UK Oil & Gas: another placing amid a catalogue of lies

To me UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) doing a discounted placing to keep the lights on is like bears shitting in the woods, the Pope being a Catholic or Jeremy Corbyn praising his friends at Hamas. It is just what happens and so a raise of £750,000 at just 0.2p today should cause no surprises. But then again it is worth winding back a year to see the weasel worlds of both Lyin’ Steve Sanderson and the national treasure and lovable old rogue – who I hope is still off the fags – that is Mr David Lenigas.

Worthless Valereum: shares unsuspended and the new board comes out swinging for Richard Poulden

Oh dear. Oh dear. Do you remember when the brown envelope man Zak Mir and penny share promoter Dave Lenigas debated whether Valereum Blockchain (VLRM) shares were worth 100p or 200p as they ramped ahead of a placing? Valereum now, finally, admits that the reason it could not buy the joke Gibraltar Stock Exchange is that it could not raise enough cash to satisfy regulators at the GFSC. That deal is off, the shares are unsuspended and have fallen to just 2p and the new board is now going after former boss Richard Poulden

Valereum another body blow in Gibraltar, just shut this POS down

Shares in Aquis listed Valereum (VLRM) remain suspended on the Aquis lobster pot at just 3.85p. Founder Richard Poulden has scuttled away and the former rampers in chief David Lenigas and brown envelope man Zak Mir who told us the shares would hit either 100p or 200p have gone strangely silent. The company is technically insolvent. Today another body blow…

BREAKING: More ouzo – its all gone horribly wrong at Richard Poulden/David Lenigas/ Zak Mir promote Valereum

Oh dear, oh dear. Do you remember when the Sith Lord Zak Mir was being pushed brown envelopes to say these shares were heading to 200p while David Lenigas said they were going to 100p repeatedly on twitter? Or was it the other way round. Anyhow that pumping allowed Richard Poulden, assisted by spoofery from London’s new Lord Mayor to do a placing at 64p. I have repeatedly exposed the shenanigans and now vindication for me. Ouzo for the Sheriff no more brown envelopes for Mir.

EXPOSE: The stockmarket high jinks and spoofery of the newly elected Lord Mayor of London Michael Mainelli

I have always viewed the Lord Mayor and Alderman of the City of London as a cross between the freemasons and the Christmas pantomime at the local theatre. But I am told that it is a serious body and that I must show it due respect. Like hell I will, the newly elected Lord Mayor is Michael Mainelli whose antics have featured on these pages in days gone by. Mainelli is best of mates with those pantomime villains of the AIM scene David Lenigas and Richard Poulden.

Lenigas wants to do Lonrho again - has the man got no shame?

Shameless David Lenigas tweets (as you can see below) that to cure poverty in African he wants to do another Lonrho. This is not the Tiny Rowlands “unacceptable face of capitalism” Lonrho but a latter version controlled by Lenigas from 2006 and sold to some Swiss chaps in 2013 for 2.9 billion Rand. What follows shows Lenigas has no shame.

AIM Awards shortlist out – more nauseating self indulgence, but perhaps it tells us where value lies

As David Lenigas so rightly pointed out the other day, AIM is not the world’s most successful growth market, as it claims, it is dying on its feet. It is on track to suffer its worst year in history in terms of fundraisings, investors are set for another year of negative returns and the number of companies is shrinking rapidly to more than 20 year lows. Yet the fat cats, the crony capitalists who have grown rich are preparing for a black tie feast of back slapping and self indulgence, where tickets costing hundreds of pounds and vast drinks bills are ultimately pad for by you, investors. The AIM Awards shortlists are out. It is nauseating.>You pay for the 12 October bean feast as you are shareholders in companies which pay vast fees to Nomads, brokers,, PR fluffies, lawyers and accountants and it is they who are paying thousands of pounds to book tables at this event. It is YOUR money being spaffed. Given how badly AIM has performed this year those firms booking tables should be utterly ashamed. Anyhow, the shortlists are out as you can see below.

The David Lenigas video in full… I need to contact my lawyers

Big Dave has recorded a 90 minute video with some arse-licking interviewer whose name I do not know which, and I really hate to say it, is really rather compelling viewing. Apparently Big Dave has had to sell both of his hundred foot yachts and says that he is really feeling the pinch paying his mortgages. I am almost in tears as I write, considering his hardship, and will be setting up a crowd fund page sharpish. Actually, a lot of what he says makes really good sense.

