I discussed Optibiotix (OPTI) selling 3% of Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) in bearcast yesterday HERE. As a result of the disposal I have cut my target for Optibiotix from 82p to 78p but the cash position is enhanced so it is de-risked. But I am pissed off, not least with the way broker Cenkos behaved. I think Cenkos should be fired. Here is how the conversation between Cenkos and O’Hara went ( I imagine):

IPO’d by Sam Smith, the woman celebrated by the sisterhood and woke media as the postergirl for feminists in the City, at 27p per share, shares in FinnCap (FCAP) are just 7.75p today after the publication of shockingly bad results for the year to March 31. Smith stepped down in September and within weeks there was an awful profits warning and the new CEO had to start slashing costs to survive. Then came a merger with also suffering Cenkos (CNKS), two drunks propping each other up. This is the legacy of Sam Smith, who told the Daily Mail she only stepped down to start getting some “how’s your father.” The reality is Smith fecked it up.

I start with some macro matters, base rates, house prices, the madness of Malcolm in buying housebuilders, etc. Then it is on to Currys (CURY) where Chris is wrong about the shares and where my experience as a customer is not good. Then its cash crisis ahoy at Colin Bird’s Bezant Resources (BZT) and finally when is it a good time to stand down as CEO and what can it mean, I refer to FinnCrap (FCAP) and to Pod Point (PODP) PS I reckon that FinnCap is due another profits warning PDQ as is its proposed merger partner Cenkos (CNKS).

It is another ouzo day here at Sheriff Towers as my bear dossier published on January 13 this year about ICG-longbow Senior Secured Uk Property Debt Investments Limited (LBOW), is now vindicated. The snivelling response on January 16 from Longbow and its advisers at Lagos Securities is now exposed for the fiction it always was. The shares were 51 before the dossier, they are now 36p, down 12% today.

On 29th April 2014 Rosslyn Data (RDT) raised £10 million at 33p as it joined the AIM sewer. As I demonstrated on this website, the prospectus prepared by Cenkos Securities (CNKS) was grossly misleading and it has been downhill ever since. Cenkos is still there as Nomad and broker after numerous (lack of) profits warnings, a CEO who forgot about his involvement in the porn industry, numerous bailout placings and other fun and games. I wonder how much coke & hookers money Cenkos has made over the years. The shares are now 0.725p after another awful trading statement today.

Thanks to Nomad and broker Cenkos (CNKS) and Dowgate Wealth management, the AIM sewer has a new recruit, a totally pointless investment company, Onward Opportunities (ONWD). This is not capitalism it is crony capitalism. The City boys will make £1.1 million in fees over the first 12 months. Even with inflation that will secure the services of many Ukrainian young ladies and buy stacks of Colombia’s finest. Meanwhile shareholders will almost certainly lose money.

It’s all an all share merger of equals, each side getting 50% of the enlarged equity, with every Cenkos shareholder getting 3.19420647 New FinnCap Shares for every one Cenkos held. A marriage of equals you say? That is to say two businesses that have been equally disastrous investments. Merge two bad companies and what do you get?

On Friday on the ShareProphets website I published a devastating bear dossier on ICG-Longbow Senior (LBOW) and as always, I signed off in my name. I have nothing to hide. I have been a journalist for three decades, longer than Cenkos has been acting for shysters. That dossier detailed the very dodgy CV of a key player and explained why the NAV was a work of pure fiction. Today Longbow has responded with a “portfolio update” which shows that it and its advisor Cenkos (of Quindell infamy) are nothing more than low grade liars.

In today’s podcast I look at Cineworld (CINE), Ocado (OCDO), Versarien (VRS), Rosslyn Data (RDT) – going right back to its fraudulent prospectus c.o Cenkos – and Westminster Group (WSG) where the curse of Baldry of the fraud 3DM infamy strikes yet again. Talking of vile Tory MPs, I mention Matt Hancock at the end. At least with Baldry his fingers were only in the pork barrel.

