My many times repeated bearcast assertions that I cannot recommend others own the stock are to be ignored (even just on Friday as I stuck the knife in I concluded with the CRAP phrase! - a phrase any City person knows to mean sell) and that I am a scumbag for not flagging here that I was going to sell my shares before I did. This and another Evri disaster put me in a bad mood. I walk you through events from Friday morning and explain why I believe I acted correctly but apologise if you think I did not. I offer AGM voting advice for those still holding Skins. To appease the mob, I flag up that I may sell my Optibiotix (OPTI) shares but explain why I am not selling Probiotix (PBX)

Letter to the FCA, AQSE Regulation and Oberon: time to act against Zak Mir and Lift Global Ventures

Enough is enough. A man who endorses the actions of a CEO who weaponizes suicide is a man that the City should cold shoulder. But it is not on that basis that I have written to the FCA, AQSE regulation and Oberon, the advisor to Zak Mir’s Lift Global Ventures (LFT). The brown envelope man needs to be put out of business for committing what I argue below is, industrial scale, market abuse.

Before anyone chucks money down thus bottomless pit surely they have a right to know if the management are mendacious or purer than the driven snow. I have written to the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 1: 75 minutes with Andrew Webley, he's not a grifter, he is a nice guy but what about Smarter Web shares?

For various reasons I found myself on a video call with Andrew Webley today. We had scheduled a 30 minute chat but we talked for 75 minutes. I am a miserable man with few friends but I admit that I like Webley and would happily go for a non alcoholic drink with him. He has made errors but I can accept that they were not deliberate and he is thus definitively NOT a grifter. So does that make shares in The Smarter Web Company (SWC) a buy? No. And I explain why. But at 44.5p are they super overvalued? They might be if bitcoin crashes or if Strategy (US: MSTR) blows up and I don't think Webley would disagree. But he, like many others reckon neither will happen despite the obvious red flag of the corporate jet Strategy is buying for Michael Saylor as you can see in a regulatory disclosure below. . I discuss all of this and bring you the good news that Webley will join me on stage at Sharestock 2026 on September 5. To get your tickets at 2025 prices you must book before December 31 HERE

UPDATED after 2nd CEO call: How low will some folks stoop for money? I ask the question of PR platform Investor Meet

It seems that for the 3rd time in six weeks Amazing AI (AAI) is set to appear on the Investor Meet platform. I wonder how much Investor Meet is trousering for platforming Paul Mathieson who most of the City is rushing to cold shoulder. I called Investor and spoke to its CEO Marc Downes following it up with the email below. Downes seems to think that both Amazing and I have equally valid two sides to a story. He had not bothered to fund out why Guild had quit as advisor last week. Giving moral equivalence to a man who publicly weaponises the suicide of a woman and to the son of that woman is despicable but that is the position Downes seems to take. My email , copying in my lawyers, reads:

Paul Mathieson of Amazing AI (AAI) says that he will report me to all the regulators. To save him the effort I have today reported myself to the FCA, AIM Regulation and AQSE Regulation requesting a full investigation into the allegations against me. I do not short sell, I do not profit from short selling, I am not part of a gang and, as such, suggestions that I am are defamatory. Let’s get the FCA and all the regulators to investigate me in full. I want the regulators to investigate every aspect of my finances so to clear my name once and for all. That would, of course, give me the option of a low cost route to commence legal proceedings against those who suggest otherwise. Remember the onus of proof is on those making the claim.

Letter to Liam Murray, the FCA and AIM regulation: Re Neil Davidson, allegations of lying and Optibiotix

At Saturday’s Sharestock Adam Reynolds of Probiotix (PBX) was grilled on the exact timeline of communications between Probiotix and Optibiotix (OPTI) between September 3 and October 10 last year. If Reynolds is telling the truth and I believe that he is and that any scrutiny of phone and email records will demonstrate that then Neil Davidson, the chairman of Optibiotix (OPTI) has deceived investors in 2024 and lied to the AGM this year. I have written to Optibiotix’s Nomad Liam Murray at Cairn Financial

H&T Group – recommended bid means a now 62.5% less than one year offer to bid price profit

We recommended shares in the UK’s largest pawnbroking and jewellery and watches retailing group H&T (HAT) again at a 395p offer price just under a year ago, considering that they then again appealed on a valuation and income basis. We most recently reiterated that view in March this year with the shares then still below 400p… and now a recommended offer at 650p per share from Nasdaq-listed FirstCash. So with the shares now at 642p to sell, what to do?