The rotten flaw at the heart of Aquis – directors can say whatever they want: true or false: Ref Richard Poulden & Valereum

Yesterday I flagged up the laughable interims from the Richard Poulden/David Lenigas/Zak Mir ramp Valereum (VLRM) in which the company claimed that a £6 million overdraft facility was a current asset.  I know that both Poulden and Mir were keen supporters of the bogus cult of Modern Monetary Theory so maybe that is where this all comes from:  rather than printing money, Poulden is printing assets.  I blamed Ms Heena Karani and advisors Peterhouse for allowing this novel, and wholly bogus, new development in accounting to be published. I was wrong and offer my apologies to Ms. Karani and to Peterhouse. Well sort of.

David Lenigas is to ramptastic tweeting what Colin Bird is to pre placing pumps. He just cannot help himself. Today’s special is a picture of two men in late middle age standing in a tax haven shaking hands. Apparently this is very significant for Aquis lobster pot listed Valereum (VLRM), the crypto play pumped to 80p three months ago as the shameless chartist turned penny share stock promoter Zak Mir called it up to £2,  That helped it get away a £1 million placing at 70p. Its shares now trade at 29p but even that is still a staggering 20 times net assets for this loss making business. Maybe three men could shake hands tomorrow in some tax dodging location and that would be even more significant, eh Dave?

NFT Investments – this all stinks like a rotting kipper and will be seen as unacceptable bull market greed: first investment made

David Lenigas was unable to float his poxy related party spoof Lenigas Cuba on AIM or the Standard List as regulators objected to the way he awarded himself gazillions of founder shares at peanuts before raising money shortly after from mug punters at a vast premium.  There was no justification for the uplift it was just greed and even the AIM sewer and the FCA regulated (no sniggering at the back) Standard List have some standards. Luckily Aquis has no standards and so Lenigas Cuba listed there. Of course it ended in tears. But that established that Aquis has no qualms about quite appalling greed. Take NFT Investments.

David Lenigas and Zak Mir MUST be on drugs - the Richard Poulden ramp Valereum

Valereum (VLRM) in the Aquis lobster pot has, as of today, zero revenues and – if it is lucky – £300,000 net cash. But mention the magig bitcoin word, throw in a few tokens and some magic beans and, hey presto, promoter David Lenigas and the Sith Lord Zak Mir reckon the shares should hit 60p. That would be a valuation of £38 million. Whatever you say Gents…today’s ramptastic love triangle from twitter is below.

Richard Poulden - your new hire is bonkers

Yesterday I discussed the shocking share ramp by David Lenigas, Zak Mir, Peterhouse Corporate Finance of Richard Poulden’s Upper Thames Holdings (UPPT), a  business with £300,000 of cash, zero operations, which is capitalised at £6.4 million and still the ramp goes on. Part of that ramp is the hire as a non board advisor of Vinay Gupta, a blockchain guru. Sadly, Mr Poulden your new hire is bonkers. Here is how he explains how we can all become millionaires overnight.

An apology to Mr David Lenigas, the UK's top analyst of gold stocks

Of course, I am not influenced at all by my ownership of a significant number of shares in Wishbone Gold (WSBN), at 15p valued at £24 million. I note the claim, below, by Mr David Lenigas that Wishbone’s gold asset may offer a bigger gold target than that of Greatland Gold, market cap £856 million. If I have ever given the impression that I consider Mr Lenigas a penny share pushing stock promoter prone to laughable hyperbole I would like to apologise. The man, as you can see below, is the most prudent and conservative analyst of high quality gold stocks in Britain today. He is a National treasure.

A Grade share ramping from Big Dave Lenigas – the great man takes to facebook to discuss Greatland Gold

When is an exploration company worth £1 billion? Very rarely. When does its market cap reach £1 billion with almost no, or no, institutional support?  When you are in a bull market and the stock is being ramped by folks saying it could treble again.  Ask yourself would you rather own 40% of Centamin (CEY) which has cash, is producing vast amounts of gold and whose directors are not big sellers of stock or 100% of an exploration play with heavy boardroom selling like Greatland (GGP). Exactly…my thoughts too which is why I own Centamin. But Big David Lenigas owns Greatland and so writes on facebook:

If I have ever given the impression that he is a shameless ramper of worthless penny stocks, having considered his recent tweets on Wishbone Gold (WSBN) where my losses are now down to a mere £27,500, I would like to apologise. I now accept that Mr Lenigas provides quite brilliant and clear analysis of undervalued gold juniors and we should be profoundly grateful for his services.

Is gold a bubble?

Finally, the deadwood press is starting to notice that gold is reaching nominal record highs while silver is racing ahead.

Big Dave Lenigas ousted from Doriemus ...a prophet is without honour

And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands? Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.