As predicted HERE the print going through late on Friday was Optibiotix (OPTI) dumping £2 million worth of Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) at 55p. I told you that this would happpen weeks ago producing more bluster and fake denials from all involved. Fuckers! The release this morning insults the intelligence of we loyal shareholders in both companies yet again. Stuart, Steve, posh PR bird Melanie Toyne-Sewell and the scumbags at Cenkos do you think we are idiots? You treat us as if we are.

I predicted that this was the plan and such a trade went through on the prints late on Friday. Both Optibiotix (OPTI) and Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) have declined chances I have offered (two for Opti) to deny the trade was as I speculate. So where does this leave shareholders in both companies and the, badly advised by scumbags Cenkos, Steve O’Hara?

I start with a few notes on horticulture here in Wales then move onto questioning my strongly held belief that Supply@ME Capital (SYME) is a worthless fraud. Then I explain why the recent Cenkos note on Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) is wrong and how via its website the company faces an acid test. Actually the website I refer to has now been amended as you can see HERE. But not before my contact placed an order. Finally I look at Vast Resources (VAST) and its shocking placing followed by even more shocking no-one is watching O’clock results.

Cenkos is house broker to Optibiotix (OPTI) so it is biased. I own a truck load of shares in Optibiotix so I am biased. But this 34 page note is detailed and may give you pause for thought. Steve O’Hara is doing an online presentation and Q&A tonight. I am not attending as I am washing my hair. Brokers notes and investor love-ins are all very well what I want to see now are material revenues and profits. And, while notes and presentations may tickle the share price, a material re-rate can only come from those sales and profits being delivered. I still believe that it will happen but I understand that others are bored of waiting. The full note is below.

As I explained in bearcast yesterday I have thought Cenkos forecasts for Optibiotix (OPTI) too cautious for a while. Yesterday’s update rather vindicates me. Anhow here is the house broker’s latest note.
1342 days ago
I think Optibiotix (OPTI) shares are very cheap as are those of Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) and am a loyal shareholder in both expecting to treble my money from here. Nor do I begrudge Optibiotix selling a few shares in Skinbiotherapeutics as it announced it had today as I imagine that will more than pay for a Nasdaq listing which may drive a re-rate. But I suggest that, in light of today’s events, a document signed by Steve O’Hara and Nomad and broker Cenkos is a worthless piece of toilet paper and both have legged over and deceived investors in Skinbiotherapeutics. Let me explain.

As I reveal that it is not only Versarien (VRS) up to no good in this respect but also Eurasia Mining (EUA), I wonder which other shameless PLC rampers are up to no good and will AIM Regulation do anything to stop an increasingly disorderly market becoming an open sewer? I look at retail shares and real estate plays on that as more evidence emerges that my very long term “avoid the lot like the plague” stance was correct. I look at changing brokers at Cenkos (CNKS) and Condor Gold (CNR) and Premier Miton (PMI) and what the AIM Casino demise of SalvaRx (SALV), where managers are talented, says about the dangers of backing a cash shell.

Okay AIM is loathe to boot off any company given how the World’s Most Successful Growth market is shrinking and Lagos Securities just wants retainers so will act for anyone, I answer my own question.

AIM dog Brady (BRY) will shortly be taken over by PE firm Hanover at 10p a share. If the deal is not supported by shareholders the company will go bust. I have already twice written to the FCA and AIM Regulation demanding that they investigate how Brady and its Nomad Cenkos mislead investors. Today the scale of that deception has become clear.

Last week I reported Brady PLC (BRY) and its Nomad to AIM Regulation and the FCA over material non disclosures. As a result, the former forced Brady to issue an RNS in which it came clean as to the horror of its financial position. Now it seems as if the latter is looking at my material and might just launch a formal investigation. The FCA has been in touch with its favourite investigative journalist and writes:

Make no mistake, Brady (BRY) and its POS Nomad Cenkos were forced to issue an RNS at 2.42 PM Thursday by the regulators and they did so because of the exposes by me on this website culminating in THIS. I look at where next for Brady, whether its partial ‘fess is still giving us the whole truth, at the shocking behaviour of research analysts at Cenkos and at why both company and Nomad now need hefty fines and a public censure.