Letter to AIM Regulation & the FCA: Investigate Neil Davidson or others at Optibiotix

Someone at Optibiotix (OPTI) may have breached AIM Rule 10 and possibly committed fraud in pushing out a grotesquely misleading statement.

I have written to the regulators, ccing in hapless Nomad Liam Murray at Cairn and broker Peterhouse urging an investigation. Or maybe they will just try to sweep this under the carpet because it would not do to upset the establishment would it?

I answer the question is UK PLC a short worthy of bearcast? Then the latest farce at Wishbone Gold (WSBN). Finally, is Alphawave (AWE) still a short, the trade is crowded but there are a lot of bear points.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 1: Utterly fecked off with Ariana and Skinbiotherapeutics, heads should roll but I am not selling either

Ariana Resources (AAU) has done a discounted placing and Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) has served up crap interims and scaled back guidance. The chairman of Ariana and the FD at Skins, Manprick, should be falling on their swords. I expect to make money longer term from both but short term both have scored big own goals.

An adviser insists there might be. But a 50%+ share price gain ahead of a discounted sub scale placing by Versarien (VRS) makes me smell a rat. Surely AIM Regulation should be investigating? As for Versarien it is still a zero in waiting

I start with events in Ukraine. President Zelensky’s “Victory Plan” could not be more misnamed. Then it is onto the US election and last night’s VP debate. Does the triumph of JD Vance matter? Not a lot. But the polls and the behaviour of Kamala Harris suggest that President Trump has momentum and is, if anything, n ow in the lead. I am already calling the Senate and the House for the GOP, I now sense it is time to start thinking about victory in the Presidential race as well. Get ready to drink bucket loads of  BBC and other liberal tears in 33 days time.

We know that what we are being told is just not true but if the media and the State tell us often enough maybe we will start to doubt what we see with our own eyes, what we hear with our own ears and what logic dictates. From an empty woodshed I reflect on what the Met Office termed the warmest spring on record. And on news out of Poland regarding the Nordstream explosions of two years ago.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: I just hate being lied to

Yes i did have a long chat with Harry Adams of Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) yesterday but I was not lied to and, put it this way, I am not going to sell my shares. I also ad a long chat with someone close to BlueBird Merchant Ventures (BMV) and am not selling there either. It is all go. I start with the lying and it was blatant lying by the BBC on Ukraine. Then it is onto how morally indefensible it is for loss making companies to spaff cash on vanity, ref John Lewis and what was Wandisco (WAND). Finally with reference to those high yielding FTSE 100 stocks, I am in no doubt that Labour will bollocks it all up even more than the useless Tories but think that risk is also discounted.

Then it is onto insurers lie Legal & General (LGEN) as well as banks like NatWest (NWG) and, citing a real expert, I explain why I am increasingly tempted. Then it is onto the death threat for the Lemming Investor. It is to do with Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) and the perp is almost certainly one of those emboldened by Giles Balleny at Cavendish (CAV) who should now be truly ashamed for that. It makes me consider what Britain is becoming and how, if my circumstances were different, I’d be emigrating and will encourage all my kids to do just that.

But those pollls fail to take into account two big elephants one of whom is Kamala Harris and that makes things even worse for the Dems. As things stand the GOP will control all four branches of Govrrnment from 2025 as this is shaping up to be a self-inflicted bloodbath for the team in blue.

The car below is another every day reminder to me of how everything the State is meant to do seems broken despite taxes being at a 70 year high and debt being almost 100% of GDP, on bodged numbers. The real number is even worse. And so to a pal from Oxford who asked and to anyone else who cares, I just say that I do not really care who wins. But egged on by a vile establishment hit job on Nigel Farage, with whom, as long term readers know, I have often disagreed, I am going to vote ReformUK just as a screw you vote against that same establishment within the political and media class GroupThink. The lavatory seeping shit into the River Dee photo article is HERE and expressed a similar sentiment to this podcast.

