The death of Iconic Labs Part 1 - is Katharine Lewis committing what used to be a criminal offence?

After yesterday’s debacle, Katharine Lewis, is now the sole remaining director of Iconic (ICON) which means it is breach of the 2006 Companies Act which requires all public companies to have at least two directors.  However, that is the least of her worries.  The main concern, and one which should be getting the appropriate professional and legal advice about is Iconic currently trading whilst insolvent and should she ask for the shares to be suspended whilst it clarifies its financial position?  Trading whilst insolvent was until recently, for a director, a Criminal Offence. It should be again.

Coms – blatant market abuse and is the Nomad set to resign?

Coms (COMS) is the gift that keeps on giving. In today’s instalment we have wholesale market abuse and the question of when the Nomad might jump ship. Meanwhile the company needs to clarify its financial position. Is it trading only thanks to the support of banks who could pull the overdraft at any time? Methinks yes.

The market abuse first. Yesterday a blog post appeared HERE which purported to give specific details of a takeover bid at 5.6p per share even naming the party. I have naturally reported this to the FCA for giving out information one knows to be false is called market abuse. It is a criminal offence.