Yesterday I revealed, HERE, the shocking way that Brady PLC (BRY) had withheld damaging price sensitive information from the AIM Market and investors, in part with the collusion of Nomad Cenkos. With the company now having to raise £3 million in just six weeks simply to meet November payroll but needing far more to be viable, it and Cenkos are still dissembling about the nature and scale of its problems. I have today written to AIM Regulation and the FCA asking for a formal investigation and to force Brady to come clean. The letter is below

In today’s bearcast I look at shitty little gold plays like Conroy (CGNR) and Condor (CNR) at their relationship to the gold price. I cover Burford (BUR) noting today’s interventions from two giants of the investment world: Carson Block of Muddy Waters and Roger Lawson of ShareSoc. I look at Providence Resources (PVR) a comedy set to end in tears, at Diversified Gas & Oil (DGOC) a tragedy set to end in tears and also at Neil Woodford and that Cenkos (CNKS) profits warning.

As I noted in my earlier bonus bearcast, Diversified Gas & Oil (DGOC) or its agents at Cenkos, Stifel and Mirabaud are almost certainly briefing the dumb fucker insitutions who own this stock that I do not understand IFRS 3 and so my claim that its accounts grotesquely overstate “profits” and must all be restated are hogwash. Au contraire…I now refer you to PWC.

It has now emerged that Brokerman Dan attacked what he thought I said about Angus Energy (ANGS) without actually listening to what I actually said despite us giving him a 24 hour pass for bearcast access. He spouts an awful lot of piffle in his latest article but declines to print corrections. Poor Dan. Oddly on one major point he is almost correct. Moving on, I also look at Cenkos (CNKS), Frontera (FRR), Rosenblatt (RBGP), i3 Energy (I3E), MySquar (FRAUD), Online Blockchain (OBC) and Kellan (KLN).

We now need just over £2,000 to reach our £20,000 target so if you have not yet sponsored me please do so HERE. Get us to target & I will shut up about it.

I look at Greka Drilling (GDL) and at UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) where Lyin' Steve is now really taking the piss with his 0.4p options. Finally I wonder how close is Totally (TLY) to needing a bailout placing. With Allenby of Servision (SEV) infamy and the chap who assisted Quindell (QPP) at Cenkos on board it has a broking dream team in place. I take a detailed look.

Nomad Cenkos was repeatedly warned by myself and others about the fraud at Quindell (QPP). It banked fees of more than £12 million and did nothing to stop the wrongdoing. In doing so it brought AIM into massive disrepute. Now there is evidence that it is turning a blind eye to horrific red flags at Mercantile Ports & Logistics, which at 8.5p is capitalised at £32 million. My target price is 0p but what the hell is Cenkos playing at? I break my break to deal with the errant Nomad - I have a score to settle here since some of the money it raised for the Quenron fraud was used to harass me with fascist lawyers letters..

The FRC is already looking at the grossly misleading way that Avanti Communications (AVN) bodged its June 2015 annual results.

But Avanti and its ghastly and morally bankrupt Nomad Cenkos, of Quindell infamy, are trying not to reveal the truth. So have five critical questions for Avanti and the shamed Cenkos.

The FCA will say that fining Cenkos (CNKS) £530,000 over the Quindell (QPP) fraud shows regulation is working. Au contraire. The narrow scope of its investigation, the failure to sanction individuals and the paltry fine show that assisting crime does pay if you work in the City. It sends out all the wrong signals and is a day of shame for the Square Mile as I explain in this podcast.

Whilst I see this as another moment of vindication for my work in exposing that fraud it is simply not enough. The FCA is telling the City's banksters that turning a blind eye to white collar crime does pay. Its coke and hookers all round if this is the best that the FCA can do.