Tom Winnifrith podcast: The EU Elections, the UK & US elections and Ukraine

I start with the results in Europe and what they mean for Ukraine but also what they hint at in the UK and US elections. In the UK I believe that Reform is now ahead of the Tories in the North, the Midlands, Wales, East Anglia and the South West. I discuss its likely vote (large) and seats (small) and just how few seats the wretched Tories will win. In the US I discuss two now convicted felons: President Trump and Hunter Biden concluding neither conviction alters the November race much but the failing mental health of Hunter’s Dad is becoming more of an issue. I suggest that 4 states considered swing states are now firmly Republican while at leat two, maybe more, considered likely Dem are now “in play”.The polling data looks ever more grim for President Biden and his candidacy in November is increasingly less of a given. In Ukraine it gets worse and worse for Ukraine as I detail.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Looking for yield, ITV dividend can't be safe, what about my pension stocks and Malcolm wrong on the USA

I start by looking at the income stocks in my SIPP and at stocks in my pension I expect to start paying out soon. Then at what to buy for more income. I don’t think it’s ITV (ITV) a Malcolm Stacey favourite and I also take the old boy up on his warnings about America made earlier today.

Tom Winnifrith podcast: is the Trump Biden election now too close to call?

That is what Betfair/The Daily Mail is now suggesting. I look at what the latest polls actually say, whether you bshould believe them and what is driving them. I do not agree with the Mail’s conclusion though I sense a very little bit of a tightening where it matters in the swing states but cannot really explain why as there are two factors right now which should be hurting Biden.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: the Canadian Overseas SEDAR filing spelling out how it will die and shareholders will be wiped out

Shame there was no RNS on Friday. But the SEDAR filing below spells out the slow and the quick death of Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL). Despite the proposed bailout at just 0.15p, it is a slam dunk zero and anyone holding is just mad. As for the motherfuckers at Yellow Jersey who misled investors and smeared me when I first exposed this crock at 2p just 20 months ago, they really should go fuck themselves. I await their apology but am not holding my breath as Dominic Barretto and his team and morally bankrupt pustules on the arse of AIM.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Nightmare on Kefi Street or is it just Halloween

I have just received an email in response to this article HERE. It is headed “Israeli Fascists” and ends “You are a vile and ignorant man. I’ve had enough of you. And before you accuse me of being a ‘Jew hater’,, two of my oldest long-standing friends are Jewish“. I guess that is another customer lost, another idiot who thinks losing £6.99 will make me shut up. I do not mention Israel in the podcast but discuss Caracal Gold (GCAT), Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and Technology Minerals (TM1) and the two critical differences between the Standard list and the AIM sewer. Then to the utterly dishonest release today from Hydrogen Utopia (HUI), a £24 million slam dunk sell. Oh, and I do discuss Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI).

In this podcast I deal with Upland Resources (UPL) – target sub 2p on Monday, 0p in the end – and Kefi Gold & Copper ( KEFI) – target way above current levels – looking at calls for share suspensions, false attacks on bears, the role of the FCA and panicked investors.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Upland admits the 14p, £166m, bid was a complete scam - vindication for the Master of penny share fraud busting

I was on a road trip yesterday so only noticed the after hours ‘fess up late in the evening. Upland’s shares will be destroyed, it is a complete vindication of my coverage and some folks should be going to jail if the FCA, regulator of the Standard List, launches a criminal enquiry as it must do. Upland Resources (UPL) management are – at best – guilty of criminal naivete and negligence, To show that they are not part of a criminal conspiracy, perhaps involving the tweet below, they should be demanding an FCA enquiry – I hope you followed my short advice as these shares will, as I predicted, collapse like a failed souffle on Monday.