But there is no placing as this podcast suggests  - I was "played" as explained HERE. David Lenigas is leading the ramping of Angus Energy (ANGS) shares as you can see below. A placing is on the runway,  Then there is the issue of the shares sales by America 2030 of shares ex CEO and Company founder Jonathan Tidswell-Pretorious claimed to own as we reported here. Quite simply what Angus stated in RNS statements which is what we reported is not what happened and it has failed to acknowledge that and what has happened since. Until it does new Nomad and broker Stockdale must surely stop any placing going ahead - there will be one one day. Listen and despair of the AIM Casino.

In an article earlier today I suggested that my good friend David Lenigas was a slam dunk to win the individual gold medal in the new Olympic Sport of share ramping. But I was concerned that the recent poor form of long term stalwarts  of the Roos, such as Pirate Pete Landau and Andy Carroll, means that the Auzzie team in the freestyle share ramping relay event was in deep trouble. Indeed...

Big Dave Lenigas bounces back - rejoins two boards: Get him back at LGO!

You cannot keep a good stock promoter down. And say what you want about him , and I do, David Lenigas is pretty good at promoting, usually worthless, shares and he is back. In case you had not noticed he has rejoined the board of two of his former charges in the past week. I have today spoken by email with the big man.

Plucking up courage and heading back into the fields...sssssnakes!

After yesterday's encounter with an adder I was not exactly gagging to go frigana cutting today. The only real patches left are thick bushes whrere the shoots can be up to six foot tall and where, one imagines, snakes regard it as an ideal place to sit around waiting for prey. Or me. So I procastinated, swapping emails with David Lenigas, and writing a long piece on Tony Baldry, a loathsome scumbag former Tory MP who makes your avereage adder seem like a nice piece of work.

But I was conscious that I had enjoyed a few ouzos the night before and so needed to spend some time toiling in the heat to burn off those calories and so, in the end, plucked up courage and headed off to the fields.

Full of petrol

Exclusive: Former AIM promoter David Lenigas cameo role in Ghostbusters!

Big Dave stepped down from the boards of all AIM listed companies pre Christmas so maybe the guy is bored and has time on his hands? Poor Dave. Our thanks go out to an eagle eyed viewer who has seen how Mr Lenigas is keeping himself occupied. Having conquered the world of blogging he is now getting into acting as you can see 1 minute and 46 seconds into this trailer for the new Ghostbusters movie. Go get 'em Jabba!

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - Good journalism is not insider dealing & how to make money when we win the Brexit vote

I start with a look at how in stockmarket terms insanity begets insanity. No this is not how David Lenigas thinks of me and my mother but our case study here is Highland Natural Resources (HNR). I think explain why good journalism, that is to say breaking stories that are price sensitive, is not breaking the law. Finally as the polls move our way I ponder how you make money when team Brexit wins the EU referendum. One reason why I think we might win is how Labour voters are shifting and that is covered in a podcast on my own website HERE.

LGO Results - a landmark in confetti issuing horseshit

Announcing your annual results at 1.38 PM ensures that some folks will miss the horrors you reveal. London's most useless Nomad, Mr Roland "fatty" Cornish will just be starting course two of four and so will not be back at his desk until the next trading day. So there is some point in sneaking out the bad news in the middle of the day. And that brings me to the trainwreck with Neil Ritson at the wheel, but David Lenigas driving from the back seat, LGO Energy (LGO).

From lies to smears, David Lenigas is a disgrace - new tweet, what a tool

Earlier this week I ran an article which David Lenigas responded to by accusing me of getting my facts wrong and thus been a pathetic sad person and poor journalist. It is at least better than tweeting about my mother's suicide 40 years ago. I demonstrated HERE that Lenigas was 100% wrong, my facts were 100% right and that he was a smearing, liar, happy once again to mislead his investors. Tomorrow at UK Investor Show I shall demonstrate he is much much worse. Lenigas has responded to his impending downfall with a  new tweet.

UK Oil & Gas and Horse Hill - the most ludicrous pre-placing ramp in the history of AIM exposed

There are two statements from UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) today. One is a hard financial transaction which demonstrates clearly that UK Oil & Gas shares are horrendously overvalued and the other is the most ludicrous attaempt at share ramping in the history of AIM. Defenders of Steve Sanderson, UKOG's CEO, say that he is trying to distance himself from the Aussie share ramper David Lenigas. Frankly even Dave would have struggled to sign off on today's ramping. It is cringe-making and it is noticeable that although it relates to a Horse Hill study, no other Horse Shite company has dared publish these ridiculous claims.