Law firm YourLegalFriend will tomorrow launch an initiative aimed at pursuing both Quindell PLC and its current board of directors as well as Rob Terry in order to get back the vast losses suffered by investors in Quindell.
Yourlegalfriend is a well-established firm of lawyers run by Colin Gibson, a KPMG-trained accountant (nearly 10 years with the firm), who was later a listed company FD then CEO on first a main list then an AIM listed company for a total of around 8 years.
I have spoken to Mr Gibson and he understands the issues and is serious in pursuing this matter. I have urged him to widen the action into pursuing Canaccord, Cenkos, Daniel Stewart, Redleaf PR, Bell pottinger and KPMG and he states that as more evidence emerges that the scope of the action is likely to be widened. The release that will be issued tomorrow follows. I urge all Quindell shareholders who have lost money on this fraud to contact Mr Gibson and his team first thing tomorrow.
QUINDELL INVESTOR CLASS ACTION UNDER ACTIVE INVESTIGATION

If Quindell (QPP) was not in serious trouble with its Nomad Cenkos and facing an imminent suspension of trading in its shares it would have issued an RNS today. It did not. That deafening silence must set alarm bells ringing in the heads of even the dimmest of shareholders - are you reading Tom Dobell at M&G because that means YOU!
The Sunday Times said yesterday that Quindell was urgently seeking a new Nomad. Improbably sources close to Quindell said this was because it wished to draw a line in the sand. As I explained yesterday this is patent bollocks – see HERE.
My sources tell me that Cenkos has indicated to Quindell

What is happening at Quindell (QPP)? Blind panic is what is happening. That death is the outcome is now beyond all doubt, the only question is when and how. To win a bottle of freshly pressed olive oil from my Greek place enter our “when will Quindell shares be suspended sweepstake” here. This is fascinating as so many parties are involved.
One thing that could cause an immediate suspension of the shares is the resignation of Nomad Cenkos. No other Nomad will take this on and I have just had a source on the phone saying that Cenkos wants to resign, will resign and it is just a matter of timing. So who knows when a Cenkos triggered suspension could occur, but it could be at any stage.
Secondly there are the banks.

No apologies but this Bearcast contains strong langauge. Fraudster Rob Terry has dumped nearly all his Quindell (QPP) shares. It is time for the morons to apologise to me as I am now 110% vindicated.

I have just had a Quindell (QPP) shareholder on the phone. Not any old shareholder but a veteran of class actions. I warn you KPMG, Rob Terry and Cenkos you are potentially in big trouble, this man is very serious and knows exactly what he is doing. Ahead of that I examine what happens next for Cenkos, Rob Terry and shareholders. It is not pretty. And I now have new questions for the FCA about the scale of Rob Terry's insider dealing.

The stand in bosses of Quindell, The captains that will see the ship go under are Mr David Currie and the insider dealing Rob Fielding. Together with the insider dealing Finance Director Laurence Moorse they know that cash is well below market forecasts and that profits forecasts will not be met because there are gargantuan write-offs off goodwill and bogus revenues looming – that I proved today HERE.
In not communicating this to investors via RNS they are breaching AIM Rules and arguably committing market abuse. As such I have written today to AIM Regulation and the FCA, cc’ing in the money grabbing bastard chumps at Nomad Cenkos, requesting that Quindell make an immediate statement fessing up to its true financial position but also that Mr Currie, Mr Moorse and Mr Fielding be investigated for breaching AIM Rules and potentially also market abuse. I write:

Today's revelations on Quindell (QPP) are shocking. How do the Morons feel now knowing about the wage deferral, that they were mislead about the cash position on October 13 (market abuse) so they bought shares and Rob Terry, Laurence Moorse and Steve Scott were able to sell. How do they feel about that? You guys were suckered. Now you need to stop getting angry with me and start directing your anger towards a board that has stolen your cash.
But it is worse. The Company now knows that market forecasts re cash generation in H2, re the cash position and re profits are all hopelessly wrong. It has allowed meaningless staff memos to be leaked to reassure you but in fact its senior staff already know the grim truth. It is again a breach of all sorts of rules not to have told investors. But sadly you folks were kept in ignorance and have averaged down. You now need to show anger against Quindell for that. And against Cenkos for not keeping its cienmt in line. Cenkos has made £12 million from Quindell in the past 12 months and has real questions to answer.
On Monday these shares should be suspended and Quindell needs to admit the grim truth. The suspension should only be lifted if Quindell avoids administration which is unlikely and when it can fathom out the depth of its problems.
Following that perhaps I might get an apology from those I have tried to warn since April 2013 but in earnest since March this year. "Dear Tom, we are sorry for the death threats, the abuse, the lies we spread about you and Real Man, we are booking a table next week and will leave an enormous tip as a way of sayng sorry, yours A Moron"

