching lower and lower in the water under a growing weight of red flags. Anyone now holding the shares is completely insane.

It’s all an all share merger of equals, each side getting 50% of the enlarged equity, with every Cenkos shareholder getting 3.19420647 New FinnCap Shares for every one Cenkos held. A marriage of equals you say? That is to say two businesses that have been equally disastrous investments. Merge two bad companies and what do you get?

Three years and five days after listing on the Aquis lobster pot after raising £4.25 million at 110p British Honey (BHC) has today gone bust and appointed administrators. I warned that it was “uninvestable” when the shares were 114p in October 2021. Today it is game over. As I consider honey and ouzo on my cornflakes, the list of warning signs were there for all to see. Natch folks knew better than Old Tom.

My Frog is not that good but the documents below sent to Winnileaks seem to suggest that Zenith Energy (ZEN) has been totally booted out of the Congo. That would surely be bad news for this long term dog with fleas and surely a clarifying statement is needed. Suffice to say, anyone holding these shares, now a paltry 0.4p to sell, is bonkers

At 1.1p Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) is capitalised at £26.4 million. Its results for the six months to 31 December are out today and are – as you might expect – piss poor. I wonder if anyone owning shares in this Standard Listed dog can read a balance sheet?

Every year since its IPO Verditek (VDTK) has announced a big new contract win, spiking its shares, and allowing to get a bailout placing away to keep the Fat Lady at bay for another year. Then it admits that the contract has come to nowt. With its cash set to run out by June it has today announced a new contract. Is this the boy crying wolf yet again? Or is there a real wolf this time.

Not only does Andrew Monk and VSA Capital list shitcos on the Aquis Lobster Pot but VSA itself is listed on Aquis too. It listed at 21p on 9 September 2021. Its shares are 49% down so far this year and can now be sold for just 10p. But has the Monkey legged over investors with a misleading trading statement. I think the graduate of Oriel College Oxford (has he told us about his posh education yet today?) has and have written to Aquis Regulation suggesting it force VSA to clarify.

I start pondering retirement, then look at Credit Suisse and Gary vs Chris on buying shares right now. Then it is onto Versarien (VRS), Verditek (VDTK), lying by Reabold (RBD) on its takeover bid, Cineworld (CINE), Ben’s Creek (BEN) and that scumbag Adam Wilson and the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME)

You want to know why Berenberg quit as joint broker yesterday as Versarien (VRS) also fessed up that Neill Ricketts was still a director earning £16,500 a month despite “resigning as CEO” a week ago? It will be when it discovered that, enabled by the bent journalism of Ian Cowie at the Sunday Times pumping the shares, SP Angel was doing a smash and grab deeply discounted placing to raise a paltry £318,000.

Shares in Aquis listed Silverwood Brands (SLWD) are almost untradeable. That did not stop pompous Andrew Monk boasting that his fees for Silverwood buying a stake in Lush from Silverwood’s directors for £216 million (in shares) would ensure that VSA would make a profit this year, having been loss making to the tune of almost a Bernie at the interim stage. Today there is another update from Silverwood showing what utter crap VSA has told investors.

Medcaw (MCI) listed on the disgraced Standard List just before Christmas as an investment vehicle looking to make an acquisition, yadda, yadda, yadda. Yesterday its shares collapsed by just over 60% to 2.5p as one punter decided to make a sale on a day of market turmoil. There is no liquidity, no demand and maybe this is why.

At least Cowie, one of Britain’s most senior personal finance journalists, is honest that he is a poltroon, admitting to buying shares in Versarien (VRS) at 177p. They closed Friday at just 3.5p although in his column today where he explains why he is hanging on for a bounce, Cowie says the shares are 5p. But the dishonesty of the journalism is epic.

If I had a quid for every time I warned that shares in Wandisco (WAND) were at a bonkers valuation based on reported revenues, I’d be able to buy a season ticket at Wrexham. But today we discovered that most pf those reported revenues were made up and that the size of the emerging fraud was big enough to bankrupt a company which, at £13.10, was capitalised at £863 million. Now the shares have been suspended as investors face calamity in AIM’s biggest scandal for years.

At 4.15 PM yesterday shares in Atlantic Lithium (ALL) were suspended, having crashed thanks to the bear dossier which I publish in full below. The reason – a pending statement. That statement is now out and trading in the shares resumes. Atlantic says it “refutes” the dossier which means that it denies it. But how convincing is the denial?

I start with a rant about the fecking GPs and the bloody teachers as approx. 0.0 inches of snow accumulates and my father in law has to go to hospital again. I am so bloody angry about both. Then it is onto the collapse in the share price of Atlantic Lithium (ALL) – about which I explicitly warned you all just under four months ago HERE – after a bear dossier was published: see below. Then I look at Red Rock Resources (RRR), some of the #IWD jokes including one from Jeremy Corbyn and one from Guild Esports (GILD). Finally it is ouzo o’clock as musicMagpie (MMAG) serves up dire results and warns of tough times ahead. Footnote: at 4.15 PM Atlantic shares were suspended “pending an announcement”