David Lenigas shares pain of shareholders in LGO, Cuba, Afriag etc - Monaco yacht only 36 foot caption contest

David Lenigas would like to let shareholders who have lost a fortune in LGO Energy, Inspirit, Afriag, Lenigas Cuba, Polemos, Doriemus, etc, etc that he shares their pain as we can show in the photo below.

In a bullying email today Jabba The Hutt says that he does not own a 100 foot yacht "that was years ago". Instead in the marina in the tax haven of Monaco where he lives poor Mr Lenigas has to struggle by on a 36 foot Fjord boat which is five years old. According to Yachtworld that would have cost a mere £215,000 to buy so Mr Lenigas is really sharing the pain of those who have backed his various companies.

I am almost in tears thinking of how Jabba has shared the pain. FFS the man is now the patron saint of capitalism.  He is a fucking hero. Give him a Nobel prize. Should we start a whip round to buy him a bigger yacht? Sod the starving millions in Africa they can eat Yusuf Kajee's smuggled tobacco, sod the fight against cancer and to save endangered species it is time we all dipped into our pockets to help Dave.

We have emails from broker Dowgate to potential investors explaining Jabba's plans and saying that the placing would close well before the end of last week. There has been no RNS.

After yesterday's dire news from LGO Energy (LGO) which saw its shares slump to 0.31p the case of Tom Winnifrith vs David Leni-Maths continues and I now bring you another piece of evidence, possibly the worst broker note in history. Analyst Barney Gray at Old Park Lane was either on crack cocaine when he penned this classic back on 21 February 2012 or he was simply writing exactly what the share ramper David Lenigas told him to write. My guess is that it was the latter as Old Park was joint corporate broker at the time. Anyhow, Barney told us that the shares were a buy at 1.2p with a 5p target. But it is what he says in this nonsense that is of real import.

tip TV - the undeclared interests, the Lenigas PR man Bick and a void of transparency in the UKOG ramp

I have noted before that the little watched internet TV channel tipTV charges companies to appear then serves up a soft ramptastic interview and fails to declare that it is being paid to pull its punches and assist the rampathon. This is wholly unacceptable but tip TV persists. I guess it needs the cash.

The last reported accounts (year to September 30 2014 - HERE) showed losses of £178,717 and period end net current assets of £102,204. Hmmmm sweet FA viewers, spunking £15,000 pcm it does not look good. Better get a few more companies to pay for ramptastic interviews. But it gets worse. I am reliably informed that the company was almost out of cash just before Christmas so we can assume that when 2015 accounts finally come out they will also be a train-wreck. Oh...it gets even worse...

David Lenigas companies have been among those getting interviewed most often and in the softest possible terms by t1p TV interviews such as the investment prostitute Louise Cooper and Zak, the Sith Lord, Mir. Not only did these folks not tell their viewers that companies were paying for soft questions what they also neglected to mention is that a major shareholder in tip tv is David Bick.

But for now I ask David Lenigas who is at best a keen promoter of this POS if not a shadow director, what his pal - and fellow despicable smearer of critics -  Yusuf Kajee is up to on March 17?

David Lenigas ramping and spoofing the morons on LGO Energy, a familiar script

The unnacceptable face of capitalism, Mr David Lenigas, is today ramping shares in LGO Energy (LGO), spoofing the army of lobotomy patients that appear to follow him, into buying the shares, with his own peanuts purchase. The shares are now 0.33p as these poor fools are parted from their hard earned savings, as they are played, spoofed, by the fat Aussie share promoter.

Tom Winnifrith bonus Bearcast: David Lenigas your soul will burn in hell (mental health smears) & LGO RNS unspun

There is an RNS out from LGO Energy (LGO) which is being spun as a triumph. It is not. The shares are up 37% today (so just 90% down on the IPO) but I systematically expose the truly bad news LGO is fessing up to. David Lenigas is - as you can see - on twitter having a go at me. Like his tobacco smuggling pal Yusuf Kajee he plays on the suicide of my mother, implying again that I have mental health issues. I do not, but Mr Lenigas will see his soul burn in hell. He is shameless and all folks with any conscience will just refuse to have anything to do with him.

Lenigas Cuba - another ramptastic load of bollocks from David Lenigas

Another day and another dismal attempt by David Lenigas to ramp shares in ailing Lenigas Cuba (CUBA) on the ISDX lobster pot. Hmmm. Lenigas tells us that ISDX - not AIM - is where the liquidity is so how come not one fucking share has traded in this company since 18 February with not one share traded after this latest ramp and with the shares (listed at 5p) stuck at 0.5p to sell just 3 months later? Answer please Mr Lenigas? And so to today's ramptastic bollocks from Jabba The Hutt.