Market abuse covers many sins but one is to give a misleading impression of the value of securities as a result of false statements. Quindell had told investors that it would achieve cash breakeven in Q3 2014. In fact it managed to beat this target thanks to a number of covert measures which hid the true picture. This is market abuse (FCA) but also a breach of AIM Rules. I have therefore written to both the FCA and AIM Regulation and cc’d in the hapless chumps at Nomad Cenkos demanding an urgent investigation. I write:

Okay the company is dormant. It does nothing at all. But at least it is honest about that fact unlike most companies on the Casino.
It has net assets of £1 (which is a lot more than many companies on the Casino if their accounts were not quite so bent). And the name…Snake Oil Ltd. Perfect. This company could pursue a buy and build strategy taking over so many companies on AIM and with its name it would be open about what it does.
Sadly I do not think it is floating but if Cenkos is looking for a new client to replace Quindell when it goes bust…

For those who think the directors of the 5 AIM Casino Companies doing business with Equities First Holdings LLC took out a loan here is a bit of required reading. And if Cenkos thinks that the stock "loaned" by Rob Terry of Quindell (QPP) has not been dumped ages ago then its chumps should read this too.

In this BearCast Special I explain exactly how Equities First Holdings LLC operates. When it sells the shares AIM directors transfer to it and why that means that ALL of the AIM directors involved have broken the law. That is Quindell (QPP), IGAS (IGAS), Cloudbuy (CBUY), IQE (IQE) and Angle (AGL). There then follows the misleading statements. But then I turn to the negligence of Nomads, Cenkos, Canaccord and Hanson Westhouse and why that should be career ending for some. And the to why Equities First and its employees should be struck off by the FCA. This scandal is enormous and for many involved professional disgrace is the least of their worries.

In response to a number of requests I have created another Quindell (QPP) downfall video featuring all your favourite characters in this gripping tale: Rob Terry, Laurence Moorse, Cenkos, Equities First Holdings LLC, Steamy, bullyboy lawyers Schillings, Canaccord, Daniel Stewart, foxy Bex at Redleaf PR, Paul Murphy and Dan McCrum from the FT, the FCA and of course the press chearleaders for the bulls, Shares Magazine and Zak Mir.
My last Quindell downfall video was recorded when the shares were 138p. You can watch it here.
The shares are now 69p.

I many not be at my sharpest but I am not pulling any punches as the Quindell scandal deepens. This podcast covers Quindell, Daniel Stewart, Cenkos, KPMG, the lies, the fraud, the implosion and what the fallout will be. I also look at blinkx ( dire results & another Sheriff win), warn you about African Minerals and look at stocks on a PE of less than 1.

I have this morning tried to shake off the most almighty of hangovers caused by the Quenron (QPP) celebrations of last night, by penning an open letter to Cenkos, Nomad ((pro tem) to the fraud Quindell. Cenkos needs to force Quindell to make a statement now regarding margin calls that Rob Terry, Larry Moorse and Steve Scott must be facing.
Their loan agreements with Equities First Holdings LLC which allowed them to dump vast amounts of shares pretending that they were buying have a default clause agreement which means that if the Quenron share price falls below a certain point the three crooks, I mean directors, must either default, hand over more shares to Equities First or hand over cash. I am sure that they will go for option two (handing over more worthless shares) which Equities First will then dump. But investors need to know this information and need to know now. Hence the letter to Cenkos which natch I have cc’d in to AIM Regulation and the market abuse team at the FCA. It reads.

Sorry to bother you again Cenkos, you bunch of incompetent and sleazy money grabbing crony capitalists, but perhaps you can help us all by stating at what price the fraudster Rob Terry has to put up margin on his “loan” ( aka share sale) agreement with Equities First Holdings LLC.

