Evil Banksta keeps sending me pictures of the enormous City Christmas lunches which he attends on a daily basis. At this rate his girth will soon be surpassing that of London’s worst Nomad, Roland “fatty” Cornish. But will his New Year fine dining be subsidized, yet again, by Adam Reynolds and Belluscura (BELL), the gift that never stops giving to short sellers?

The interviewer offers one of the greatest blow jobs in stockmarket history. This is a hoot. He and Neil Woodford agree that the disgraced fund manager is a man of supreme talent and integrity who has been treated unfairly. Apparently the collapse of Woodford’s funds was all down to unfair press comment. Whatever. And there was I thinking that while this website exposed Woodford from 2015 with more than 1000 videos, podcasts and articles, the Mail, FT, Sunday Times and the rest of the MSM were kissing his arse almost to the end. If you have 90 minutes to spare this is a hoot from a parallel universe. Enjoy..

Polymers company Victrex (VCT) has recently announced results for its year ended 30th September 2024, helping the shares rise to above 1100p, but still comparing to above 1500p at the start of 2024 and above 2500p in 2021. However, the results also included some indications that there could be further share price recovery potential from here and that’s with a strong balance sheet and above 5% dividend yield to boot.

A profits warning from Shoe Zone (SHOE) will be gutting for shareholders as the stock is off by 44% at just 80p. Steve called this correctly and is justifiably smug today. The real losers are staff who will be losing their jobs just in time for Christmas and the company does not pull its punches: the finger of blame is rightly pointed at Rachel from Customer Services. One again “Labour is not working”.

Shares in property investor Conygar (CIC) have dived by 15% today to just 49p after some pretty shoddy results. But the company wants you to believe that its NAV of 103p per share at the September 30 year end is real and that things are going to get better. Mr. market clearly does not believe it. And must be worried about the high level of gearing too.

In its last RNS of 29 November, Catenai (CTAI) made the following statement “The Company continues to carefully manage its working capital position.” This isn’t that surprising because in its interim accounts to 30 June 2024 Catenai had net current assets of £566,763 but this included cash of just £4,759. Within net assets was a loan note receivable of £450,000 plus accrued fees of £117,500 totalling £567,500 due from Klarian Limited. So, the loan represents the majority of its assets.

This looks to further demonstrate the exploration, as well as production, potential we’ve been emphasising here. And this is critical for Nalunaq on its own justifies a premium to the current share price but it is the massive exploration potential that will attract potential corporate bidders within a couple of years. The faster Amaroq explores, getting results like these, the more a bidder will have to pay.

Over at Celadon Pharmaceuticals (CEL) auditor Graham Bond of RSM signed off on 13 May 2024 after the Post Balance Sheet Fundraise on 10 May 2024 noted in the accounts. Given the fund raise was specifically highlighted as a relevant factor in the going concern assessment, the auditor RSM should have audited the note carefully given he must have relied on Fundraise to issue a clean going concern opinion.

I now have four crab apple trees in my new upper orchard, there mainly to ensure the cross pollination of apple trees old and new around the farm. But they also yield their own fruit. Had I harvested a couple of weeks earlier I would have got around 8 lbs as quite a few apples have dropped to the floor and started to rot. Instead I came away with just over six lbs which were cleaned and then with the stalks removed cut in half and left to stew. The water could not get too hot as that would have destroyed the pectin on the skins which is the binding agent. Eventually the apples were soft enough to mush and that mush was left to drain through a muslin cloth overnight.

In Operation Mincemeat, in 1943, British Military intelligence dressed up a dead tramp as a Marine officer, floated his body carrying details of a planned invasion of Greece onto the Spanish coast knowing that the bogus plans would find their way to the Germans. The Germans fell for it and diverted tanks, boats and men from Sicily, where the allies really were going to land, to Greece. It was a triumph. There are two books written about the operation and both mention the underpants placed on the body but only in Ben Macintyre’s 2010 account, on which the Colin Firth film is based, is there real detail. Unfortunately, Macintyre engages in dramatic conceit and gets it all wrong. I start, once again, with those 4 young girls photographed in the late 1880s.

What was I smoking? I try to forget my entry point into Seed Innovations (SEED). I can’t think why I wanted some exposure to what I had, correctly, identified as a bubble in cannabis stocks but almost as soon as I bought the bubble burst. It is not a major investment and these days it is a very minor one. Today I was so close to calling my broker and calling it quits. But I did not and here is why…

Analyst Michael Pento, from Pento Portfolio Strategies. Pento argues that due to a massive debt-to-revenue ratio and persistent deficits, the USA is insolvent. He links this to the Federal Reserve’s negative real interest rates since 2002, which led to a $7 trillion increase in its balance sheet, tightening bank lending standards, and an inverted yield curve for a record length of time. Pento expresses concerns over credit bubbles, particularly private debt, that have reached alarming levels, but credit spreads remain quiescent.

So, there was no need for a placing. That was just the talk of scaremongering motherfuckers like yours truly.

Maybe, as the man who describes himself as the founder of British technical analysis, something that happened in the year he turned one, Mr. Zak Mir reckons that fundamentals do not matter and thus he has no need to reveal hugely adverse price sensitive information to investors in his Lift Global Ventures (LFT).

Today Joe Biden pulled out of the race.I look at this, his replacement as the Democratic nominee, Kamala Harris and what a fascinating slew of polls last week tell us about the race. I also look at shifting sands in Ukraine.

The liberal media is wetting itself with excitement that a female person of colour is going to be the Democratic nominee for President. Okay, so polls only last week showed that Kamala Harris would do even worse than Joe Biden against Donald Trump in battleground states and her national popularity ratings are lower than even the senile old sniffer of the hair of young girls. The Libs reckon that Kamala will beat Trump. I hope they bet the ranch on it. I quite like the idea of Jon Sopel having to live in a cardboard box. Anyhow if you think Kamala is the answer have a watch of this video from the great Mark Steyn covering a Kamala speech a year ago. Every US voter needs to watch it before November.

Given that Eight wrote its investment in the bond down by £14 million in their accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023 despite have been assigned first priority over the entire security package of assets provided by TAG suggests that it not that confident that Alessandro Zamboni’s company, which has failed to provide promised funding of just a couple of million quid to Regtech Open (RTOP) and the Supply@ME Capital (SYME) fraud is good for the €73 million.