Tom Winnifrith Podcast on Holocaust Memorial Day: as Sadiq Khan cannot bring himself to mention the Jews who died, I consider the lies we tell our kids about Bosnia

The timeline below is funded by you the taxpayer and is used to tell our kids about Srebrenica in Bosnia. They are taught fake history. I discuss why so many folks, especially the young, fail to grasp what a holocaust really is, what genocide really is and why it is more than ethnic cleansing. In part this is a history lesson for the young in part a sad tale about why fewer and fewer folks will say #NeverAgain and mean it. The candle may flicker in this house this January 27 but across Europe and America the candles are going out. I refer to this article from two years ago about Srebrenica

Tom Winnifrith Podcast: Radio 4's Today Programme, the Poet Laureate Simon Armitage and the global warming GroupThink

The Poet Laureate is in the Arctic writing poems about global warming. Mr Simon Armitage was interviewed by Amal Rajan and Martha Kearney on  BBC Radio 4’s Today show and it was just so lamentable. The poet talked utter tommy rot and the presenters had done no homework on hard data to call him out. It was the London liberal elite GroupThink  on steroids. With data I call out the lot of them for serving up fake news and fake poetry.

Tom Winnifrith Podcast: The villains are not The Sun and Social Media and the victim is not Huw Edwards or the BBC

The great and the good of the media world are gathering to attack The Sun, social media and anyone who questions their narrative as irresponsible, homophobic or discreadited. Meanwhile they say that poor old Huw not the 7 young folks now to have come forward are the victims. In an era of #MeToo how can Jon Sopel, Emily Maitlis et al be so offensive? All is discussed in this podcast.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: if Piers Linney is worth £69m I am a banana

I question the net wealth claimed by two former Dragons in the Mail on Sunday. Linney’s claim is a joke following the demise of Outsourcery (OUT) as is that of Sarah Willingham of Nightcap (NGHT) which I look at after its latest crap acquisition and lack of profits warning. Then it is onto Wandisco (WAND) and the proposed bailout at just 50p, to Eurasia (EUA) where nothing at all adds up. Then onto today’s ouzo moment, the suspension of Eight Capital Partners (ECP), the insolvent fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and Canadian Overseas (COPL) whose shareholders’  reactions to my latest piece show themselves to be as unpleasant as they are stupid. When Canadian, already 90% down since my first big bear call, heads towards 0p as it will inevitably do I will have no sympathy at all.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Lets go for a quick death and vote Labour and I really am bored with gold

Nigel says that my boredom is a buy signal. But is it? Maybe it is right to be bored as something has changed.  After that a bit on house prices and why I don’t see a mega crash but would not buy housebuilders as Malcolm suggests I do. Finally, why not go for a quick death rather than a slow one and vote Labour? Oh, and I remind you why I may not be at liberty to bearcast on Tuesday. CORRECTION: Fellow Hammer J Price points out that Rice will be on £15 million a year not a week as I said in the podcast..

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: ouzo after 12 years from Warwick and after almost as long from Advanced Oncotherapy

After 12 years of campaigning, a result from Warwick School last night as reported HERE but now another victim of sexual abuse has been in touch so I guess the campaigning goes on. I am almost certain that I will name a paedophile teacher tomorrow. Then more, after I exposed it in almost 300 articles, ouzo c/o Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) which looks to be, effectively, brown bread.  I look at looming share suspensions including Premier African (PREM), Boohoo (BOO) and Revolution Beauty (REVB), the fraud Supply@ME Captal (SYME) and Cellular Goods (CBX), also on deadline day.

I forgot to ask in this podcast how Zeus Capital can be advising both Boohoo.com (BOO) and also Revolution Beauty (REVB) as they engage in such vicious verbals?

Then it is onto a reader request on Gemfields (GEM), Predator Oil & Gas (PRD), Seed Innovations (SEED) – its own worst enemy – and finally Optibiotix (OPTI) and Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX).

Canadian Overseas shareholder wants to cremate Tom Winnifrith and Gary Newman then Guillotine us both

I shall leave you to ponder how one chops the head off ashes but one suspects that this shareholder in Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) is not the brightest spark as he wishes death on myself and Gary on the LSE Bulletin Boards. Of course if he’d sold and gone short at 25p as I advised he would, with the shares at 2.5p and set to fall to zero be happier and richer. But he knew better than a trained oil analyst and thinks he will get rich again if Gary and me are killed. Whatever…

I start with yesterday. I have rewritten all of the Woodlarks articles and hope that you will re-read as they now have a bit more colour and a few jokes and, in a couple of cases, now actually make sense. Thanks so much to all who have donated. You ALL have an open invite to the camp. If you have forgotten to sponsor my last walk you can do so HERE. Then I talk about Avacta (AVCT) its placing I exposed yesterday HERE (might it, in fact, be lower than 90p?) and the denial and stupidity of some of its shareholders. Then I point out that Nigel would have made more money selling all his gold and switching into pasta and cat food ( or even tins of baked beans) so ask can he really still view the yellow metal as a store of value? .

And it is shortable.

If you are not a Primary Bid member and want to take the offer up, sign up HERE and this website will get a small payment to put towards the goat fund. I also mention Amaroq (AMRQ) in this podcast.

If you hurry and book a seat at Sharestock – where less than a third of seats are still free - you can meet the expert, who was also a great Quindellologist – on September 23. You can book HERE

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: The IRA man has another go at me again as Proactive disgraces itself over Canadian Overseas and its N-N-N ouzo time!

I start with my latest run in with my neighbour, the IRA man. Then it is onto Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL). I discuss it deceiving investors, how the shares are a 100% slam dunk sell and also a shocking article about it ( see below) on Proactive not, as I said, by my pal Ian Lyall but by another pal Jon Hopkins. Hoppo should be ashamed. Then I look at Anglesey Mining (AYM), Zephyr Energy (ZPHR ) – hard cheese Cliff – Powerhouse Energy (PHE), Boohoo (BOO), where there is no ouzo for Ouzo man, and nanosynth (NNN) which has gone bust so meaning a vindication ouzo for me tonight and more shame on penny share grifter, brown envelope man, Zak Mir.

Sorry Malcolm.

Tom Winnifrith Postcard: Fortress Bakhmut has fallen to Russia - how long are you happy to be lied to and to give a blank cheque to Ukraine?

I preface this by condemning the Russian invasion and President Putin. I am no apologist but I am a realist. I ask you to consider the real and proportionate scale of losses in this war, if you are happy being lied to by Ukraine as well as Russia and if you are happy to keep writing blank cheques. Finally I offer a scenario by when after a few more blank cheques and much more bloodshed, the West forces Ukraine to cave. Will you consider that money and blood well spent?

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: I was wrong, PL is right, should you fill your boots with Fox on Tuesday

To be fair, I was urging folks to buy shares in Fox Marble (FOX) last week but it seems I was a bit wrong about the maths and our in-house BB savant PL was right. Does that make Fox a raging FYB buy on Tuesday? I then look at ScotGold (SGZ) and yet another scandal and finally at Flip Flop’s Kavango Resources (KAV) as per my earlier piece HERE. Tomorrow I really am on a training walk so please, as I aim to do 15 miles, consider a donation to Rogue Bloggers for Woodlarks HERE

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: the 2 Probes the FCA should be launching into Beckham's Guild ESports today

I start with a personal financial question: my SIPP – for reasons I shall explain – has a wodge of cash. Should I stay in cash, invest in a safe 4%+ yielding FTSE 100 stock or add to holdings in Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) or Jubilee Metals (JLP). Then to economics. the chart below is pinched from Guido and I discuss what it means for UK PLC. Then I look at the 2 matters the FCA should be investigating at Guild ESports (GILD), at Tern (TERN) and at strange matters at BlueJay Mining (JAY), a perma-dog, IMHO, which is always a short.

I start with Matt and the other speakers at ShareStock. It is exactly five months away and – as of today – 60% of the seats are bagged so book yours now HERE. Then it is onto house prices and the affordability issue and why the entire media and political class just don’t get it: Government is the problem not the solution.

I have spoken to the company and would bet the ranch, for reasons I explain, that it WAS insider dealing. I do know who the seller was. Finally, Microsaic (MSYS): will Turner Pope and Singer be found morally wanting? So far it is a YES!

I am NOT a Putin apologist, or a Serb apologist or a denier of Russian war crimes.