As you might imagine I am on a bit of a high. The writers on this website have done a sterling job in starting to drag the truth out of Quenron (QPP) and the liar and fraudster Rob Terry and his half witted Nomads at Cenkos. Today's statement is a disaster for Quindell and its shares have tanked. But as I explain in this podcast we still only have half the truth about Terry and his share dumping. Worse is to come.

Lets nail this once and for all. The RNS put out by Quindell (QPP) on 5 November 2014 suggesting that Rob Terry had increased his holding in Quindell (QPP) was a lie. Cenkos signed off on that as Nomad. Cenkos issued a note on Friday 7 November 2014 and was lied to by Quindell. I demonstrate why Quindell is lying and explain how Equities First Holdings LLC works. I cite sources which are refered to below. Cenkos needs to come clean on Monday or it is royally in the merde alongside Quenron

I have only just driven across Ireland and arrived at Ballymaloe to record this but there is plenty to discuss in this hard hitting podcast. Oh yes it is very hard hitting indeed. On the agenda: Quindell (end game) and Cenkos (lies), Coms ( a bombshell revealed), Radiant Growth, China frauds and Daniel Stewart, Sefton, APR Energy (political risk generally) and African Minerals (vindication and 0p on the cards). Ouch, its stinging all round.

Tonight we party. I am a very happy bear. The Real Man Christmas party is now a V Party. that is V for Victory and V for Vindication. Quenron (QPP) is on the ropes. In today's podcast I cover Quindell, President Petroleum, Tern and my old "mate" Angus Forrest, Camkids and China frauds, Cenkos, Forte Energy, mining juniors and more.

Rob Terry you are a liar, a fraudster and now I also accuse you of insider dealing. I shall not rest until you go to prison you low life vermin criminal. For today we discovered that you and your FD Laurence Moorse and NED Steve Scott sold vast numbers of Quindell shares while withholding price sensitive information – that Canaccord, your joint broker and sponsor of your failed main market listing application had quit.
The rats at Canaccord told Quindell they were quitting on 21st October giving one month’s notice. Quindell has today brought forward that departure date to immediately. Or rather I suspect Canaccord has done its maths and demanded to go at once.

The Sunday Times has today unearthed evidence of the cash crisis at Quindell (QPP). Listeners to bearcasts here will not be suprised by this news. So what does Quindell do now? Will the sad excuse of a Nomad that is Cenkos let it respond or must the shares be suspended at once. In an angry and hard hitting podcast I lay out what lies ahead as the shit hits the fan and the shares become worthless. Events are now moving at light speed, the word "vindication" is on my lips.

There are numerous reasons why the fraud that is Quenron should be booted off the AIM Casino altogether but recent developments would force a responsible regulator and a Nomad who gave a dam (so maybe that does not apply to Cenkos) to suspend the shares first thing on Monday.

Rob Terry of Quenron (QPP) is today once again exposed as a liar of monumental proportions. Even the money-grabbing leeches round at Nomad Cenkos should by now be considering their position as I expose today’s £140 million lie told by Mr 2+2 can = 5.
Shares Magazine promised its readers a hard hitting interview. Bollocks! This is a blow job on paper. No questions about TMC, Himex and the accounting fraud. None about the RNS lies. This is cock-sucking journalism, an embarrassment to our trade. But the gem is a lie that Mr Terry tells unchallenged about his cash position. Let me quote from Shares magazine:

Hapless lapdog broker to Quenron (QPP), Cenkos has admitted that its client has “streamlined” its payroll procedures, Quindell has not clarified what occurred but in light of its claims about its cash position it needs to do so fast.
Quindell claims that net cash was pretty much unchanged between end June and end September at £19.7 million. However it claimed in August when publishing its interims that net cash had increased in July which means that it fell in August and September despite the company netting a windfall of up to £10 million from flogging shares that it had issued to itself when buying PT Healthcare.
I put it to you that the underlying cash position is grim, may well because Reg cap if not operational issues and that trends in recent months are adverse. The Reg cap issue is – I am sure – being monitored closely by the FCA.
However we now come to the issue of when staff are paid.

