Letter to the FCA: Wildcat Petroleum & Lying

Last night Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) was forced, by the FCA, I Suspect, to issue a groveling RNS admitting that its Chairman and CEO Mandhir Singh had, in effect, lied to investors on a Director’s Talk podcast. But this is the tip of the iceberg. I have written to the FCA which is the regulator of the Standard list.

BREAKING: Did the FCA tell Mandhir Singh of Wildcat to admit he was lying?

Rather like a celeb caught making sexist comments on social media and forced unto a grovelling apology, Mandhir Singh of Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) has been caught telling complete lies and after hours yesterday came the confession via RNS. A “clarifying statement” is how the RNS is headed. It should be “Mandhir is a fucking liar.”

I start with the Mrs heading to a conference. She was map reading as we drove to the airport. We missed two turns so were late. Naturally that was my fault I then move on to the mendacity if the Autumn statement and then to naughtiness at Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT), called out by Charles Tatnall, for once a hero not a villain, as you can see below. Then it is Ariana Resources (AAU), Regtech Open (RTOP), and Victoria (VCP) which really could be a zero, Stay short.

Told y’all – Wildcat dissembles in the face of a hugely discounted bailout placing

I told you all, repeatedly, that a) Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) was running on vapours, b) that it was a worthless POS and c) that no serious investor would touch this with a bargepole and that any bailout would thus be a hugely discounted offering for flippers only. Well guess what folks: it’s ouzo on cornflakes tome for me, more poverty for those who think they know better than I do.

Wildcat Petroleum - you cannot defy gravity forever

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?

I also explain for BB Moron Stuart Little why breaking the news of the placing was not only not illegal but was a real public service by me and also why I shall be writing to the FCA later asking for it to investigate placings by Turner Pope and Turner Pope’s clients. Ben and James, a.k.a. the Mitchell Brothers, that letter is not “market speculation” it is fact you dimwitted bellends.

Jaya and I did some due diligence at the coal face today and I explain why I may be buying if I can get hold of the great man tomorrow.  Then it is onto Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) and the corruption of the deadwood press (the Sunday Times in this case) and finally a detailed look at Malcolm Stacey favourite Strix (KETL) where I have been a bear.  The shares are down 69% over the past 13 months and after today’s news I see an easy 30-40% more downside from here. With an EV of c£400 millionand a £270 million market cap it should be shortable and should be shorted.

However, nearly all of the money which did come in after spiv investors flipped the shares they had been issued without paying for, has now been spunked.

I discuss the arrests made on 29 December in the USA and why the FCA should look at some of the activities of folks in the UK small cap world. Case studies include Eurasia Mining (EUA) and Chill Brands (CHLL). I then move on to Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and its news today, Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) and also Verditek (VDTK), which I reckon is a zero for 2022 but since it can’t be shorted is not one of my tips of the year. To JP, sorry I have no idea why Peel Hunt quit as broker to Bushveld (BMN) but I suspect it gave three months notice. Leaving SP Angel as sole broker can’t be seen as good news. It is like firing our beloved West Ham as joint broker to retain the sole services of Chesterfield Town.

It’s latest news really would turn aman to drink. But there is worse still to come.

Wildcat Petroleum- this is a £57m grandiose farce of share price manipulation & news puffery

As a reminder: Standard listed Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) lied with its first RNS last December 31 about having raised money. It had not. It now has sub £200,000 left and, ceteris pairibus, will go bust by Easter. Its June 30 accounts were promised for October and are still not yet out, with no explanation for the delay. Its November AGM has had to be postponed with no new date given. But in what appear blatant market manipulation its shares are roofing it. Why will the FCA do nothing? Today we have news…

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: the silence of Superdry and the sleaze at Nightcap - surely this is a 0/10 for G (as in ESG)

I start with news of two birthdays. Then I look at today’s Superdry ramp from Versarien (VRS), at Wildcat (WCAT), where the FCA has already responded to  my missive, and at Nightcap (NGHT) where what I have revealed today is legal but surely stinks to high heaven making the shares utterly uninvestable.