Thank you for your kind messages about my late cat Tara. Today I record with morbidly obese three legged Oakley listening and try to get him excited with an imaginary ffing dog. Actually it is the Chris Oil of cats. I explain. I also look at Stanley Gibbons (SGI), the London Stock Exchange (LSE) and the first placing into the Horse Hill ramp - Evocutis (EVO). Next will be - I predict - Solo (SOLO). I also look at ISDX lobster pots and David Lenigas lies ref Afriag (AFRI).

Afriag - you have until 4.30 today to SELL or you are stuck in the lobster pot - the MMs are your guide

Shameless liar, share ramper and owner of a 100 foot yacht in the Monaco tax haven where he lives, David Lenigas has persistently spun the canard that ISDX is a more liquid market than AIM. We all know this is a lie. Investors in Lenigas Cuba know this is a lie. And tomorrow when Afriag (AFRI) leaves the AIM Casino and trades only on ISDX, its victims ( oops I meant shareholders) will discover that Lenigas is lying. Folks - you have just a few hours to sell - look at the spread!

A lot of references today to yesterday's podcast covering cats and Andrew Monk's puzzles (see HERE). Today I answer the money puzzles and I am afraid there is very bad cat news indeed. So I really dont care about shares and it was not a good day for a moronic disciple of David Lenigas with 9 followers to have a go at me on twitter. As it happens I have a few things to say about Jabba who I will be nailing for good within six weeks. I also look at Nomad resignations, Auhua (ACE), DQ Entertainment (DQE), Milestone (MSG), Litebulb (LBB) and then at Magnolia (MAGP) and the wider career of Gavin Burnell.

It is not, it is fewer tax breaks for the uber rich and I explain why chancellor Osborne should go further and tell the son of privilege Rees Mogg and others where to stick it. But first, someone accuses me of being jealous of David Lenigas as he is rich. Folks used to say I was jealous of Rob Terry's wealth and that is why I attacked him. Au contraire, fraudsters and shysters will always have more money than I but it is not their wealth that angers me but how they accumulated it as I explain for Judith W who - pathetically - posts:

Why Horse Hill shares are massively over-ramped - a top broker explains using UKOG's own maths

The ramp continues today with new flow data. But in a private email to clients a leading broker explains just why the Leni-maths does not stack up at all.

You will note that this broker has been threatened with legal action by David Lenigas before for daring to question him. But bravely, depite the bullying of Jabba, the broker notes:

Shameless ramping by David Lenigas & the Horse Hill Companies ahead of bailout placings

At least two of the companies involved in Horse Hill will go bust within weeks if they do not issue shares for a bailout placing and thus the ramping of today's (probably good but not great) news from Surrey was shameless with ther fat Aussie Share Pusher David "I won't say who made money from Danadav" Lenigas at the fore.

Jabba penned an article on his blog: Is the “Gatwick Gusher” real – hell, yes!  The owner of a 100 foot yacht in the tax haven where he lives, is as modest as ever comparing himself to the Wright Brothers and Galileo. He writes:

Then it is onto LGO Energy (TOAST) and its latest disaster. Then I move onto Leed Resources (LDP), Motive TV (MTV), Golden Saint Resources (GSR) and Canaccord (CF). One suspects the great analyst Saint Kevin of Ashton loved its disastrous numbers today as the banksters had a hot date with karma. This podcast contains strong language.

I commented in a recent Bearcast that Director's options should be set at a price so as to reward success not failure, and to align Directors' interests with shareholders.  Recently we have seen Debenhams reset Directors' option exercise prices downwards so that they can still be achieved despite failure and a crashing share price.  But this trick goes way back, and no-one is better at this 'move-the-goalposts' approach to performance management than Jabba The Hutt, David Lenigas.

David Lenigas - are you blaming hapless Neil Ritson or PR genius Steffi? Winding up notice at Solo Oil

Oh dear it is not a very good day for Jabba The Hutt is it? The latest bad news is that a first winding up order has been submitted to Companies house for AIM listed Solo Oil (SOLO) - see below. But who is to blame?

Is it hapless gopher Neil Ritson? Or PR genius Steffi ( at £3,000 pcm)? Or perhaps walking disaster Raylene Whitford of Sefton Resources squandermania infamy?

Of course the real issue

Afriag - David Lenigas caught lying in another RNS and hello again to an old friend from Lonrho

Where Yusuf fitted in at Lonrho and at Afriag in the world of tobacco is explained HERE. The original message reads:

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast 15 December - Fitbug tits up poll & is it Jabba or Chris Oil for the Christmas Carol?