I am afraid that my lead hit a dead end so there is no nuclear hand grenade for Quindell (QPP). Yet. However ….
1. There are a large number of subsidiaries who had to file accounts by yesterday. I guess we start trawling them when I have the energy. So far trawling Quenron subsidiary accounts has proved most illuminating and one can only wonder what we will find this time.
2. The analyst at Cenkos, Ms Andy Bryant,

I see that various Bulletin Board Morons accuse me of threatening 4,000 jobs at Quindell (QPP). Just for them, I offer a basic lesson in markets and economics.
For starters Quindell will not go tits up or prosper and join the FTSE 100 (ho, ho, ho) because of what I or anyone else writes. In the long run if it generates the cash that its lackey retained analysts at Cenkos and Canaccord predict it will prosper. Of course it will not and that is why it is doomed. Ultimately it is not about press comment but about cash generation or, in Quenron’s case, lack of it.
I do not wish unemployment on anyone and the vast majority of jobs will in Quindell’s case not be lost. If the Holding company – that is Quenron PLC – goes bust then head office staff in finance, the board, HR , etc. will lose their jobs. You are talking dozens of folk here. The administrator will then attempt to sell the individual business units. There are c 54 subsidiaries.

All the players in the Quindell (QPP) tale are in there: Rob Terry, Laurence Moose, Mark Ford, PR girl Foxy Bex, Steamy from the ridiculous QPPSAG, Cenkos, Kevin Ashton, Daniel Stewart, Gotham City, ebola, the UKLA and Canaccord. I hope you enjoy watching as much as I enjoyed producing this video.

In the run up to September 30th Quindell (QPP) faces not only a critical cash crunch but also the unpleasant task of filing annual returns for a host of associate and subsidiaries and these will – I guarantee – prove to be a veritable red flag forest. The first of these reports is now in, Brand Extension, and this will shock even the #QPPSAG as they ask where shareholders cash has gone. Do Nomad Cenkos and broker Canaccord – to whose compliance department this article is going – have no qualms about this company?

Cenkos, Canaccord and Daniel Stewart are the three City firms that have made most money from listing Quindell (QPP), advising it and helping it raise cash. For these three City firms Quindell has been an enormous money spinner. And the last published research reports from these three fine houses all advise investors to BUY Quindell stock with price targets a multiple of where the shares are now. But ….
While these firms want their clients to buy shares in Quindell as it keeps the gravy train on the road would these firms risk their own capital investing in the company? Facts speak louder than words.
I start with Daniel Stewart.

The rules of AIM are pretty simple and are based on the underlying principle that you cannot tell a blatant lie to investors. To do so is arguably market abuse and it is certainly a breach of AIM rules. If the AIM Cesspit is to have any credibility those who break the rules must be punished and punished publicly. I have therefore written this morning to both the FCA and to AIM Regulation asking both to launch an urgent investigation into both Quindell PLC (QPP) and its Nomad Cenkos after today’s PT healthcare RNS farce/lie.
The letter follows.
Dear Sirs.
As a great supporter of the work you do to retain the high standing of the AIM casino I feel duty bound to bring to your attention the activities of Quindell PLC and its Nomad Cenkos. To issue statements via RNS or in an annual report which are not true

Canacord is joint broker to Quindell (QPP). When Gotham City published its dossier Canacord withdraw its “buy” recommendation on the stock and said that its stance was “under review”. Almost two months later it is still “under review”. WTF is going on?
Quindell’s other broker Cenkos has reinitiated its coverage with a “buy” stance. I have discussed the nature of broker research on corporate clients recently HERE and I would frankly expect BOTH of Quindell’s paid brokers to be saying BUY. So what is Canacord analyst Kevin Ashton – a sharp and decent fellow – not saying Buy?

The winner of the inaugural AIM Cesspit IPO of the year trophy was EastCoal (ECX) a Canadian listed company which secured a dual listing on the Cesspit on December 28th 2012 raising £9.5 million at 12.21p thanks to Cenkos. By February 8th it had issued its first warning of operational woes.