Letter to FCA: Wildcat Petroleum lack of results, AGM delay and financial position

Yet again I write to the FCA the regulator, no sniggering at the back, of the Standard List about Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT), a company which lied in its first ever RNS, on 30 December 2020, and is still at it. At some stage, surely, the FCA must act to protect the integrity of the market. Is that more sniggering I hear at the back?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - a helpful graphic explaining the Cineworld smoke and mirrors today

I record from the Welsh Hovel which is once again a building site. Excuse any background noise. I look at Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) and its uncorrected and untrue 4 October RNSThen at the fraud Chill Brands (CHLL). In both cases the regulator, the hapless FCA, should be acting right now. Then it is onto Cineworld (CINE) and, with the graphic below – hat tip EB. I explain why its trading statement is so deceptive and why the shares are still a sell. Finally a few words on Optibiotix (OPTI) & Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) and today’s confirmation of what a good journalist I am. What does it mean for both stocks?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: I am contacted by a psychic PR man, I kid you not, it was scary

I start with the tale of the psychic PR man and Edge VCT. Then I look at Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT), Powerhouse Energy (PHE) and Supply@ME Capital (FRAUD). we live in a world that is truly bonkers. Then I ask if Avon Protection (AVON) shares have fallen too far on today’s, admittedly bad, news

Wildcat Petroleum- where are the promised results? What are the scamsters hiding now?

This is the company that lied in its very first RNS on December 30 2020, claiming to have raised £600,000 for its IPO when, in fact the money did not arrive until January when “investors” had been able to flip their shares to raise the cash for the placement. Between then and now it had boasted of utterly spurious crypto and NFT deals then, one suspects under FCA pressure, reverted to its prospectus gameplan of trying to do an RTO in oil.  But now another lie.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Is it because they think I'm English I asked as Wrexham Council came visiting?

I put then straight that i was of Irish descent but my local village council are having a go at me again and so sent in two officers of Wrexham Council. To be fair they agreed with me and think the villagers are, again, acting like total poltroons in harassing me whereas the previous owners were allowed to dump asbestos and so whatever they wanted. I explain all in the podcast but suffice to say I am angry. Then I look in detail at Tern (TERN) and go far further than Lucian did earlier HERE. Then onto Union Jack (UJO) where nothing  ow makes sense. I also look at the crazy world of Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) once more and add my tuppence worth on the scandal that is Seraphine (BUMP).

Wildcat clears decks for bailout placing and it is now being forced to tell the ghastly truth

Make no mistake, a bailout placing is underway at Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) as revealed in yesterday’s bearcast. Today, a new adviser to replace disgraced Pello Capital, currently banned by the FCA from doing any business, has forced it to come clean so that it can place.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Placing alerts on Union Jack & Wildcat Petroleum

I have an update on the Union Jack (UJO) placing which I forced it to ‘fess up to last Friday and I can now reveal that worthless ramp Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) is now seeking fresh equity at almost any price. At 1p, a £21 million market cap is about £21 million too high in my book. I also discuss Jubilee Metals (JLP) and Mark Slater and that links nicely to an IPO I am dodging and I explain why I am passing on what appeared a likeable and competent team. Finally a detailed look at perennial dog Mirriad (MIRI) whose shares are – despite slipping 10% today – still a stonking sell.

The rise and fall of Reggie Wildcat Petroleum - still another 1.5p to go to zero!

One of the great ramps of the year has been Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT), a poster boy for the sewer that is the Standard List regulated, no sniggering at the back, by the clowns at the FCAIt started its career on December 30th by lying to investors in its very first RNS. It said that it HAD raised £600,000. It had not.

Letter to the FCA – Enquiry into Wildcat Petroleum IPO needed now

This is pretty clear. Even the woke dullards at the FCA should be able to sort this out with one phone call demanding that Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) produce its bank records from 30 December 2020 to 31 January 2021 or maybe later. I have sent the letter below.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Will gold hit $18,000 - do I have to mention Cheryl?

I start with events on the Isle of Man and general covid lunacy and how that makes everything – including MyHeathChecked (MHC) – such a gamble. When will this track and trace madness stop? It is sheer insanity. Then I look at the gold price reviewing my portfolio and finally a few words on today’s expose on Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) where the silence of its scumbag advisors is deafening.

BREAKING: Did Wildcat Petroleum tell a monstrous porky in its very first RNS?

If the FCA was not staffed by such useless mothers, it would have forced Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) to issue a brand new prospectus just 6 weeks after its December 30 2020 listing as it announced a whole new business strategy. But the FCA is not fit for purpose so it will, I expect, ignore black and white evidence that the very first RNS issued by Wildcat was a whopper of a porky. On the (sub) Standard List who cares?

Tom Winnifrith Photo Bearcast: Celebrating the Eden triumph but humiliated by Andrew Bell again

I start with logistical issues. Thanks to Andrew Bell and Red Rock Resources (RRR), I need to find another hat to eat on video. This may take a while but I am a man of my word. I discuss Red Rock and why Bell has let me down. I end with a picture of where I was at lunchtime with Joshua celebrating today’s personal triumph re Eden Research and KPMG. Then I look at Verditek (VDTK) where surely the FCA or the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation must act now. Today’s news begs more questions for the AIM Shit of the year 2012-20, Richard Gill, aka Gollum. Then onto Hurricane Energy (HUR), Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) and Eight Capital Partners (ECP) part of the Supply@ME Capital (SYME) swamp.

Wildcat Petroleum – more borderline fraudulent misrepresentation via RNS, surely the FCA must act

Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) is putting out statements which are so misleading as to be on the borderline of fraudulent. As it is Standard Listed there is no Nomad to sign off on RNS releases which clearly are deceptive and it is thus down to the woke dullards at the FCA to act to stop jerking off on ESG porn and to act to stop Wildcat misleading investors. Today’s RNS is just utter bollocks, surely the FCA must act.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: A long edition - How on earth can Professor Taeed NOT resign and retain any credibility?

I start with news at the Welsh Hovel notably on the Ha Ha. More photos on a range of developments later.  Then I have a quiz question for you before going onto detailed discussions on: Conduity Capital (CCAP) which I mistakenly call Continuity Capital throughout, St James House (SJH), Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) and Verditek (VDTK) with an explicit come clean challenge for another fine upstanding ex Tory MP.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: this one is for Keith

In this podcast I discuss the idea of “shit investing”. I look at some stocks which are merde like Tiger Royalties (TIR) and Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) and things David Lenigas might ramp and others which are not and which I discuss in detail, notably Jubilee Metals (JLP) and Summerway Capital (SWC) run by the wonderful Vin Murria.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: should I rebrand to bullcast as shameless Big Dave gives a lesson in fake price targets

Mr Lenigas is at it again as I show below. I discuss whether I should capitulate, call this bullcast and move on. And what that says about the state of the market. I feel like Tony Dye in 2001. Then I try to explain the maths behind RTOs and acquisitions by shells as folks just don’t seem to get it. I reference the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and Wildcat (WCAT) in this section.

WildCat - from mad to double mad to double mad + 22%

This gets more insane by the minute. Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) shares are up by another 22% at 3.35p today valuing this company which listed with a £2.4 million valuation on December 30 at an astonishing £80 million.  The founder, who paid £35,000 for his stake just fifteen months ago now sits on shares valued at £56 million. Move over Nigel Wray, Jim Mellon et al… Mandhir Singh is Britain’s real Buffett!

Bonkers becomes truly insane: A company with no revenue £300k cash and a £60m valuation - yet more shame on the FCA

I warned a couple of weeks ago that Wildcat Petroleum (WCAT) was the most bonkers valuation on the market. Since then, it has got 30% more bonkers thanks to insanity and non news today.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Wildcat a lesson from 2001, one of its directors should need no reminding of

There was a lot of excitement today at the Welsh Hovel with moving compost pits. More on that gripping subject later. I then look at Hurricane Energy (HUR), Cellular Goods (CBX), Coral Products (CRU) – once again as a value buy, Wildcat (WCAT) and the Zoetic (ZOE) linked harassment of myself and Peter Brailey.

Wildcat Petroleum – is this THE most bonkers ramp in London?

Wildcat (WCAT) was established as a private company on 8 January 2020 with £50,400 of share capital. Those shares are now valued on the Standard List of the London Stock Exchange at just over £30 million. The whole blockchain related affair stinks because the real tangible value of this enterprise is 99% less than that! Let me explain.
