Skinbiotherapeutics shares up thanks to Elon, Ai & the Lemming

Grok is the AI programme developed by Elon Musk’s twitter and for a bit of sport the Lemming investor invited it to see which of Optibiotix (OPTI), Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) and Probiotix (PBX) shares folks should buy. There is a big caveat here. The Lemming notes:

AI dissects the Lenigas bitcoin spoof Vinanz

The totally unexplained change of year end at David Lenigas bitcoin play Vinanz (BTC) announced after hours yesterday is yet another massive red flag as discussed in bearcast. At 17.5p a £45 million valuation is bonkers. It is not just me saying this, over to AI.

The magic of AI meets the toxicity of AIM: LungLife AI calls it a day, 176p to 2p in 42 months!

Everything with even a whiff of AI is flying. But most of the companies that say they will be AI plays are talking the talk rather than actually walking the walk. Talk is cheap. Anyone can do it. Walking is harder. LunglifeAI (LLAI) listed on the AIM sewer on July 2 2021 saying that it was “a developer of clinical diagnostic solutions for lung cancer enhanced by AI.” It raised £17 million on listing at 176p.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Am I a really mean, grumpy, old bastard totally out of touch with 2024? You and my siblings can judge

I start with me and reference my family Christmas meal planned for Shipston. Then it is keeping Lemming in suspense and Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX). The poor fellow. Then Active Energy (AEV), Oracle Power (ORCP) and Sealand Capital (SGCL), the AI bubble and odd share trades.

First Derivatives by FD technologies disposal: more ouzo for the sheriff with complete vindication

Back in June 2018, I opened my account on First Derivatives (FDP) urging you to short the shares at £46, a £1.2 billion market cap. The red flags were everywhere but natch everybody said I had got it wrong about a company which had picked up gongs at the AIM awards three times! Today that core business has been sold for an EV of just £230 million although the cash receipts are just £205 million. Complete vindication!

Another £19m spoof from the chancer Jonathan Bixby: Cykel AI to reverse into Mustang Energy, this is beyond parody!

A couple of years ago Bixby and his business buddy Mike Edwards were floating all things cannabis. Then the pot bubble burst and it was NFTs having dabbled into the bitcoin space before that bubble burst. Now, of course, it is AI and today we have another spoof. Those involved in enabling this sort of bollocks, should be ashamed.

Cellular Goods: how is this not insider dealing, it takes the AI bandwagon piss to boot!

Over the past three days, newly appointed executive director Mike Edwards has bought 8 million shares in Cellular Goods (CBX). His name is the contact on RNS he is calling the shots. Today he has announced a, laughable change of name and strategy. Just how on earth can this not be insider dealing. Do not tell me that this was all dreamt up yesterday afternoon, Edwards traded on specific price sensitive information.

Online Blockchain – do the maths – what is the cash position? ( hint its grim)

The blockchain to NFT to AI to whatever bandwagon is next entity run by ex ADVFN boss Clem Chambers with well remunerated help from his sons, that is Online Blockchain (OBC), must surely be running on vapours. Finally it seems that investors are waking up to the lifestyle joke that this is. Gone are the days when the shares were pumped by Clem’s pals allowing a placing at 100p. The shares are now just 13p.

Clem Chambers and Online Blockchain jump on the AI bandwagon – spoooooooooooooooooooof

It is only a couple of years since Online PLC became Online Blockchain (OBC). But blockchain is so old hat. Then there was the NFT spoof ( Rocky Horror division). What happened there? Er… So a  new “angle” is needed. Today Clem Chambers jumped on the AI bandwagon with Synthia, a total spoof. Surely it is time to change the name again?

Tom Winifrith Bearcast: Preening and greedy actors get to learn how it feels to be a fired supermarket worker: good!

I start with why I have reported a Predator Oil & Gas (PRD) shareholder to the Leicestershire OId Bill – #BoycottWoodlandsWholesaleNursery. I’ve had enough of it all and sooner or later some moron is going to get his collar felt. Bring it on. Then it is onto Versarien (VRS), Zoo Digital (ZOO), actors and porn actors and the march of AI, MGC Pharmaceuticals (MXC) and Argo Blockchain (ARB) whose shares are surging.

I am sure that Artificial Intelligence will change the world. It is a fascinating area as I have discussed in five episodes of TechCast. But that does not mean that AI might not create a stockmarket bubble. For into every boom the chancers are attracted.

Most journalists worry that Artificial Intelligence, AI, will in due course threaten their jobs. Zak Mir claims to be a member of the National Union of Journalists but, judging by an update from his Aquis listed Lift Global Ventures (LFT) yesterday, his work will only be threatened by advances in the development of Artificial Stupidity.