The Mrs listened to me recording Bearcast today and said that I seemed very happy. Maybe it is the thought of the next Afriag (AFRI) article I am working on or perhaps it was the second painkiller of the day kicking in? Or maybe a truly moronic Bulletin Board Moron posting? In this upbeat mood I discuss who should feature in this year's three part Christmas Carol? Fat Aussie share ramper David Lenigas or market abuser Chris Oil? Or should I run two series? Then a discussion on when Fitbug (FITB) goes bust. After that - in a bad language section - I discuss Arian Silver (AQG) and its fucktard PR man Dominic Baretto. I move onto Plethora (PLE), Aveva (AVV), Concha (CHA), 88 Energy (88E) and Caza Oil & Gas (CAZ) before rattling off the names of a few other small oilers that really are zeros.

On reflection: Warning bad language throughout

Afriag - More questions for Paul de Robillard - tell us about the criminal investigation into Doltek Enterprises

Notwithstanding this David Lenigas vehicle Afriag's (AFRI) biggest investment is a 40% stake in another Robillard company (Afriag SA) involved in logistics. But here's a third Robillard company, Doltek.

David Lenigas panics over Afriag revelations and signs its AIM death warrant on twitter

Sometimes when the bad guys come under pressure it all gets too much for them and they panic and make a silly mistake. The Quindell "response to a blogger" statement actually gave proof of certain frauds. It was a blunder made in panic. And that brings us to David Lenigas who was so panicked by yesterday's Afriag (AFRI) bombshells and so effectively signed the AIM death warrant of the company with one single panicked tweet.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast 13 December - From a pain in the back to David Lenigas

I start with back news, not good but at least I have a handy tip for dodging passport control. Then it is onto the son of the late Brian Schneider of OEM infamy. He wants you and I to pay far more tax from our legitimate earnings though he has lived a privileged life - and still does - thanks to the proceeds of crime. He is a leading Jeremy Corbyn organiser. Right on Comrades. I look at Petropavlovsk (POG) and the idea of buying shares for the bid.  I move onto a new biotech IPO, Levrett. I explain why its a bargepole but also how the coverage of this in the Mail on Sunday (Simon Watkins) shows again the corrupt nexus between certain financial journalists and the PR world with an aim to dupe you, the investor. Then it is onto Jabba The Hutt's Afriag (AFRI) where I follow on from today's bombshell HERE and the follow up HERE by explaining the real problem it - and AIM - now faces.

Tobacco smuggling and a tale of two AfriAgs - the ghost of LonRho with David Lenigas

Note: There are two AfriAgs in this tale – a UK Listed AfriAg (plc) with the ticker AFRI.  Confusingly there is also a private South African company with the same name - AfriAg (Pty) Ltd.  I will refer to the UK company as AfriAg plc and the South African one as AfriAg SA.

Yes I have indeed done just that, or I think I have. The olive harvest saga continues and the snow has started on the mountains above the Greek Hovel, pictures later. In this podcast I look at Jabba The Hutt ramping Afriag (AFRI) and warn you what will happen next. Then a comment on LGO Energy (LGO) before heading onto PeerTV (PTV) and - in an unusual manner - I cover ValiRx (VAL). You see Satu I am a man of my word, Halosource (HALO) gets "the treatment" as does Gary Newman for buying into corporate bullshit speak. Then it is onto Photosntar Led (PSL), Fitbug (FITB) and finally InternetQ (INTQ).

The bad news is that there is a far larger share issue still needed.

Rare Earth Minerals – another way of looking at it?

Another hat tip to reader Rudyard. Jabba The Hutt, aka, David Lenigas is a share promoter, and a good one – so far at least - but the result is that shareholders in things like Rare Earth Minerals (REM) can end up over-paying. There is no doubt that the Sonora lithium deposit is very large, and in the fullness of time could generate substantial value.   But that misses the point, which is that Rare is an investment company and one should therefore look at the share price in terms of the current market value of the individual components.  This is important when you can get access to the same assets via investing directly, in other listed companies.

One good turn deserves another and following Big Dave’s black tie event on Friday (see here) we hear that down at the scrubs they are planning a charity event on B Wing for David “I drown my enemies in confetti” Lenigas. Noting that Lenigas Cuba might soon have to return most of its cash to mug punters and that LGO looks set to go tits up, a committee has been established to bail out Big Dave.  Details are sketchy but inmates are awaiting the imminent arrival of Mr Rob Terry of the notorious Fareham Five gang”

David Lenigas raising cash for Wormwood Scrubs at black tie dinner - can you help?

