It was only just a smidgeon over a month ago that cash guzzling perma dog Powerhouse Energy (PHE) raised £650,000 at 0.2p to keep the lights on with the scholars and gentlemen round at Turner Pope doing the honours.

Another day, another disaster on the AIM Casino with £60 million now probably up in smoke. This is a tale of a technical problem at Clean Power Hydrogen (CPH2), management incompetence and broker spivery with the scholars and gentlemen at Turner Pope. The net result is that punters may well lose everything but today's RNS 'fess up is far from complete. Oh no. For that you need Winnileaks.

Some things in life are certain. Death. Taxes. Me making smutty jokes about shagging Cheryl Cole. And Predator Oil & Gas (PRD) issuing results saying that it is fully funded for 12 months and then doing at least one placing within that 12 months. Today, on deadline day, it has snuck out quite diabolical 2025 numbers. Natch, the old coot in charge Paul Griffiths blames the piss poor share price performance on folks like me saying hurty things and I guess he is still going to report me to the FCA. I blame the piss poor share price performance on piss poor numbers.

Oh for the days when disgraced former Tory Minister Tim Yeo, Zak Mir and other charlatans ramped Powerhouse (PHE) with tales of how it could be running hundreds of waste to energy plants each chucking off half a Bernie a year in profits. Those were the good old days, it may have been a pack of lies but the shares flew and thus was a true AIM posterboy. How the mighty are fallen.

The announcement came after hours yesterday, almost at nobody is watching O’Clock. I wonder why. For it is bad news at every level. As oft warned here, shareholders better lube up for they are going to be utterly shafted.

The WRAP Retail offer in Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) was, we learned today, about 75% taken up. So spivs like Nigel Somerville get everything they applied for but it is clear that many folks shared my disgust at the mendacity of Harry “the shyster” Adams and opted to say no. I think the shares are very cheap but I cannot stomach buying any more. Alongside the placing and WRAP offer there are other shares being issued.

Falconedge (EDGE) is the bitcoin in treasury spoof blessed with the services of the tattooed lady, the PR Genius Steffi, as a director on a three grand a month screw. It has today issued an update which is profoundly misleading and is yet another monster red flag.

Today Kavango Resources (KAV) has announced that it has raised c$8.4 millon gross at 1p – a material premium to yesterday’s close and so that is some achievement. Well done. But the maths does not quite stack up and they make Monday’s RNS claims from Kavango look like a total Jackanory. Let me explain.

My esteemed colleague Peter “fagash” Brailey insisted more than a week ago that Eco Buildings (ECOB) was losing money so needed to do a placing. I contacted Chris Gilbert at Eco about this.

The exodus at AIM continues. Today two AIM index 100 companies announced that they will be leaving the market.

Much as bears shit in the woods and I have inappropriate thoughts about Cheryl Cole, Predator Oil & Gas (PRD) has discounted placings. All three events happen regularly and are just so predictable, unless the bears need more prunes in their diet. The thing about Predator is that you simply cannot believe a word that it says.

Today CPP (CPP) issued a shareholder update which a time of writing saw its share price crater by 46%. The reason for the drop isn’t due to a lack of cash as the extract from the RNS below indicates.

On January 16th the FCA will push through new rules for prospectuses and the new rules are at best a kick in the gonads, at worst, another nail, in the coffin for the AIM Casino.

Defence Holdings (ALRT) promised back in September that the first “value realization” on its AI spoof project Ixian would be in December. We are still waiting both for Santa and for any meaningful news on the Ixian front. I only believe in one of the two promised Advent arrivals and he’s an old guy with a long beard.

Ouzo for the Sheriff of AIM! It seems that the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation and hapless Nomad SP Angel of the Mysquar fraud infamy have indeed acted on my exposes and missives of last week. For today 80 Mile (80M), the £30 million shitco run by “colourful” Rod McIllree has ‘fessed in an RNS.

Celadon Pharmaceuticals (CEL), the pot play run by scallywag James Short delisted from the AIM casino arguing that it failed to value the company correctly and that a private company could raise funds more efficiently. After numerous exposes on this website the news, or lack of it, is ominous

Hamak Strategy (HAMA) will see its shares crushed from January thanks to a #5m funding facility provided by US death spiral outfit Yorkville, broker AlbR (bucket shop Novum as was) and set up by disgraced Adam Wilson of the Ben’s Creek fraud infamy. I explained why this must smash its shares from January onwards making the stock utterly uninvestable for anyone other than financial masochists HERE. Now this Axis of evil has another victim, Nativo Resources (NTVO), already a dog but now one whose shares will be obliterated. Here’s why.

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. With negative net current assets that was clearly disingenuous, either Hamak had to sell some of its 20 bitcoin or it needed to issue shares. Today it has announced not one but two death spirals! Confetti ahoy!

There is an RNS from Kefi Gold Copper (KEFI) this morning but not what we were hoping for. Funding for Tulu Kapi has not yet been agreed by the banks and Kefi had told us that it would be by the end of this week. Well: tick tock. Tick Tock. Give ‘arry Adams another frigging bonus to incentivize him. Perhaps he has already done his four days this week and is thinking twice about working another for additional pay?

At 7 AM on Tuesday 30 September Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) served up interims, sugaring the bitter pill f more crap numbers showing no restraint on boardroom greed at all, by promising that the two banks for sign off on project funding for Tulu Kapi “within the coming week.” What do you think that means?

Once upon a time in the shameful days of Horse Hill which was bigger than Saudi Arabia according to David Lenigas, shares in UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) were more than 10p. Today they have rocketed by 321% to…..0.043p! Every dog has its day. But before folks rush to fill their boots on the back of a hopium packed RNS today, beware that rapacious brokers at Zeus and CMC are already forward booking in the commission funded Ukrainian young ladies: a discounted placing is a nailed down cert.

The Smarter Web Company (SWC) has announced that it has issued another 21 million shares to Shard Capital for it to flog on to its clients under a death spiral which is just bound to drive the shares down. If you look at how the first 21 million death spiral played out even Angela Raynor and her crack tax advisors can figure out the maths and how this plays out.

I am not certain if the FCA is going to do anything about the Touchstone Exploration (TXP) scandal where the company said it had raised £15,375,000 million on May 8 only to fess up weeks later that brokers led by Keen’s Oak Securities had welched and that in fact it had only raised just over £5 million. With Keen making a series of excuses before the final welching, he created a false market and Touchstone’s balance sheet was left holed beneath the water line. Now it gets worse.

Another day and another bookbuild from The Smarter Web Company (SWC)sees it raising another £17,543,942 gross at 295p, call it £16.5 million net after fees and commission for Tennyson, Peterhouse and others with urgent bills from the Ukrainian Young Ladies and Colombian import merchants to pay. So suckers will pay 295p for a fully diluted NAV of, say, 38p. Guess how that works out in the long run! Following the issue the new maths at a $118,545 bitcoin price are:
