In this podcast I discuss the damascene conversion of the Mrs on a couple of issues and I say “thank you” to those donating to Woodlarks on the Christmas grotto appeal. We are now almost 75% of the way to target so if you can spare a fiver ( or more) please do so today HERE. I look at Verditek (VDTK), Tern (TERN), Red Rock Resources (RRR), mention Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX), Cellular Goods (CBX) and have a look at Parkmead (PMG) where i am not convinced that Peter Brailey is right to be just so bearish.

In the latest video podcast from Palisade Capital, perhaps the world's best known resource fund manager, Rick Rule of Sprott, discusses the surprising lack of volatility in the markets and with the various worldwide challenges one would expect it to be much higher. He is not optimistic when one looks at the collective balance sheets of governments with their underfunded pension plans and is acting on the assumption that the markets will get more volatile.

In this regular bearcast I look at why this is not a one man site. I also explain reasons why I am getting more and more bearish about shares generally. There is brief comment on Altona (ANR) and International Personal Finance (IPF) and then a very detailed look at the Fairpoint (FRP) car crash and the wider lessons for us all.

In the first bearcast of the day I explain why going into 2016 I am far more bearish than I was going into 2015 ( and I was fairly bearish then) and how that shapes my investment decisions - what to avoid and what to do with existing positions and how too many investors really must be smoking something...next up the Death List update (and boy am I doing well see HERE)

Greece is getting interesting again and in this podcast I explore who will be the big losers from Grexit and it won't be Greece. The fallout threatens many aspects of the Western financial markets but the bigger threat is interest rates which are going to rise sooner than you think. Warning: this podcast contains extreme bearishness

Malcolm Stacey is a great man and one of the nicest guys in shares. But his bullishness about equity markets is wrong. And here is your 10 point checklist as to why it is right to be bearish.
The Malcolm thesis (see HERE) is that UK Corporate earnings are increasing rapidly as the UK economy grows and that is set to continue well into 2015. For what it’s worth I agree with him. The UK economy is doing (relatively) well but I’d caveat that UK PLC generates a large portion of its income abroad where life is less jolly and where – given the strength of sterling – earnings when repatriated will be less in UK terms. But other than that I agree with the Stacey thesis so far. But here are the 10 reasons why I am bearish.