I offer no real comment about the favoured charity of fat Aussie share ramper David Lenigas. Whilst folks like market abuser Chris Oil and PR genius Steffi have been invited it seems that I am not on the guest list for tonight's black tie event. However an invitation has fallen into my hands. View this as a caption contest - do not hold back, be as cruel as you wish.

Lenigas Cuba – pure bollocks in its desperate RNS of today – I smell panic

The shares of Lenigas Cuba (CUBA) are taking another beating on ISDX today as folks desperately rush for the exit. But it’s hard to get out of a lobster pot so hey presto, Big David Lenigas rustles up a good news press release. But the problem is that the RNS is pure bollocks and everyone knows it. These days if Dave says 2+2 = 4 most folks would find themselves calling for Rob Terry to check Dave’s maths before believing the fat Aussie share ramper.

Lenigas Cuba IPO - a song for market abuser Chris Oil & fat Aussie share ramper big dave

Appropriately it is by The Primitives, aka those dumb enough to invest in this POS.

But the wider David Lenigas brand is also badly tarnished.

Did I read that there wil be a new Rambo film where he takes on ISIS? Bring it on. The quote is prompted by a threatening email received from the boss of a firm booted off the AIM casino. It will not wash. In this podcast I discuss Belzone Mining (BZM), aka Bellend Mining, Cloudbuy (CBUY), Inspirit (INSP) where I suspect the next news from the David Lenigas boiler room will be another placing, Sareum (SAR), Motive TV (MTV) and Getafix Stacey fave Feedback (FDBK).

Once again IT issues in Greece delay this podcast.

It is simply a transfer of wealth from business to the State, the poor will gain nothing.

Who would be your dream ramping team on the AIM casino for Ramptastic PLC?

In the long run a share price will reflect the NPV of future cashflows of a given company. In the short term it can go anywhere. Stocks can whizz higher purely based on aggressive stock promotion, .e ramping. So who would your ramping dream team be? As I sit having a coffee waiting for my car to get an MOT I have put together my own starting five.

All we need is a team of Andy Wings, a team of Andy Wings, sing the crowds at Oxford United and one is tempted to say that “All we need is a team of Lenigas, a team of Lenigas” but that would be to spoil the fun.

David Lenigas vs Doc Holiday Round 67 –Je Suis Charlie Holiday

Controversial entrepreneur Big Dave Lenigas is my pal. So too is outspoken blogger Doc Holiday. But the two men appear to loathe each other passionately.  And the latest step in this battle came with a twitter threat from Big Dave “I will block on twitter anyone who follows Doc Holiday”. Oooh er missus…

Blocking someone on twitter does not mean that you do not believe in free speech. There are numerous complete arseholes on twitter and they can tweet whatever nonsense they wish but none of us is obliged to have it pushed into our timeline. As such blocking someone is not a denial of their right to spout piffle, merely a sign that you choose not to read their piffle.

I block folks regularly. I do not wish to get direct messages from Jew Haters or from folks who tweet to me their desire to cut my throat or who tweet direct to me defamatory lies about me. Folks you can spout off as you wish but I have no interest in what you say so you are blocked.

Memo to David Lenigas & Others: We do NOT sack our writers for having an opinion

David Lenigas is tweeting his upset with James Parter for having suggested that Solo Oil (SOLO) is a sell and has suggested that Mr Parter is likely to be sacked. Let me make this 100% clear to my friend Mr Lenigas and to other CEOs out there who think that I sack anyone for having an opinion. I will NEVER do that.

Mr Lenigas tweeted:

david lenigas ‏@DavidLenigas  4h4 hours ago

@stevenr94125933 This guy is a class A fool and uneducated on the subject IMHO. My guess is he will be sacked first before solo halves. 

I do not have a view on Solo myself and so have no idea when Mr. Lenigas expects it to halve. But let me make this clear, we do not sack any writer for having an opinion. ShareProphets writers can arrive at whatever conclusion they wish about a stock: buy, sell, hold wouldn’t touch with a bargepole or whatever. That is their call.

For the avoidance of doubt neither do I claim to be a saint. However both Lenigas and Dan have come in for unfair stick in recent days and I explains why some of that criticism is so wide of the mark.

After the episode revealed here yesterday by Doc Holiday, marmite AIM serial CEO David Lenigas has announced that he is to stop tweeting. For a 50 tweets a week man that will be some cold turkey. I just hope he does not try quitting the fags at the same time.

David tweeted earlier:

UK Oil & Gas: David Lenigas Hits Back!

Earlier today we ran an article by Doc Holiday slating yesterday’s placing by UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) – you can read it HERE. I commented on the matter in my BearCast HERE.  David Lenigas has now been in touch and wishes to put the record straight. The contention regards a tweet David sent on Monday evening blaming shorters for the price being weaker, only for the company to announce a placing on Wednesday night – that is covered in full in Doc’s article. Here is what Mr Lenigas has to say:

Which David Lenigas stock do our readers think will gain the most this week?

At the weekend we asked readers which of the eight stocks where AIM marmite figure David Lenigas runs the show is likely to gain most this week. The start price for the shares was the Friday closing mid-price. We also gave a ninth option – that the FTSE 100 would outperform the lot. And so our readers said:

The deal of the day for today was undoubtedly the purchase by UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) of the UK assets of cash desparate Northern Petroleum (NOP). The man behind that deal was David Lenigas.

Here is Dave in video action at the UK Investor Show 2014 explaining why Uis so exciting.

ShareProphets (Prophets of Doom), REM, Bulletin Board Morons – a FINAL word

On twitter, on various bulletin boards and on the comments section here on ShareProphets  and elsewhere we have come under sustained attack for 24 hours – let me set the record straight. And then I can get back to dealing with the snakes, rats and bats that infest my home for the summer in Greece.

  1. Some commentators have stated that they have no sympathy with the threats made against myself, ChrisOil and James Parter by Bulletin Board Morons BUT… we have brought it on ourselves by being so bearish, etc. Bollocks. There can be no BUYS on this one. Making threats is illegal. And threatening writers because you disagree with what they say is just plain wrong. Anyone who cannot appreciate that there can be no BUT’s in this matter has a screw loose. I suggest they start their therapy by reading 1984 ref ThoughtCrime and follow that up with On Liberty by John Stuart Mill.
     
  2. Others attack ShareProphets

AIM Cesspit Awards 2014 Results & Dinner

The Sheriff of AIM is feeling rather fragile today in the wake of the AIM Cesspit awards dinner. Do not expect a great deal of output from me today. I had a good time and think that others did too. The wine and beer flowed freely, Evil Knievil and Lucian Miers gave good talks and David Lenigas pitched in with his thoughts on Nomads. A brave Quindell (QPP) shareholder turned up and was teased a bit but took it well. But you want to know who won.

Is a typo a hanging offence – ref Leni Gas & Oil?

Leni Gas & Oil (LGO) published an RNS last Friday which contained a typo. For this, my good friend Doc Holiday wishes to berate David Lenigas, also a friend. I think Doc is, on this rare occasion, wrong but I appear to be getting some flak for this on twitter.

The typo is in line one:

Company-wide oil sales, net to LGO's interest, totalled 111,774 barrels oil (2012: 58,450 barrels) an increase year on year of over 190%. 

That should read: 

Company-wide oil sales, net to LGO's interest, totalled 111,774 barrels oil, 191% of the 2012 total of 58,450 barrels.

You see the error?

Meeting Notes – Chat with David Lenigas

David Lenigas popped by earlier in the week for a chat on a number of matters. As ever the great man had a lot to say on a range of issues. But a few points stick in the mind.

1. The UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) shareholder who threatened and tried to bribe writer Doc Holiday is known to Lenigas and David was appalled by what was said and said that he would be “having words”. Lenigas and Doc may not see eye to eye on all matters but Lenigas condemned what had gone on in the strongest terms. His language was worse than mine when I am on a ranting roll.

BONUS Session announced for UK Investor show: “UK House Prices will Crash by 2020”

Surely 12 sessions and 44 speakers is enough for the UK Investor Show on April 5 in Westminster? Well it is but we had forgotten something: UK residential property. Problem fixed – we have squeezed in an additional debate with a bull and a bear.

You can read full details of the 44 speaker line-up headlined by Ben Edelman, Nigel Wray, Vin Murria, David Lenigas, Terry Smith, Mark Slater, Evil Knievil & Lucian Miers HERE

The debate is between two libertarian thinkers trained in economics. Richard Poulden will argue that there will be no crash. I shall argue that there will be one.

This is our sixth annual debate and the score is currently 3-2 to Richard. 

Our debates are informal if information packed. Hence we kick off this one at 9.20 AM as a sort of warm up for the main talks which start at 9.50 AM.  Doors open at 9 AM.

The show is as of today 81% sold out. If you want to get a ticket (while stocks last) you can book HERE

I met up the other day with David Lenigas who joined the board of AIM listed engineering group Inspirit (INSP) a couple of weeks ago. The shares jumped from 1.3p to 3.5p but have since retraced to 1.95p. So what is the story? - I declare that RMPC owns shares in this company
